4. Deglaze the pan with the white wine, stirring to lift any browned bits, and let it reduce by half.
5. Stir in the squid ink and cherry tomatoes, cooking for another 2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
6. Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing to coat; if needed, add reserved pasta water to achieve a silky consistency.

8. Serve immediately, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
