Instructions

1

Finely chop the onion and garlic.

2

Heat the olive oil in a frying pan. Add the garlic and chili pepper, and when fragrant, add the canned diced tomatoes. Cook over low heat until the liquid is reduced by half.

Note:

Scrape the pan with a spatula and cook until you can see the bottom of the pan.

3

Add the onion and squid to the pan from step 2, and cook over low heat until the squid changes color.

4

Add the white wine, water, granulated bouillon, and squid ink paste to the pan from step 3. Cook over medium heat until slightly thickened, then season with salt and black pepper.

5

Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti for 1 minute less than the package directions, then drain.

6

Add the spaghetti to the pan from step 4 and toss until the sauce coats everything evenly.

7

Plate the pasta from step 6 and top with Italian parsley.

    It tastes even better if you use more squid ink paste. If you follow the recipe as written, the tomato flavor comes through a bit too strongly.

    This is incredibly delicious!

  • 🇯🇵 User from Japan

    The squid changed color in an instant, so the onion didn’t cook through enough and tasted too sharp.

  • 🇯🇵 User from Japan

    It was too sour. It didn’t taste good.
