Use any large pot in your hand, but keep in mind that a long and slender stock pot will be due to low surface fields, which can make your sauce a bit more. On the other hand, if you use a wide briding pan, the water will evaporate very quickly without having enough pasta water to make cheese sauce.
Be sure that when the noodles are cooked, The liquid is barely below the bottom of the noodlesThe If it is not and too much liquid becomes vapor, Add about 1/2 cup of chicken broth Before making your sauce
