HOW TO FREEZE PASTA:
Cook the pasta to al la dented based on the package instructions.
Drain the pasta and toss the pasta in a small amount of olive oil to keep the pasta from sticking together.
Allow the pasta to cool completely at room temperature.
Flash freeze the pasta by placing the pasta on a baking sheet in a single layer making sure that the pasta does not clump together.
Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 1 hour and then move the pasta to freezer bag. Remove as much air as possible out of the bag, seal and freeze.
HOW TO THAW PASTA:
Thaw the pasta overnight in the fridge. Then place in a microwave safe dish topped with a small amount of butter. Cook on medium for 3-5 minutes until the pasta is heated through.
