Depression Spaghetti Recipe 55

V-8 SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Boil pasta and drain.
• Place pasta back in pot on warm burner.
• Add just enough tomato juice so your noodles won't stick to the pot.
• Add salt and butter, stir until butter is melted.
• In a separate bowl mix sour cream with tomato juice by adding a few tablespoons of tomato juice at a time until sour cream and tomato juice mixture is runny and well mixed through (this is done so the sour cream does not curtle when mixed with the hot pasta).
• Add mixture and remaining tomato juice to pasta, stir and serve immediately (when left to sit, the pasta will soak up the juice and it will taste slightly different). I like mine best fresh, that's why I make it a bowl at a time. I also never measure anything for this recipe. All amounts can be adjusted to suit your personal preference. These measurements are simply a baseline.
