I am planning to make squid ink pasta, but I do not have pasta machine. Since I am lazy, I want to boil dried pasta in squid ink water. Will it turn black...or not black enough?

    You can make hand rolled squid ink pasta. Then you wouldn't need a pasta machine and you could have black pasta.

  • In that case, you can certainly purchase squid ink pasta.

Boiling it in ink will give some flavor and color, but it won't be part of the pasta. Instead, you could make a squid ink-based sauce to toss it in afterwards. Here's an example recipe: https://www.thespruceeats.com/spaghetti-al-nero-di-seppia-2018653

  • I planned to mix it in hollandaise-carbonara situation which was a bad idea. Yours is better solution
