Salsa Di Pomodori, Prosciutto, E Capperi (Italian Tomato Sauce) image

(Tomato Sauce with Prosciutto and Capers) from Cucina di Calabria. Serve with fresh or dried taglairini (1/4 inch noodles) When I make this I substitute crushed tomato for the chopped because my family likes a smoother tomato sauce. Either is fine.

This sauce is delicious! I love the way the prosciutto and capers add a salty and briny flavor to the tomatoes.

This sauce is a bit too tangy for my taste. I would recommend adding a bit of sugar or honey to balance out the flavors.

This sauce is a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less prosciutto or capers next time.
