I love light sauces over pasta and came up with this one with squid to go over taglierini. I usually have on hand either fish or clam base and would substitute a broth for water. This goes good with a loaf of Italian bread for dipping into the sauce.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in celery, shallot, and garlic, and cook and stir until lightly browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Blend in water, wine, lemon juice, sauce mix, and basil pesto. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
- Stir calamari, frozen peas, and capers into the sauce. Continue to simmer until squid is opaque, checking frequently to avoid overcooking, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook taglierini pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 6 to 9 minutes. Drain.
- Season calamari mixture with salt and pepper. Serve over cooked pasta.
