1
recipe Simple Tomato Sauce (made using the choices of 3 to 4 tablespoons
extra-virgin olive oil and 3 cloves garlic, minced)
4 anchovies, minced (optional; see note)
16 to 24 piquant olives, such as kalamatas, pitted and chopped coarse
2 tablespoons capers, drained
Follow
the Simple Tomato Sauce recipe, stirring anchovies into the sizzling
garlic until they soften and adding the olives and capers along with
the tomatoes.
Yields
enough for 1 pound pasta; 4 to 6 servings.
Note: Even if you are not an anchovy fan, there is a good chance you
will not taste them. As Anderson notes, they are there to add depth
to the overall flavor of the sauce. |
