I hope your spaghetti turned out well, Holly. You got good advice here. To add to the mix: I've gotten away with not salting my water; I like the flavor of pasta. I know they say to use a lot of water, but I've gotten away with doing a whole box of spaghetti in my four to five quart pot with

You might not want to go through the trouble, but I do what I read in a magazine: surround ice cubes with paper towels (I use maybe two or three), and go through your liquid. It works pretty well for me. I do this I'd say two or three times. Good if you don't have hours to wait for the fat to
