Where’s the sauce?” So here I am, back in the kitchen. This time I’m sharing my wife’s famous Pasta Pomodoro — the dish she whips up when I come home and want something fast and delicious. Here’s the crazy part: when I met my wife 42 years ago, she was Mexican and had never eaten Italian food. Now? Italian is her favorite, and she makes pasta better than restaurants in Italy. I’ve been all over the world eating at the best places, and I’m telling you, this 20-minute recipe will beat them all. No delivery fees robbing you, no complicated ingredients — just olive oil, fresh garlic, tomatoes, basil, and pasta. My grandmother used to make heavy “gravy” with everything in it. This is light, simple, and absolutely delicious. I’m challenging Gordon Ramsay to make better pasta than this. Week by week I’m sharing all my family secrets. Pair it with our Franzese Areni wine, and you’ve got a meal you can’t refuse. Don’t order out — make this at home for 30 bucks.
