Five Italian Pasta Sauces, Ready Before the Water Boils


Buon Venerdì,

Italian pasta sauce does not mean standing over the stove for an hour, stirring and waiting.

These five sauces are ready in the time it takes to boil the pasta.

The word pesto comes from pestare, to pound or crush, and it can be made with many different ingredients, from basil to pistachio to fresh tomatoes.

Other sauces come together in a pan in a matter of minutes, and smoked salmon and friggitelli are two examples.

Here are five ways to get real Italian pasta on the table before the water even finishes boiling.

buon appetito,
