I have seen squid ink pasta but never eaten it, I just love seafood, this looks scrumptious!
I first tried it in FLorence, Italy .
It taste just a bit salty than the othet tasteless regular pasta and thought of making a recipe with it myself for a change.
👌
Squid ink pasta always looks so weird but amazing when combined with more brighter colored food. That's definitely a dish that I would enjoy eating and you've explained the recipe perfectly.
I swear, I had the same weird feeling when I first tried it a year ago 😀 that's why I have to explained it well or elese it will look more weird, lol
I love unusual-looking food and the way it surprises my tastebuds...yumm
Indeed
STOPI love your post format. I'm tempted to use the kitchen, thinking of taking a plane ticket to Italy
Squid ink pasta? Never heard of that one before. It looks yummy. We'd probably make it differently over here. We don't put milk in our sauce, 😂.
I have no clue what to do with my self in the kitchen but maybe I will try this one with normal pasta without flour or milk though.
