Forgetting to Stir the Pasta

If you've ever drained a pot of noodles only to find that half of it is sticking to the bottom, or there's uneven texture, you probably didn't stir it enough during the cooking process, if at all. Once you've added the pasta to boiling, salty water, stir it right away with a large wooden spoon so the pasta doesn't stick together. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking and keep the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pan as well. You should also choose a large enough pot that's going to give the noodles plenty of room to grow.
