Spicy Tomato and Squid Pasta
A simple way to warm a heatproof serving bowl is to put it in the sink with a colander inside of it. When you drain the cooked pasta into the colander, the pasta water warms the serving bowl. This is also a good way to capture some of the cooking water, in case you need to loosen the pasta sauce.
