WHAT IS ARRABBIATA SAUCE..

Arrabbiata Sauce is a light Italian sauce 
that is given an extra spicy flavor by adding
hot peppers to the sauce. Arrabbiata sauce 
of garlic, tomatoes, and red chili cooked in 
olive oil. Basil is sometimes used, although
the majority of chefs in Italy do not use basil
for this recipe.
The dish is usually served with pasta and 
chopped fresh parsley sprinkled on top.
Arrabbiata Sauce will go well with any plain 
pasta, and it is often best enjoyed with penne.
The principle ingredients of Arrabbiata Sauce 
are tomatoes, tomato paste or sauce, chopped
parsley, garlic, onions, Italian seasonings and 
of course chopped red pepper and/or red pepper
flakes. Garlic and parsley are simmered first in a little olive oil, and then the lengthiest cooking process is cooking onions. They should be sauteed over 
medium heat for about ten minutes, allowing 
them to soften and sweeten up. The rest of the ingredients are added when the onions are 
properly cooked, and cooking time in recipes
varies greatly.
Some recipes suggest a cup or more of 
Parmesan be added.
