I'm having a little dinner party for my friends tonight. They all requested pasta. Some of them are italian and never eat jarred sauces. I want to make my own. Any good recipes??? I want to run out to the store now so it can start cooking and I want it to simmer all day. I heard it's better that way.
I want to use ...
Crushed tomatoes
Onion
Garlic cloves
Basil, Parsley, Oregano .. etc.
Is that all I need?
How much of all this do I need?
Cooking for 6
But I want extra so I can freeze it for more uses in the future.
Thank you!!!!Recipe for homemade pasta sauce? Please help! I'm making dinner tonight!?
It sounds like you have some excellent ingredients already, and a small amount of red wine added to the sauce as it reduces would be good?
If some of your guests like meat, you could always make some meatballs for those who want to add them to their own dish? :o)
Either that, or two different pots of sauces... one vegetarian and one with meat sauce (sweet sausage, meatballs, or both)
Don't forget the garlic bread, parmesan cheese and salad.. YUMMY! :op
Oh p.s... I agree that going on to sites like All Recipes.com, the Food Network, and any of the other kazillion cooking sites is always a great way to get some pointers..
I'll bet by the time you're done, yours will be better than ANY of theirs! :o)Recipe for homemade pasta sauce? Please help! I'm making dinner tonight!?
I always use this recipe here http://find.myrecipes.com/recipes/recipe鈥?/a>
*See the serving sizes and calculate yourself depending on how much you'd like to freeze

Buy one box of the multi colored pasta- cook in salted boiling water- and check - if it says 8 minutes start checking it in 6 - you want it ala dente' which means slightly hard. drain the hot water, and rinse immediately with cold water- that will get the extra starch out of the pasta. Buy black pitted olives one bottle- sliced in halves. I bottle of seasoned in olive oil red peppers and chop up- not fine- you want the salad to have good texture. Add cleaned and chopped carrots and broccoli- but steam them for about 1 minute and rinse like the pasta. Slice and dice a red onion. Buy 1 block of your favorite cheese- if you are going for a greek salad use feta- if you want a true italian salad - use chopped provolone or asiago which is cubed. Use cherry tomatoes and just cut them in half.
dressing: 1/4 cup of balsalmic vinegar, 3/4 cup of olive oil- extra virgin, garlic salt, ground black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of dried dill, rosemary and 1/4 tsp of oregano--- use a shaker bottle for the dressing and do not put on the salad until 10-15 minutes before serving.

Merry ChristmasPasta flour can any one find me a recipe with it in?
Lessee. Pasta flour. Why not make pasta? Dump the flour out of the bag onto a work surface and make a well innit. Count 1 egg for each serving, beat it/them and pour into the well. Start stirring with a wooden spoon inside the well until the dough no longer takes up flour. Remove the dough ball and scrape the remaining flour back in the bag. You can now run the dough through yer pasta machine and there you have it.

i found some of my salad recipes there
I'm looking for a recipe for this pasta dish?
I had it at a pot luck and now I want to try to make it. It had different noodles in it, long round tube like ones. It was orange in color with greens in it. It might have had a tangy cheese flavor maybe? Not overly powerful. Anyone have any ideas what I'm talking about?I'm looking for a recipe for this pasta dish?
Sounds like baked ziti to me. Its made with penne pasta (long, round tubes). There are about a 1000 ways to make it.
Its a casserole dish. From your description, I would suggest to just bake the noodles with with a tomato cream sauce (a mixture of marinara and alfredo sauce) parmesan and spinach.
Edit: Sounds like a type of pasta salad. Try tossing penne pasta with a vinaigrette, spinach and parmesan. Or, it could have been made with a creamy dressing, like 1000 Ise or some type of yogurt dressing.I'm looking for a recipe for this pasta dish?
I know this dish the key ingredient to it was...
-Italian dressing (non creamy kind)
-pasta noodles (only thing cooked)
-raw onions (purple for color diced)
-raw chives (diced)
-oregano
You can also add
-chicken (diced)
-raw bell peppers (diced you can use red yellow orange and green)
-raw celery (sliced)
-raw carrots (shaved)
-cilantro
mix serve cold I don't know the name of it though
You must be pertaining to Puttanesca Pasta with the olives and capers in it. mmmmmmmmm my favorite. The name is derived from the woman who just got off (esca=exit) from her night cruising profession already so tired and very hungry grabs the different types of pasta just to create a pasta dish.
Wondering if they were Ziti noodles possibly? Can you name any other ingredients, flavors, or a guess at Nationality? Happy to help if you either e-mail or update your post ;)
sounds like Ziti pasta but as far as a sauce who knows ask the person who hosted the party maybe they would know. at most mixers there's always one woman who knows just what everyone brought and how well it was received.

This is practically not a ';Cheesecake factory recipe';.. But i tried to cook this, and it was spectacular, here's the recipe and instructions..
1 lg. bunch FRESH basil leaves
12-15 plum tomatoes
5 cloves garlic
1/2 lb. feta (domestic) cheese, crumbled
1 med. onion
1/2 lb. mushrooms
1 bay leaf
A few sprigs of fresh oregano and fresh rosemary (optional)
Olive or canola oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Angel hair pasta or thin spaghetti
(Imported variety/the best - DiCecco).
Mince garlic, onions. Heat 1/8-1/4 cup oil in large cast iron skillet (no aluminum pans). Add garlic, onions and sliced mushrooms to hot oil. dice about 6 tomatoes into small pieces. Chop the remainder in the food processor. Add tomatoes to hot oil in skillet - chop basil leaves with scissors and add to sauces. Add remaining herbs and seasoning to tomato and garlic-mushroom mixture. Simmer on low flame for 20-60 minutes, depending on individual preference (shorter time - produces a sweeter, fresher sauce; longer time - a more traditional sauce). Add water while simmering - to create a thinner sauce, if desired. Cook imported pasta to al dente consistency. Drain - pour sauce over each dish of pasta - crumble generous portions of feta over each serving. Serve with a crisp green salad.Does anyone know the recipe for the cheescake factory's ';tomato basil pasta';?

Then you need some FRESH garden tomato's and FRESH home grown basil. I have several ';dehydrators'; that I dry herbs and garlic and tomatoes with, I slice the tomatoes and dry them to crispy, then I blend them into a powder. The same with basil. Then I make my noodles and add tomato powder and basil powder to the noodles.
After the noodles dry, you boil them till done and add them to your sauce or add sauce to them, depends how you look at it, lol. They are delicious. Give it a try. You can even experiment, add some garlic or whatever you like .
Nope. It's probably a secret.
