Default A General Pasta Comment

Maybe you all know this or not. Chefs on TV will say not to wash your
cooked pasta because the starch that is on the surface of the pasta
helps to stick the sauce to it.

Following that logic, I wash my cooked pasta in warm water to remove
the starch which would quickly turn to glucose. Although I haven't
done any controlled experiment, it just seems to make sense for us type
2's to wash our pasta.

Do you wash?
