I have never once oiled my pasta water. I have also never once had my pasta stick. Just add enough water, boil, salt, pasta. Cook til it's done, I literally never stir the pasta. Test for texture every so often. Drain, save some water for marrying with the sauce better.

Edit cool -> cook ty autocorrect.
