PASTA PUTTANESCA



Pasta Puttanesca image

This sauce is named for ladies of the night. They would place pots of it in their windows to tempt men into the bordellos. I like it because it's spicy, fast and easy (no disrespect to the ladies).

2 tablespoons (2 turns around the pan) extra-virgin olive oil
4 to 6 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tin flat anchovy fillets, drained
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
20 oil-cured black olives, cracked away from pit and coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons capers
One 32-ounce can chunky style crushed tomatoes
One 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes, drained
A few grinds black pepper
1/4 cup (a couple of handfuls) flat leaf parsley, chopped
1 pound spaghetti, cooked to al dente (with a bite)
Crusty bread, for mopping
Grated Parmigiano Reggiano or Romano, for passing, optional

Bring sauce to a bubble, reduce heat, and simmer 8 to 10 minutes.

Time 21m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

⅓ cup olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste
1 teaspoon dried oregano
3 anchovy fillets, chopped, or more to taste
2 (15 ounce) cans diced tomatoes, drained.
1 (8 ounce) package spaghetti
½ cup chopped pitted kalamata olives
¼ cup capers, chopped

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with water. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
  • As the water heats, pour the olive oil into a cold skillet and stir in the garlic. Turn heat to medium-low and cook and stir until the garlic is fragrant and begins to turn a golden color, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the red pepper flakes, oregano, and anchovies. Cook until anchovies begin to break down, about 2 minutes.
  • Pour tomatoes into skillet, turn heat to medium-high, and bring sauce to a simmer. Use the back of a spoon to break down tomatoes as they cook. Simmer until sauce is reduced and combined, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook the pasta in the boiling water. Drain when still very firm to the bite, about 9 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water.
  • Stir the olives and capers into the sauce; add pasta and toss to combine.
  • Toss pasta in sauce until pasta is cooked through and well coated with sauce, about 1 minute. If sauce becomes too thick, stir in some of the reserved pasta water to thin.

PENNE WITH ROASTED CHERRY TOMATOES



Penne With Roasted Cherry Tomatoes image

This exquisitely simple recipe came to The Times in a 2001 article about Paola di Mauro, an Italian winemaker in Marina, a small town southeast of Rome. She was one of a band of cooks who helped distinguish "cucina casalinga," roughly translated as "housewives' cooking." From her humble kitchen, Ms. di Mauro mentored some of the best Italian chefs and restaurateurs in the United States, including Mario Batali, Lidia Bastianich, Piero Selvaggio and Tony May. Her recipe is easy and calls for just five ingredients - cherry tomatoes, olive oil, pecorino romano and penne pasta - but get your hands on the best ingredients you can afford. Ms. di Mauro intended this to serve four as a first course, but if you're making this for dinner, double the recipe.

Time 35m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound small cherry tomatoes, halved
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil, plus 2 to 3 tablespoons for tossing
Sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup freshly grated pecorino romano, more for serving
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1/2 pound penne

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line bottom of casserole dish with cherry tomatoes in a single layer, halved side up. Pour oil on top, season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle cheese and bread crumbs on top. Bake until tomatoes have wilted, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Season with enough sea salt so that water tastes mildly of salt. When tomatoes are just about done, add penne to water and cook until al dente (it should be pliable, but still firm in center). Scoop out about a cup of pasta water and reserve. Drain pasta and add to casserole. Fold tomatoes and pasta together, adding another 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil, to coat. Taste and adjust seasoning. If it is dry, add a little reserved pasta water. Serve, passing more grated cheese at the table.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes: This will give your puttanesca sauce a rich, sweet flavor. You can use fresh, canned, or even sun-dried tomatoes.
  • Don't be afraid to add some heat: Red pepper flakes or chili peppers can add a nice kick to your sauce. Just be careful not to overdo it, or you'll overwhelm the other flavors.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: This will help to bring out the flavors of the other ingredients in your sauce. You can also use a flavored olive oil, such as garlic or basil olive oil, to add even more flavor.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Pasta should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. This will help it to hold its shape and not become mushy in the sauce.
  • Serve immediately: Puttanesca sauce is best served immediately after it's made. This will allow the flavors to meld together and create a delicious, cohesive dish.

Conclusion:

Red pepper penne with cherry tomato puttanesca is a delicious, easy-to-make pasta dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. The sauce is made with a variety of flavorful ingredients, including red peppers, cherry tomatoes, olives, and capers. It's tossed with penne pasta and topped with Parmesan cheese.
