Guest guest Posted August 6, 2001 Report Share Posted August 6, 2001 * Exported from MasterCook * Pasta Picchi Pacchiu RecipeBy : Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Pasta Tomatoes Garlic Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 4 cups diced tomatoes 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil -- 8 cloves garlic -- sliced 1 tsp kosher salt 1 tbsp freshly ground black pepper 12 leaves basil -- coarsely chopped 1 lb of pasta-I like Angel Hair for this Crush the tomatoes as small as possible with your fingers. Set aside. Place 1/2 the olive oil and the garlic in a 4-1/2 qt saucepan and heat together over a medium flame. Cook for 15 minutes to infuse oil with garlic and to soften garlic. Add garlic and oil mixture to tomatoes (along with remaining oil) and salt and peper. Stir until thoroughly mixed. Add basil. Cook 1 lb of pasta (your favorite shape) and then add it to the hot Picchi sauce. Serves 4.
