INGREDIENTS
1 lb. Spaghetti or other pasta
Salt
Fresh basil leaves, chopped
For serving, freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
ITALIAN SAUCE INGREDIENTS
8 lb. ripe Red tomatoes
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tsp. salt
METHOD FOR SAUCE :
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil over high heat. Cold water should be used to rinse the tomatoes.
- Cut an X into the bottom of each tomato with a paring knife.(This will make peeling the tomatoes simpler once they've been blanched.)
- Drop around 10 tomatoes into the boiling water and let them there for 20 to 30 seconds.
- Transfer them to a large dish of icy water using a slotted spoon.
- Blanch the tomatoes in batches, then transfer them to the icy water.
- Remove the skin from the tomatoes with a paring knife and your fingers; it should easily peel off.
- Cut the tomatoes in pieces lengthwise, core them, and remove the seeds.
- Transfer the tomatoes to a bowl after coarsely chopping them.
- In a 5- to 6-quart heavy-duty saucepan, heat the oil and garlic over medium-low heat for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the garlic begins to crackle and gently browns.
- Pour the tomatoes in with caution.
- Bring the tomatoes to a boil over medium high heat.
- Reduce the heat to medium and allow the sauce simmer, stirring periodically, for 1 hour, or until the tomatoes have broken down and the sauce has thickened.
- Remove the garlic and set aside.
METHOD FOR PASTA SERVING :
- Cook the pasta in salted boiling water according to package directions; drain.
- Heat the tomato sauce in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until barely simmering.
- Remove from the fire and season with salt to taste.
- Toss the pasta in the sauce and top with the Parmigiano.
