While I was grocery shopping, I came across a pack of frozen mixed seafood in the meat section. Since I had some leftover squid ink pasta at home, I thought it would be a great opportunity to try making a mixed seafood pasta dish.
It also happened to be the first time I’d ever seen squid ink pasta in a supermarket, so I decided to buy it and give it a try. Curious to experiment with the combination of flavors, I was excited to see how the seafood would pair with the rich, savory squid ink pasta. It felt like the perfect chance to try something new and create a unique pasta dish using ingredients I hadn’t cooked with before.
The idea of combining seafood and squid ink pasta seemed like a delicious and adventurous twist, so I eagerly set out to prepare it.
