Whore Sauce
If you are looking for a quick, easy sauce for pasta, here is my recipe for Puttanesca sauce. Originally, from the Campagna region of Italy. Literally, Puttanesca means “prostitute,” a fast sauce made in between Johns. From the 19th century bordellos of Naples rose this simple dish that has become popular in the United States.
As I mentioned I don’t follow recipes only time and temp of the protein.
Vermicelli pasta, or any “Spa’getti,” a long, thin pasta.
Cook pasta,drain always reserve a little pasta water to add in. Preferaby cooked Al Dente, “to the tooth,” in Italian.
Add: Roma tomatoes sliced, olive oil, red pepper flakes, anchovies, black olives, and garlic.
The original recipe has capers, [I use olives] chili peppers, [I use red pepper flakes.]
You can add any amount of these ingredients depending on personal preference.
My wine suggestion would be a light, crisp, dry white wine, Pinot Grigio. If you need a little sweetness, try a German Riesling, they are dry with a slight touch of sweetness. Apricot is one flavor, in Riesling, the stainless steel aging of these wines created the fresh, crispness.
