The dry spaghetti from Barilla really sticks for me if it's been more than a minute since I drained it

    You have at most 15 seconds to thoroughly mix your pasta with the sauce.

    Nobody in their right mind would ever let pasta sit without sauce.

    Once I had to watch while some people strained the pasta, let it there and then started chatting about something else. They were wondering about why I was going crazy and then they complained the pasta stuck together...

    Please, don't let your pasta sit unattended. Also, Barilla is not a particularly good brand of pasta.

    I'm not a master chef, so the sauce or whatever it's going in isn't always ready at the same time. I also don't really mind when pasta sticks. It is definitely something that happens, but it's just a silly meme and it's (usually) just dry pasta.

    Don't leave your pasta hanging.

    It's in a pot. I have to wonder if this is a fresh vs dry thing

    I mean, the fresh stuff is certainly better. Also, Barilla isn't that awesome. I don't know what you have available, but I live in Italy and I never buy Barilla. (Although I'd like to thank them for being a large contributor to my adopted city's finances.)

    But yeah, time things so that the sauce is ready when the pasta becomes ready. The sauce won't suffer for sitting for a few minutes.
