- Over medium heat, saute the chopped onion in the olive oil until onion is just golden brown. Remove from heat and add the tomatoes, juice and all. Crush the tomatoes slightly with a fork. Return to low heat and simmer until the sauce has thickened. Taste for seasoning and add salt and freshly ground black pepper if desired.
- While the sauce is cooking, wash and dry the arugula, discarding thick stems. Cut into thin ribbons and set aside.
- Bring 4 quarts of water to a rolling boil. Add salt if desired and when water reboils, add pasta. Stir vigorously with a long-handled wooden spoon or fork to separate pasta strands and bring water quickly back to a boil.
- When pasta is done, drain quickly and turn into a warm serving bowl. Remove sauce from fire and add the arugola, stirring to mix well. Pour sauce over pasta and sprinkle with half the pecorino cheese. Serve immediately, passing the rest of the cheese separately.

TAGLIOLINI WITH UNCOOKED TOMATO SAUCE (TAGLIOLINI ALLA CHECCA)
a fabulous fresh pasta sauce. When its to hot for a heavy meal its perfect. You can of course buy fresh pasta rather than make but the directions for making it are included. From Osteria del Circo. Note, if buffalo mozzarella is not available then the bocconcini mozzarella in the tub of water is a great substitute. Just make sure whatever one you use, its fresh wet mozzarella. Time includes making your own pasta, otherwise its all about 5 minutes minus the marinade overnight of the tomatoes
