Pasta water is in fact an excellent thing to save... As a cooking ingredient.
Specifically, what you can do is freeze it in an ice cube tray, and then store the cubes in a Ziploc. A handful of cubes added to a soup, stew, stock or sauce will give it a smoother, more silky texture thanks to all the starch.
