Noodles And Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare the pasta according to pacakge directions and drain well.
• While the pasta is draining, melt the butter in the pasta pot.
• Add the pasta back to the pot, mix well.
• Add the crushed tomatoes, mix well and serve.

Steps:

• Combine the tomatoes, basil, garlic, salt and pepper. Serve over pasta. If desired, garnish with basil and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Bring enough water to the boil to cover the noodles when they are added. Add salt to taste.
• Meanwhile, drop the tomato into a basin of boiling water and let stand about 9 seconds. Peel the tomato and cut away the core. Cut the tomato into 1/4-inch cubes. There should be about 2 cups.
• Heat the butter in a saucepan and add the onion and rosemary. Cook, stirring, until the onion is wilted. Add the tomato, pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, about 5 minutes.
• Drop the noodles into the boiling water and cook, stirring, about 3 minutes if the noodles are fresh, 8 to 9 minutes if they are dried. Drain well and add the tomato sauce. Toss.

Steps:

• Place tomatoes in a kettle, and cover with cold water. Bring just to the boil. Pour off water, and cover again with cold water. Peel. Cut into small pieces.
• Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente.
• In a large skillet or saute pan, saute the garlic in enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan. The garlic should just become opaque, not brown. Stir in the tomato paste. Immediately stir in the tomatoes, and salt and pepper. Reduce heat, and simmer until the pasta is ready; add the basil.
• Drain the pasta, but do not rinse in cold water. Toss with a couple of tablespoons of olive oil, and then mix into the sauce. Reduce the heat as low as possible. Keep warm, uncovered, for about 10 minutes when it is ready to serve. Garnish generously with fresh Parmesan cheese.
• VARIATIONS: Saute fresh quartered mushrooms with the garlic, or add shoestring zucchini along with the tomato.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, toss together the tomatoes and salt. Let sit until juicy, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the noodles according to package instructions, drain and rinse under cold water. Set aside.
• Add the vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, garlic, mustard and sesame oil to the tomatoes, and toss with a spoon until well combined. Stir the filtered water into the tomatoes and sprinkle the surface of the broth with the sesame seeds, radishes and scallions.
• Right before serving, add the ice to the broth. Divide the noodles among bowls, and ladle in the broth and any unmelted ice, making sure each serving gets a nice sprinkling of tomatoes, radishes, scallions and sesame seeds.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan or kettle, bring enough salted water to cover the noodles to a boil.
• Core the tomatoes and cut them into 1 1/2-inch cubes.
• Drop the noodles into boiling water and cook, stirring until tender. Do not overcook.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a saucepan. Add the tomatoes and salt and pepper. Cook for 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic, cook and stir for 30 seconds. Set aside and keep warm.
• Drain the noodles and return them to the saucepan. Add the butter, tomatoes and basil, and blend well. Check for seasoning and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta.
• Meanwhile, using the large holes of a box grater, grate the cut ends of the tomato into a large bowl. Discard or compost skins. Grate the butter into the bowl as well. Using the small holes of the box grater, grate the garlic into the bowl. Add the red-pepper flakes, and season generously with salt. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Return the drained pasta to the pot, along with the bowl of grated tomato and butter. Set over medium-high heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly and glosses the pasta, 2 to 3 minutes (the sauce will thicken as it sits). Add pasta water as needed to emulsify the sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with more red-pepper flakes, black pepper, basil and Parmesan as desired.

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
• Coarsely chop the tomato and transfer to a small bowl. Sprinkle the tomato chunks with basil, olive oil, and salt. Set aside.
• Once the water is boiling, stir in the rigatoni, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander, and then return the pasta to the pot.
• Pour the tomato mixture over the pasta and toss to mix.

Steps:

• Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente; drain and transfer to a large bowl.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a 12" skillet or wide heavy saucepan over medium-high. Add garlic, then tomatoes, pepper, sugar, and 1 tsp. salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes burst and release their juices to form a sauce, 6-8 minutes.
• Toss pasta with tomato sauce and basil. Top with Parmesan.
