SPAGHETTI ALLA PUTTANESCA

Steps:

• Start boiling water for the spaghetti. Add salt once it starts to boil and bring to the boil again.
• Meanwhile prepare the ingredients. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Peel, de-seed and chop the tomatoes. If anchovies and capers are salted rinse them under cold water. Then cut anchovies into small pieces. If they are large, remove the spine. Remove the seeds from the red chili pepper (if you are using it) and cut into small pieces.
• Heat some olive oil in a frying pan large enough to hold the cooked pasta later. Add the garlic, anchovies, and red pepper flakes (peperoncino).
• Cook over a medium heat until garlic is very lightly golden and the anchovies have melted, about 5 minutes. (Adjust heat as necessary to keep it gently sizzling.)
• Add capers, a bit of parsley and olives and stir to combine.
• Add the peeled and chopped tomatoes, stir and bring to a bare simmer.
• Cook pasta to just under al dente (about 1 minute less than the package recommends).
• Drain pasta reserving 1 cup of the cooking water.
• Add drained pasta to the sauce.
• Add a few tablespoons of the pasta cooking water and increase the heat to bring the pasta and sauce to a vigorous simmer.
• Cook, stirring and shaking the pan and adding more pasta water as necessary to keep sauce a little liquidy until pasta is perfectly al dente.
• Sprinkle with some more parsley.
• Season with salt and pepper as required.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, warm the olive oil, garlic slices, anchovy filets and crushed red pepper flakes over medium heat. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring as the garlic becomes fragrant and the anchovies begin to break down. Use a wooden spoon or chopsticks to mash the anchovies a bit and incorporate into the oil.
• Add the tomatoes and cook for 5-10 minutes for the sauce to reduce and become rich and jammy. Add the drained capers and olives.
• As the sauce cooks, bring a large stock pot of water to a boil with 2 tablespoons of kosher salt. Add the spaghetti and cook 2 minutes less than the package instructions. Transfer the cooked pasta to the sauce, toss, and continue to cook for 2 more minutes. Add slivered fresh basil leaves and serve with grated Parmesan.

PASTA PUTTANESCA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil (2 tablespoons) in a large deep skillet or pot over medium heat.
• Add anchovies (2 oz.), garlic (5 cloves), and red pepper flakes (1/2 teaspoon). Keep an eye on the heat and bring it down to medium-low or low if needed; the garlic should cook and soften but not burn. Stir frequently to dissolve anchovies (about 5 minutes).
• Add the canned diced tomatoes (28 oz.), the chopped olives (1/2 cup), the capers (1/4 cup), and the parsley, if using (2 tablespoons).
• Let the sauce simmer, covered for 10-15 minutes. Add the spaghetti (or other pasta, 16 oz.) to the now boiling salted water. Cook according to directions on package until just before al dente.
• Use tongs or a slotted spoon to transfer pasta directly to the sauce. Transfer about 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water to the sauce as well. Stir to coat, and continue heating on low heat until pasta is fully al dente and the sauce has thickened and sticks to the pasta well (about 3-5 more minutes). If it seems dry at all, you can add a little more pasta cooking water about 1/4 cup at a time until it's the right consistency.
• Serve, sprinkled with parmesan cheese, extra parsley, and black pepper if desired.
