The slightly different spaghetti

Cook the spaghetti al dente and let it cool. Finely dice the onion, finely chop the garlic, and mash it with a fork. Quarter the cherry tomatoes. Gently toss everything with the cold spaghetti and olive oil. Season to taste with balsamic vinegar, spices, and Tabasco (or chili for a spicier twist). Let it sit in the refrigerator for about 2 hours. Season and garnish with fresh chopped basil before serving.
