Spaghetti With Crushed Tomato And Basil
Spaghetti With Crushed Tomato And Basil
"Last week I was watching an episode of Netflix’s Chef’s Table: Pizza which was all about how Chris Bianco started his restaurant Pizzeria Bianco in the back of a Phoenix grocery and how he got to where he is now. I immediately bought his cookbook Bianco: Pizza, Pasta, and Other Food I Like so that I could try some of recipes! This recipe for Spaghetti with Crushed Tomato and Basil was the first recipe I decided to try making, partly because it looked very simple and easy to make and partly because it looked like it would taste amazing. I was right on both counts, this recipe takes under 30 minutes from start to finish and was some of the best spaghetti I’ve ever eaten. Don’t get me wrong, I love spaghetti with Prego pasta sauce but this was just a whole other level of fresh tomato flavor for me. Next I’m going to need to check out his pizza recipes, he has a Margherita Pizza recipe that looks right up my alley so stay tuned for that one."
