Pasta is about as cheap a food ingredient as there is. I PERSONALLY would TOSS IT and start fresh.
Why? What hal suggested is exactly what restaurants do if they're not cooking fresh pasta. They cook portion sizes of pasta until it's not quite al dente, and then they put the pasta into plastic bags. Not at any good italian restaurant, or any decent dining establishment. A truck stop wouldnt even do that.
