This is great advice and took me far to long to learn; I also tend to spare a little pasta water to pour over the pasta at the end, and remember to stir a ton!
For first timers, start w penne. Also, caveat: if using a gf replacement like banza, the noodles both seem to absorb less water, and expel more starch into the water. so the mod is to put about an inch of water extra than what you would normally use for flour pasta.
