Puttanesca Sauce

Our hearty puttanesca-style tomato sauce contains pine nuts as well as capers and green olive pieces, giving it a flavor and fragrance that recall a blend of mustard, black pepper, and lemon. Uses; Puttanesca tomato sauce is traditionally served with spaghetti or, alternatively, with penne. Add anchovies for a saltier version, or a spoonful of Favuzzi hot chili pure or spicy Italian herb mix if you're in the mood for extra heat. It's also a great starting point for a chicken cacciatore recipe. Authentically Italian pasta dishes are not served swimming in sauce. Average proportions are 375 mL tomato sauce for 500 g pasta. Don't throw away all the pasta cooking water: it's a good idea to add a bit to your sauce. Mix in ¼ to ½ cup (or a ladleful) cooking water with the sauce before adding the pasta. The salted, starchy water will enhance flavours and thicken the sauce, helping it stick to the pasta. Contains: Pine nuts. May contain: Milk.
