Steps:
- SAUTE: Add olive oil and minced garlic to a cold, large saucepan. Heat over low heat. The garlic will take 3-4 minutes to start sizzling, when it does, crank up the heat to medium, add the red pepper flakes, tomato paste, onion powder, and ¼ teaspoon pepper and allow the tomato paste to bloom and cook for 1-2 minutes or until it deepens in color and becomes a dark maroon. Stir often so it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
- BOIL: Add the apple cider vinegar, sugar, and stir to combine. Pour in the water and bouillon cubes, turn the heat up to high and bring to a boil. When boiling, lower the heat to medium-low, add the pasta and stir to combine. The soup should be simmering but not too rapidly; cook the pasta for 12-16 minutes (typically, it takes 1-2 minutes over package instructions but start checking at the time the package indicates.) Stir often with a wooden spoon to make sure the pasta isn't sticking to the bottom of the pot. Test the pasta for doneness. When it's fully cooked, and the liquid thickens to a thicker consistency, stir in the cheese. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired. Serve the SpaghettiOs in bowls, top with additional grated cheese before serving, if desired.
