Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds vine-ripened tomatoes, room temperature
1/4 cup fruity, extra-virgin olive oil
About 1/2 cup coarsely chopped soft-leafed herbs, such as basil, tarragon, marjoram, and spearmint
1/2 cup coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley
4 ounces ricotta salata cheese, crumbled
12 ounces dried spaghetti
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, plus extra for the table
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Drop in the tomatoes, cook for 15 seconds, and then transfer them to a large bowl of cool water. Slip off the skins and cut them in half through the middle. Poke out the seeds with your finger, and roughly dice the flesh. Warm a large ceramic or glass mixing bowl by rinsing it with hot water. Toss the tomatoes in the bowl with the olive oil, mixed herbs, parsley, and ricotta cheese.
  • Bring the large pot of water back to a rolling boil, add the spaghetti, and cook until tender but still firm. Drain and add it immediately to the tomato mixture in the bowl. Sprinkle with the Parmigiano. Toss with tongs or two wooden spoons until the pasta is evenly coated. Add salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Pass extra Parmigiano cheese at the table.

This recipe is a waste of time. The sauce was tasteless and the pasta was overcooked.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sauce turned out too watery. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more garlic and chili flakes next time.
