We haven’t Tomato Pasta’d for a while, have we?

By ‘We’ and ‘Tomato Pasta’, I mean both that:

  1. my family and I haven’t eaten the budget-balancing and ‘shit what’s in the cupboard’ Marcella Hazan-ish tinned tomato life-saver meal for at least two months;

  2. and for an even longer period, I haven’t written on here to you about alternative Tomato Pasta solutions.

(Full context: both a tomato pasta recipe; and the Tomato Pasta concept are in this post and you’ll find a whole section of related ideas on the home page of this newsletter)
