Spaghetti W/ Fresh Tomato Sauce W/ Capers & Fresh Mozzarella

Submitted by lecole54

"Huffingtonpost.com published a wonderful article entitled "Quick And Easy No-Cook Pasta Sauce Recipes," showing how to make (and vary!) a fresh tomato sauce, pesto, and a Parmesan sauce. The idea behind the article was to present recipes that could be made in the time that it takes to cook the noodles. This was our variation on their theme of tomato sauce. Don't skip the anchovies: smashed, they add an amazing depth of flavor and you won't know that they are there!"
