Or do you leave the spaghetti sticks long?

Always break them in half personally

If you break the spaghetti, you no longer have spaghetti.

What you have is a weak bloodline and a name that no one will remember.

No, especially since spaghetti and angel hair are among the pastas I eat the least.

Or you can just stick one end in and let it sort itself out.

If you put them in the pot they quickly soften and the rest falls in

No I do not.
But it does amaze me how little people understand Italian food.

I break them.

If I don't break them then there's too much sauce left behind once all the spaghetti is gone. If I break them then the pot is completely empty and there's no leftover sauce/meat.

No reason to break pasta unless you're doing something extremely specific like pasticcio.

They'll usually soften and be under the water within 1-2 minutes. Unless you mean wide enough I guess?

Why would you? When it starts cooking it all slides in anyway and that way you get nice long noodles

The way to put them in the pot is like pickup sticks.
Which is to say interlaced. If you do that, and move them when they getting cooking you will have no issues.

Whats the difference between breaking it yourself or buying it pre-broken? Oh, probably costs more to buy the pre-broken pasta
