JACQUES PEPIN'S SPAGHETTI WITH FRESH TOMATO AND ANCHOVY SA
The recipe calls for spaghetti, but then I saw a video of Pepin making the recipe with his daughter using penne; I think that would catch the sauce better. Still, it's up to you!

Steps:
- 1. Bring 3 quarts of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, cut the mushrooms into thin slices. Pile the slices together and cut them into thin strips (julienne). You should have 1½ cups. Combine them in a large glass bowl with the peas.
- 2. Add the diced tomatoes, garlic and anchovies with their oil to the bowl. Sprinkle some red pepper flakes, salt, olive oil and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well.
- 3. Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook for 7 to 8 minutes, or until done to your liking. Meanwhile, heat the tomato mixture in a microwave oven for about 2 minutes. When the pasta is cooked, ladle out about ¾ cup of the hot pasta water before draining the pasta, and mix it into the sauce in the bowl to help warm it up.
- 4. Drain the pasta, and add it to the sauce along with the cilantro. Toss well for 15 or 20 seconds, and divide among the four hot plates. Serve immediately with extra grated Parmesan cheese.

ANCHOVY GARLIC SPREAD
A change from garlic toast. You need to at least "like" anchovies for this one! Serving size depends on how thick or thin you spread the mixture on each slice of bread.

Steps:
- Saute' garlic in oil (do not brown).
- Add anchovies and cook/saute for a few minutes.
- Put mixture in blender or food processor and puree.
- Spread onto sliced French, Sour Dough or Italian bread.
- Cover each slice with desired amount of cheese.
- Place under broiler until the cheese becomes bubbly.
- Note: if you are not terribly fond of anchovies (very salty fish) I would put on a thinner spread.
Tips:
- To make sure the anchovies are properly desalted, soak them in cold water for at least 30 minutes, changing the water once or twice. This will remove the excess salt and bitterness.
- If you prefer a smoother spread, you can puree the anchovies in a food processor or blender until they are completely smooth.
- To add a bit of extra flavor to the spread, you can add a tablespoon of chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, chives, or dill.
- Anchovy spread can be served as an appetizer on crackers or bread, or it can be used as a condiment for fish or chicken dishes.
- It can also be used as a sandwich spread or as a filling for deviled eggs.
