      Excellent sauce and easy to make. I love my puttanesca sauce a bit more spicy, So I increased red pepper flakes, add a few dashes of red pepper sauce (Tabasco) and about 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper. I also felt it needed to simmer more than twice to time to get to right thickness. In the last few minutes, I tossed in 4-5 large shrimp per person. This is a keeper Maine-iac!

      It was dad's night to cook and I chose this. This was very good and very easy. I used diced canned tomatoes and fresh basil, because I like fresh basil. I even dropped some shrimp in it towards the end because when I worked in a restaurant during college that was how we served our Puttanesca. I served it over angel hair pasta for something different from spaghetti.

      Just a wonderful sauce!!! I am a lover of onions, so I chopped some up and sauteed them along with the garlic. A 5-star recipe!!! Thank you for posting!!! Oh yeah, I added a tad bit of sugar since I like a little bit of sweetness in my spaghetti sauce... ciao!!! :D

      I thought this was excellent. I did add a chopped onion that I let cook a little too long, so the sauce was on the sweet side -- my fault! I'll follow the recipe exactly next time, and I'll love it even more. It very closely resembled the restaurant dish I was trying to recreate, and I appreciated that it didn't include any anchovy paste.

      I fixed this last night & even my meat eating hubby said it was good. I loved it & it was even better for lunch today. Couldn't find the capers in the fridge - I thought it needed something so I added a little balsamic vinegar. Will make again!

      An Italian waiter once told me that putanesca is a derogatory word in Italy meaning btch. I don't know if this is true but this is a btching recipe. Fantastico!

      This is a keeper! My husband and 5 year old both raved over the flavor. My son didn't even care when he ran out of spaghetti. I could not find anything close to a 35 ounce can of tomatoes (let alone romas), so I ended up buying around 2 pounds of fresh roma tomatoes. Word of advice: blanch and peel! I also realized the cooking time would have to accommodate raw tomatoes versus canned, so I scrapped this the first night and ate at On The Border. This afternoon, I took out the ice cold sauce, picked out only the tomatoes and hand peeled each tiny tomato bit (AAGGH!). I then put the mixture in a large saucepan on low and took a nap to recover. About four hours later, I tasted the sauce and thought it was too acidic. I dumped in about a teaspoon of sugar, a sprinkle of salt and extra basil. It then tasted perfect! I was asked to make this again. If I do, I will search high and low for canned, PEELED tomatoes. Thanks for a great recipe and hand workout!

      I loved this easy yet distinctly different sauce. Perfect for olive lovers.

      Excellent recipe. I modified the recipe a little bit. I used 1 tbs. olive oil and used the canned diced tomatoes. Excellent recipe. Even my husband likes it.
