I usually do not toot my own horn, but this pasta was one of the best I have ever made. I added one ingredient that changed the entire recipe. Anchovies. I thought I hated anchovies! This is the first recipe
My daughter, Alex is the pickiest eater I have ever encountered and she LOVED the pasta minus the seafood.
Put it this way, I made a pound of the pasta and I ate a small portion. The rest my husband finished off. I hope that explains how good the pasta is.
I hope you try it and enjoy!!
