and rinse under cool water.

Tips:
Use whole peeled canned tomatoes if fresh garden tomatoes are not in season for
the best flavor.
For extra spice, add red pepper flakes or use spicy Italian sausage.
Cook the noodles very al dente so they don’t get mushy when tossed in the sauce.
Use a pasta pot with a built-in strainer to easily drain the noodles.
Save some of the starchy pasta water to thin out the sauce if it gets too thick
