    To cook linguine pasta, all you need is: a cooking pot, colander, tongs, water, salt, olive oil, and a package of linguine pasta. First, pour the water, oil, and salt into the cooking pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Then, reduce the heat to medium and add in the linguine pasta. While cooking, occasionally move the pasta around with kitchen tongs so it doesn’t stick together. Cover and cook the linguine for 12 minutes. Finally, drain the pasta through the colander and serve.
