LINGUINE WITH TUNA PUTTANESCA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook until al dente.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and crushed red pepper and cook, stirring, until slightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the capers and olives and fry 2 more minutes. Crush the tomatoes into the skillet with your hands and reserve the juices. Cook until the tomatoes are slightly dry, about 2 minutes. Add the reserved tomato juices, the basil, and salt to taste and cook until the sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tuna with its oil, breaking it up with a fork, and season with salt.
• Drain the pasta, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water, and return it to the pot. Add the sauce and the reserved cooking water and toss. Season with black pepper and garnish with more basil.

TUNA PUTTANESCA

Steps:

• Place a large pot of water over high heat and bring up to a boil. Salt the water and cook penne to al dente.
• Meanwhile, heat a large skillet with 3 turns of the pan extra-virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes, cook a minute or 2, then add tuna and break it up with your spoon. Add olives and capers, cook a minute or 2 more, then add vermouth or white wine; stir and cook down a minute. If using whole tomatoes, place a colander over a bowl, crush up tomatoes with a wooden spoon, then add tomatoes and their juice to pan. Otherwise, stir in diced tomatoes and juice. Add parsley, zest and black pepper, then simmer the sauce a couple of minutes more.
• Add a couple of ladles of starchy pasta-cooking water to the sauce. Drain pasta, add to the skillet and toss to coat. Serve with some nice crusty bread.

SPAGHETTI PUTTANESCA (EXTRA TUNA REMIX)

Steps:

• heat pan on low heat. mash both cloves garlic--wooden spoon, heel of hand, whatever--and separate into two equal portions.
• put anchovies and a few tablespoons of their packing oil in pan. take half the garlic and add to anchovies. add cayenne pepper. saute on low heat (hotter, and it'll make the garlic bitter) until anchovies are "dissolved" and garlic is fragrant.
• increase heat, and once pan begins to sizzle, add tuna. stir tuna into mixture, and coat bottom of pan. leave tuna without stirring until it begins to brown. add can olives, and liquid from can.
• add can tomatoes and liquid, add remaining garlic, and mix in well. add capers. add the thai fish sauce. (keeps the tuna from overpowering the anchovies without having to use the additional nutritional nightmare that is the rest of the anchovies.) reduce heat, stirring occasionally.
• in separate pot, boil a few cups of water seasoned with a few tablespoons salt. cook pasta until al dente. drain pasta in a colander.
• remove sauce from heat, pour into pasta pot. pour pasta back into pasta pot. stir.
• serve with garlic bread, caesar salad (good use for the rest of the anchovies), and ground black pepper to taste. will probably not need parmsesean cheese or salt. would be good with a red wine like a valpolicella.

SPAGHETTI PUTTANESCA

Steps:

• Cook the spaghetti in salted, boiling water until al dente. Meanwhile fry the garlic, capers, olives, anchovies, chiles, and oregano in a little olive oil for a few minutes. Add the tomatoes, bring to a simmer, and continue to cook for 4 or 5 minutes, until you have a lovely tomato sauce consistency. Remove from the heat, plunge the drained spaghetti into it, toss it over, and cover with the sauce. Rip all the basil over it, correct the seasoning, and drizzle with good extra-virgin olive oil.

SPICY TUNA PUTTANESCA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup pasta water.
• While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Once oil is shimmering, add onion, Kalamata olives, capers, anchovies, and garlic. Cook and stir until onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Add crushed tomatoes, white wine, and red pepper flakes. Stir to incorporate.
• Nestle the tuna steaks into the sauce, cover, and cook until the tuna flakes easily, about 10 minutes. If sauce is too thick, add in the reserved pasta water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Add in the Italian seasoning.
• Serve tuna and sauce on top of cooked pasta. Garnish with basil if desired.
