My boyfriend keeps putting oil in the pasta so "it won't stick together" when cooking, despite me having told him multiple times now that that's just a myth.

Wouldn't a simple test show the truth? Aren't you able to cook it one or more times to show who is correct?

You'd be right in the case of how restaurants keep noodles and pasta readily available where they half-cook it then keep bundles in warm oil so they could throw it in the pot and cook the pasta to order. The pasta won't stick while it's just hanging around in the oil. That's fine.

But once that pasta is in the rolling boiling water, the oil ain't gonna do jackshit and if your pasta is sticking, you're doing it wrong anyway because you are probably just letting it sit in the pot too long.

The oil isn't going to get a chance to stick to the pasta and then stay there because the boiling water will just send it flying off, and when the pasta itself is sticky, you overcooked it, or you let chunks of it float at the surface where all the starch starts getting deposited on said above-surface pasta and start making it stick. Again, because you left it alone in the pot too long.

It may not help with that, but it DOES help to prevent boilover.

exblain. Is there any reason it would make sense to do this when you're cooking pasta at restaurant scale?

why would they need to prove to their SO that they're correct? Honestly, if these are the kinds of issues that OP has in their relationship, they should shut the fuck up.
