I Tried the Viral Red Wine Spaghetti Recipe, and Here?s What Happened Since both cooking Spaghetti in tomato sauce and Martha Stewart's one-pot pasta hack turned out to be total failures, I had to see if the same was true for Food and Wine's Spaghetti cooked in red wine. Spoiler alert: it was the opposite. Thousands of people, like me, were intrigued by the publication's recipe video that went Viral on Facebook, so I had high hopes that the pasta would taste as delicious as it looked. The verdict is in, and all I can say is this fast and easy dish will ** doubt be added to my regular dinner rotation. The recipe involves simple pantry staples (salt, olive oil, garlic, red pepper flakes, parsley, walnuts, and parmesan), but the red Wine adds a slightly sweet, rich flavor that's unlike anything you've had before. I used Cabernet because that's What I like drinking, but you could use any dry red wine. You boil an entire bottle of Wine (plus a little more from a second bottle) with a few cups of water before cooking the pasta al dente. The fascinating part is the **odles transform colors as they cook. What starts as regular Spaghetti quickly develops a deep, purlish red as it absorbs the liquid. Many of our tasters mistook the **odles for whole-wheat Spaghetti and even soba. As a hardcore pasta-lover, I was pleasantly surprised how light, flavorful, and sophisticated this pasta dish turned out. I'm obsessed, but I'm **t the only one. Other taste testers (aka my co-workers) made comments like, "I love this. I can't get e**ugh." "Simple and tasty." "Literally amazing." So, without further ado, it's your turn to try this amazing technique. Get the recipe: Spaghetti cooked in red wine
