People often ask me “What is your favorite food is to cook?” Of all the recipes I have made, some complicated, others not, pasta with simple tomato sauce is my absolute favorite, perhaps because it is also my favorite dish to eat. It’s my go-to dish for a late night dinner, when I am tired and hungry, mostly because it is so easy to make and I always have the ingredients on hand.
Much as I love my regular sauce using good canned tomatoes, this fresh tomato version is a close second. The inspiration came from the gorgeous cherry tomatoes I would find at the grocery store in Italy. Here in the States I favor Nature Sweet Cherub cherry tomatoes – they are consistently delicious, and as an added bonus non-GMO and fair trade certified – but any sweet ripe cherry tomato will do.
I would often make an oven roasted version of them as a side dish to grilled or roasted meats, and this cherry tomato sauce for pasta was a natural transition. The mode of cooking the tomatoes on the stovetop keeps their freshness and natural sweetness intact, as they slowly burst to create a lovely sauce. The additional ingredients work together to enhance the flavor of the tomatoes.
