The back-pocket recipe I turn to when I have no idea what to make for dinner.
Traditionally its just spaghetti, garlic, and olive oil.
The garlic infuses the oil, which coats each strand of spaghetti with robust flavor.

Add the olives, parsley, and wine, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
Add the drained pasta along with 1 cup of the reserved pasta water.
Add more water as needed.

Finish with black pepper and a sprinkle of salt to taste.
The key to making the most delicious version of this recipe is to be very patient with the garlic.
You want to cook it over very low heat to ensure that the garlic infuses the oil without burning.

Burnt garlic is bitter, and it will ruin the sauce.
Will you have garlic breath after eating this?
Will it be worth it?
