  • This incredibly flavorful classic Italian puttanesca sauce recipe has tomatoes, olives, capers, garlic, and anchovies tossed in herbs and pasta.
    Puttanesca is a zesty sauce comprised of tomatoes, onions, capers, olives, anchovies, and garlic, and is commonly served with pasta. On a restaurant menu, it will often say alla puttanesca, which means with the sauce. This sauce has a couple of minor variations, including herbs and chiles. Regardless, you can make this pasta work to your liking.
    There are a couple of stories on where this sauce came from, starting with its origin in brothels, specifically in the Spanish quarters in Naples where the puttanas, translated to prostitutes, would feed themselves and clients.
    Another story claims that puttana stems from the Latin word for putida, which means stinking. This would make sense considering the strong aromas from the ingredients in the pasta.
    The last claim states that a chef in the famous Ischia restaurant in Italy had nothing much left to serve some hungry customers. He just threw together whatever ingredients he had, translating from “puttanata qualsiasi,” which means prepared as it comes. Make it simple with no frills. It’s really just a simple Spaghetti Sauce.

    In her cookbook, Sophia Loren explains that the "working girls" of Naples (her hometown) made this for a quick lunch during a working day.....needed some nourishment but didn't want to be off the job too long.......She's a native of Naples so I'm going to go with her interpretation ..❤

      That's accurate. It literally translates to "in the style of the whore". Often prepared by chefs in exchange for favors.

    I think the bronze pasta is generally considered better. It's more slowly dried and has a slightly rougher surface, which holds a sauce better. Other than that, your recipe is spot on. I'm going to make it this evening. Thanks... well done.

    I wonder if you can you use anchovy sauce instead of anchovy filets. The filets seem to be a little strong for me. I've never used anchovy sauce, but I've heard its milder.

      @@StephieGm puttsnesca has too many strong flavours in it(anchovies, capers, kalamata, etc), so you wont feel the difference. Its better to use any peeled tomatoes and save the San Marzano for a pomodoro or something like that where the tomatoes are the star of the show.
