If you’re a pasta lover like me, then you probably have tried different types of pasta . One of the most popular and delicious recipes is done in the Livornese style. This classic Italian dish combines the flavors of fresh tomatoes, garlic, and anchovies to create a simple yet savory sauce.

To make spaghetti Livornese, you’ll need a few simple ingredients:

– 1 lb. spaghetti
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 clove garlic, minced
– 1 can (28 oz.) crushed tomatoes
– 1 can (2 oz.) anchovy fillets
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

The first step in making Livornese style spaghetti is to cook the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water until it’s al dente. Drain the pasta and reserve about a cup of the pasta water for later use.

Next, heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until it’s fragrant. Be careful not to let the garlic burn, or it will turn bitter.

Add the anchovies to the pan and mash them with a fork until they dissolve in the oil. The anchovy fillets will add a savory flavor to the sauce, but if you don’t like anchovies, you can leave them out.

Pour the canned tomatoes and their juices into the saucepan with the anchovy and garlic mixture. Use a wooden spoon to break up any large tomato chunks. Add salt and pepper to taste, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let the sauce simmer for 20-30 minutes.

After the sauce has simmered, add the cooked spaghetti to the saucepan and toss to coat the pasta with the sauce. If the sauce seems too thick, add some of the reserved pasta water to loosen it up.

Serve the spaghetti Livornese in shallow bowls and sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired.

The Livornese style spaghetti is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a side salad or garlic bread. It’s also a great recipe to make ahead and enjoy as leftovers because the flavors will intensify over time.

If you’re looking for a different way to enjoy your spaghetti, give Livornese style spaghetti a try. It’s simple to make and bursting with savory flavors that will make your taste buds dance.
