ICYM this. I’ve made it a dozen times and it works every time. It even scales down pretty faithfully for smaller servings, something I’m always looking for in recipes. (I wish Ina would write a cookbook on “Cooking for One.”)

I’ve made this with angel hair, spaghetti, linguini, even penne. You can add Silver Salmon Creek salmon, shrimp fresh out of Prince William Sound, garnish with parmesan shavings, add some plain goat cheese in with the pasta and stir it around until it’s almost melted before serving. It’s a recipe tolerant of almost anything you have in the cupboard or the fridge, but also great as is, and like she says it’s so quick and easy. Pasta for dummies.

This time I made it with spaghetti and added some capers I brought home last year from Sardinia. Yum.
