don't fear, I let it sit for 5 minutes and the pasta sucked up all the tomato broth, which is just a basket of local tomatoes, evoo, garlic and a little sugar
pasta, tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, fresh ricotta, basil pesto, picked roast chicken. it was incredibly light and above all, fresh, simple.
the rest of the tomatoes will get a touch of lard, caramelized onions and beef stock for a nice soup.
