This is an extremely flavorful and bold pasta sauce and the name literally means "of the whore" because of no holds barred flavors. It's also very easy to make, so I suggest you cook up a pot and enjoy!
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
4 large cloves garlic, minced
8 anchovy filets or two tablespoons of anchovy paste
2 28 ounce cans of crushed tomatoes
1 cup of kalamata olives, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons of capers, drained
1/2 tablespoon dried basil
1/4 tablespoon of red pepper flakes
Heat the oil over medium heat and add the onion, garlic and anchovies -- saute until the veggies are translucent and the anchovies have all but dissolved into the oil (they'll take on a wonderfully toasty flavor). Add the red pepper flakes at this point and saute for another minute.
Then add the rest of the ingredients, and once it comes up to a low boil, turn the heat down to medium/low and simmer for 40-60 minutes.
Can be served over any pasta, but I like it with spaghetti, bucatini or some other hearty long past.
