Recipe Notes

Do not rely on the package to give you the correct cooking time (this is only a guideline). Start timing when the water returns to a boil. Most pastas cook in 8 to 12 minutes. Test dry pasta for doneness after about 4 minutes of cooking by tasting it.

Additional Tips

  • For a deeper flavor in your tomato sauce, slow-simmer it for at least 30 minutes, adding a splash of pasta cooking water towards the end to help emulsify the sauce and coat the spaghetti beautifully.
  • If you enjoy a spicy kick, sauté a few dried red chili flakes with the garlic in your oil; this step infuses the oil and gives the entire dish a subtle, authentic heat.
  • Finish your plated spaghetti with a generous drizzle of high-quality extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh basil just before serving to maximize aroma and visual appeal.
  • Leftovers can be transformed into a baked pasta: layer the spaghetti in a baking dish, top with mozzarella and a bit of grated Parmesan, and bake until bubbly and golden for a comforting next-day meal.
