The fresh and dried tomato sauce is a very tasty and flavorful condiment, perfect for dressing pasta dishes or spread on crostini, pizza, savory pies, or other.
It’s a very versatile sauce to serve immediately or store in jars in the freezer or sterilize and use at the right time, for example, as an appetizer or to become an excellent condiment to flavor first and second courses.
A simple and quick recipe to prepare, just a few coarsely blended ingredients are enough to make this sauce tasty with an intense summer flavor.
I prepared it in 5 minutes because I already had a small bowl of ready-made fresh cherry tomato sauce, which was enough for one serving, so I enriched it with my dried tomatoes, preserved from last summer, some capers, a little extra virgin olive oil, and some fresh basil leaves, and I was able to dress pasta for my family.
I recommend trying it; it’s really tasty and fragrant, and if you like spicy, add some good fresh chili!
