If you want your pasta to be al dente, then make sure to continuously check and taste it as it cooks. Avoid overcooking pasta because then it turns into a big pile of tasteless mush. Not to mention that overcooked pasta has a higher glycemic index, which is not great if you're watching your weight! Also make sure to never add a lid to the pasta as it boils, otherwise it will change its shape and consistency.
