Pasta recipes
Pasta makes you happy. And these very special. Not because the pasta sauce is simmering for hours - on the contrary. Our quick pasta sauce cooks almost by itself. And overnight.
From the fridge, to the mouth - this fast noodle sauce is not boiled, but marinated in olive oil overnight. Fruity tomatoes, delicate peppers and fine basil - pasta of a special kind.
When does our quick pasta sauce taste the best? In the summer - when the tomatoes are at the peak of their maturity. On all other days we refine the red vegetables with a pinch of sugar. Why? Because the sugar softens the acidity of the tomatoes, making them even more aromatic.
A little tip: The quick pasta sauce also tastes great on roasted ciabatta. A heavenly appetizer for the next Italian evening.
