This is something I've been thinking about quite a bit lately. Obviously there is no one answer to this question and that perhaps makes it an interesting question to really delve into as a personal exploration.
I suppose for me, good food is food that we enjoy making and sharing with people we care about. I really love simple food, that does not have a lot of ingredients, but those few ingredients are fresh and delicious and (this is cliche) warm.
That's probably how I would put it.
I will always associate pasta with warmth and home. Even more so now that I am preparer of the food at my home. Pasta is a loving food.
And spaghetti is my favorite pasta, hands down.
1 box of whole wheat spaghetti
10 oz of cooked white beans
16 oz or so of chopped tomatoes
4 cloves of garlic chopped fine
oregano
3-4 chopped kalamata olives
salt and pepper
grated Parmesan (optional)
Great with a Columbia River Valley(OR/WA) Riesling or a Willamette Valley(OR) Pinot Gris.
