TRADITIONAL ITALIAN RECIPE: Just when I thought red pasta couldn’t get any better, I discovered the magic that is roasted red peppers.
This is a Spanish-inspired sauce. Not 100% Italian. But Italy has been invaded by nearly everyone, so it comes to no-one surprise sometimes we find something not really Italian. But this is how they make it in Italy.
I originally made the sauce to go with pici pasta, a hand-rolled, fat spaghetti-like shape that is a little like a marriage between bucatini and Japanese udon noodles. But that was a fail. Ended up using normal long Pasta. Any of the dry group.
