That looks good, although I’m not sure about the squid ink. Does it add much flavor, or is it mostly for appearance? I’ve not yet had the opportunity to try it.

I think the answer is both. It does make an impressive looking dish.
It was not as strong tasting as expected; pasta was ready-made.
Plus the garlic & shrimp were pretty strong tasting.

I also bought some squid ink liquid to make my own. I think it may depend on how much ink you add to the pasta.
I'll let you know !

I made up another batch of Squid Ink Pasta w/ Shrimp, to use up the shrimp in the fridge.

I tasted the pasta after cooking, but before adding the toppings. (It was a $$$ Italian brand.)

The flavor was a little “briny” and a nice subtle savory.

After checking some recipes for making my own Squid Ink Pasta, it seems most recipes don’t actually specify the amount of ink to add.

“Add as much as you like”.

Nice to know, thank you! I will definitely put that on my “need to try some day” list.
