  • Simmer for 20 minutes more, uncovered, then dilute the sauce with a little hot water and simmer for a half hour more, covered (sauce's consistency can be adjusted to your liking).
  • 30 minutes before meal, cook pasta al dante.
  • now you can add the ink to the sauce, as much as you like.
  • serve sauce over pasta with the rest of the white wine.

This pasta dish was okay. The calamari ink added a bit of a fishy flavor to the dish, which I didn't love. The pasta was also a bit overcooked for my taste. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this recipe.
