Notes

  1. When making this recipe, best to use the following pasta type: Spaghetti, linguine,  or vermicelli. Angel Hair cooks fast and can be mushy. 
  2. Use the pasta water to help add moisture to the pasta as it cooks, as well as to dissolve the tomato paste. 
  3. Dry herbs are fine to use, but fresh herbs are best.
