Preparation & Use

Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil, approximately 4 to 6 quarts per pound of dry spaghetti. Add the pasta and stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook 8 to 10 minutes for al dente or 10 to 12 minutes for softer texture. Drain immediately and toss with sauce or oil to prevent clumping. For baked dishes, undercook by 2 minutes since the pasta will finish in the oven. If holding for buffet service, rinse briefly with warm water, toss with a small amount of oil, and keep covered in a warm holding cabinet.

Common Applications

Costa Spaghetti is a versatile workhorse across menu styles. Pair it with classic red sauce and meatballs for a traditional Italian-American plate. Use it as the base for spaghetti carbonara, aglio e olio, or puttanesca in scratch kitchens. For family-style service, portion into half-pans with sauce on the side so guests can customize. It also works well broken into 2-inch pieces as a soup pasta or mixed into cold pasta salads with vinaigrette, vegetables, and protein for deli cases and catered lunches.
