Once your water starts to boil, add pasta all at once. As the pasta softens, give it a stir so that all the pasta sinks into the boiling water. Angel hair pasta is very thin. It cooks in about 2 to 4 minutes.Source: Unknown

    Ever wonder why you see numbers on packages of pasta, like Thin Spaghetti #9? In the early days, Irish, German, Italian, and Asian immigrants worked in pasta factories. They spoke so many different languages it was difficult for the factory managers to give instructions. In order to convey the distinctions between the various noodles, pastas were given numbers so that the employees understood which pasta they would make that day. "Today, we are making #9."
