Pasta with Tomato and Basil

Pasta with Tomato and Basil

@ziacris

🤷‍♀️ What could be better than a quick and simple dish to comfort us, without too much effort? A traditional recipe, but always full of warmth and poetry 💛... and super economical! In this recipe, I intentionally used nickel-free tomatoes for those who are intolerant, but you can use the puree you prefer. 🍅 The sweet taste of the tomato matches the aromatic semi-fresh basil 🌿. But both are accompanied hand in hand by a burst of flavor: that of fermented black garlic! ✨ Don't worry, it's so delicate that I recommend it even to those who don't tolerate it: try it to believe it!

Preparation

  1. STEP 1 OF 5

    Put the water on the stove and weigh the pasta. Chop the onion into pieces.

  2. STEP 2 OF 5

    In a tall saucepan, heat the extra virgin olive oil with garlic and onion. I recommend crushing the garlic cloves to release their aroma, otherwise leave them whole for a milder taste.

  3. STEP 3 OF 5

    After they have browned, add the puree and when it starts to "bubble," season with salt and pepper to taste. Leave it on the heat for another 5 minutes and once turned off, add the basil.

  4. STEP 4 OF 5

    Cook the pasta and add the salt. Drain one minute earlier than the instructions and toss the pasta in the sauce, on the heat for 1 minute. This way it will finish cooking, absorbing the seasoning better.

  5. STEP 5 OF 5

    Serve the dish as soon as it's ready and have a good amount of bread ready for the "scarpetta"!
