You rinse pasta if you want to get rid of extra starch and if you are not going to use it at once after you drain it, otherwise it will all stick together into one piece.

It's not that you wash it but you run it under the cold tap and it stops it cooking further. Because if you just drain the water off of it, it will still cook.
