Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons olive oil
2-3 cloves garlic, minced (or pressed)
Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
7 tablespoons tomato paste
½ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
¼ teaspoon sugar (optional)
4 cups of water
2 chicken bouillon cubes (or vegetable)
2 cups dry anellini pasta (or ditalini will work too)
⅓ cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese

Steps:

  • SAUTE: Add olive oil and minced garlic to a cold, large saucepan. Heat over low heat. The garlic will take 3-4 minutes to start sizzling, when it does, crank up the heat to medium, add the red pepper flakes, tomato paste, onion powder, and ¼ teaspoon pepper and allow the tomato paste to bloom and cook for 1-2 minutes or until it deepens in color and becomes a dark maroon. Stir often so it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
  • BOIL: Add the apple cider vinegar, sugar, and stir to combine. Pour in the water and bouillon cubes, turn the heat up to high and bring to a boil. When boiling, lower the heat to medium-low, add the pasta and stir to combine. The soup should be simmering but not too rapidly; cook the pasta for 12-16 minutes (typically, it takes 1-2 minutes over package instructions but start checking at the time the package indicates.) Stir often with a wooden spoon to make sure the pasta isn't sticking to the bottom of the pot. Test the pasta for doneness. When it's fully cooked, and the liquid thickens to a thicker consistency, stir in the cheese. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired. Serve the SpaghettiOs in bowls, top with additional grated cheese before serving, if desired.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

16 oz tomato sauce*
2 Tbsp tomato paste
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/8 tsp dried thyme (optional)
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tbsp honey (optional)
6 Tbsp milk
2 Tbsp butter
1 cup packed cheddar cheese, shredded (about 5 oz)
2 cups small pasta, about 8 oz (ditalini if you're shopping in store, or anelletti for the traditional O-shaped noodles)*
additional salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Start with the pasta and cook, on medium-high, al dente, according to the directions on the package, stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, combine tomato sauce, tomato paste, spices, milk and butter in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. The honey is optional but adds the signature "sweet" taste that you're used to in spaghetti O's. If you add it, add it with the milk and butter.
  • Add cheese and stir until melted. Turn heat to low until pasta is done.
  • Strain pasta when done and portion into serving bowls.
  • Ladle finished sauce over pasta, adding more sauce for those who like it saucy!
