Notes
If you want to serve it cold, drain the pasta and then allow it to cool to room temperature. I like to spread the spaghetti on a sheet pan so it cools off faster – you can pop it in the fridge, too, to speed it up. Once the noodles are cooled, toss them with the sauce and other ingredients. You can serve it right away or chill it for a few hours before serving.
