I was feeling like pasta tonight and we still had a lot of fresh organic grape tomatoes from our produce box so I thought spaghetti puttanesca made with wheat pasta would be a good choice.
From Wikipedia:
Basic Recipe
Chopped garlic, diced onions and anchovies are sautéd in olive oil. Chopped chili peppers, black olives, capers and diced tomatoes are added along with salt and black pepper to taste. The cook then reduces this mixture by simmering anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes depending on the amount of sauce being prepared. Once cooked, it’s poured over spaghetti cooked al dente. The final touch is a topping of parsley.Some cooks add either precooked tuna or salmon to the sugo just before pouring over pasta to provide protein. Others serve protein on the side.
Recipes may differ according to preferences. In most cases, however, the sugo is a little salty (from the anchovies), spicy (from the peppers) and quite fragrant (from the garlic). Traditionally, the sauce is served with spaghetti, although it also goes well with bucatini, linguine and vermicelli.
