I’m getting really tired of my food expiring before I make anything with it, and I want to quit buying anything that can’t be frozen or last several months in the cupboard.

Here’s one that’s lazy, pretty much foolproof, and uses all canned food from the pantry. (If you know what it’s called, good for you.)

  1. Add oil to stockpot, put in anchovies, dried red pepper, and garlic, fry it up a little bit until it smells good.
  2. Add in a can of crushed tomatoes, drained olives, and caper. Boil, then simmer.
  3. Cook some spaghetti to al dente(approximately 6-7 minute, SALT THE WATER, DON’T OIL THE WATER)
  4. Drain the pasta and mix into sauce, add olive oil and Parmesan to taste, serve.

Seems like a pretty good dish, I’ll have time to try it some time. Thanks for the suggestion!

Just be sure and refrigerate that oil

Oh yes! Puttanesca is the only time I’ll eat anchovies. This is a tasty dish.
