This sauce does not require the addition of hot pasta cooking water, but the starchy water does help to finish your pasta sauce. Depending on what consistency and texture you like, you may add some pasta water—a little at a time—when you add in the hot pasta to the saucepan. The starchy pasta water helps sauces to stick to the noodles and also loosens thicker pasta sauces. It’s always a good idea to save 1 cup or more before draining your pasta.
