Pasta Arrabbiata - Penne in Spicy Tomato Sauce – Pareve version

👨‍🍳 Method

For the Tomato sauce

1. 1
   In a bowl, mix the tomatoes, olive oil and garlic with the salt.

   ⚙ Pan-fryingStoveFrying pan
2. 2
   Add and fry 3 minutes, until the peppers soften.

   ⚙ Adding to the hot fat and fryingStove

   💡Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.
3. 3
   Add and stir about a minute, until fragrant.

   ⚙ SimmeringStove

   💡A gentle simmer, not a boil: a hard boil dries the food out and clouds it, a slow simmer cooks it evenly.

For the Cooked pasta

1. 4
   Cook the pasta in plenty of boiling salted water (4¼ cups of water and a heaping teaspoon of salt for every 4 oz of pasta), following the package directions (taste about 2 minutes early), until al dente.

   ⚙ Cooking in salted waterStovePot

   💡The water should taste like a seasoned soup, not like sea water: a heaping teaspoon of salt per liter. Add the salt once the water is boiling.
2. 5
   Reserve cup of the cooking water before draining.

   ⚙ Saving the cooking waterLadleorMeasuring cup

   💡The cooking water is starchy: a spoonful or two binds the sauce to the pasta or the gnocchi and makes it glossy.
3. 6
   Drain.

   Colander

To assemble

1. 7
   Add the drained pasta to the sauce, with a little of the cooking water if it is thick, and toss well.

   💡Toss the pasta in the sauce over the heat for one minute: it soaks up the sauce instead of just being coated in it.
2. 8
   Serve immediately with the Parmesan and parsley.
