Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the gluten free pasta according to package directions until just al dente — tender but with a slight resistance at the center. Drain in a colander and set aside. (Gluten free pasta continues to soften in the oven, so pull it 1–2 minutes before fully done.)
