Do not over cook pasta: it will swell up and taste very stodgy.
It is also likely that any sauce used to flavour and garnish the pasta will thin and not appeal to customers.
Equally, pasta that is undercooked will be too firm to digest with a leathery texture.
Appearance

Remember: you only get out what you put in.
Aroma
Image of pasta served with aromatic sauce Pasta dishes flavoured with garlic, fresh herbs, tomato and or cheese will have a pleasant aroma.
Where old or inferior products are used, the pasta might be dull in flavour and appearance.
