CONNIE'S CALABRIAN PASTA SAUCE
Connie is from Italy. Her pasta sauces are divine, but not heavily spiced or acidic like many in the US. This is subtle, with the tomatoes the shining ingredient. Because the tomatoes are front and center, use a good sauce tomato. She loves hers very sweet, using more than 1/3 c of sugar; I find I can use less and still enjoy it. Honey or agave syrup works equally well. The flavor meld together; hers reminds me of tomato soup it's so smooth.

Steps:
- Using a food processor, process tomatoes until mostly smooth. A few small chunks are OK.
- Crush the garlic using a garlic press, or finely chop.
- Clean the fennel well, then slice into 1/4" slices and dry the pieces with a paper towel.
- Add the oil to a large, heavy stock pot.
- When shimmering, add the fennel and saute until it's starting to lightly brown.
- Add the garlic and stir just until it's fragrant.
- Immediately add the processed tomatoes.
- Add the tomato paste, basil, and spices.
- Cook for an hour, uncovered, with the sauce just barely simmering, and stirring occasionally.
- Taste the sauce. If it is a bit acidic/tart, add 1 T of sugar at a time stirring well and tasting it after each addition. Add no more than 1/4 cup at this time.
- Continue simmering,. If you like a "fresh" sauce with some tomato lumps, you can use it as quickly as 1 hour. If you like a smooth sauce, as she makes hers, continue to cook.
- After another hour, taste it again. If it's still too acidic/tart for your taste, add more sugar, 1 T at a time, tasting after each addition.
- When done, freeze or can the sauce for later consumption. If you can it, make sure you follow safe canning procedures and make sure the pH is safe.

Steps:
- In a 10-inch high-sided saute pan, bring 1 inch of water (about 4 cups) to a boil over high heat. Add the penne and the salt. Cook, stirring often, until the pasta is al dente, about 9 minutes; there should be a little water left in the pan.
- Sprinkle the pecorino over the pasta; toss to coat. Add the tomatoes, chile paste, chives, lemon zest, lemon juice and olive oil, and toss.

- While the water comes to a boil. Add pine nuts to a large skillet with high sides. Turn the heat on medium-low. Toast the nuts until then become slightly golden and smell nutty. Watch carefully, as they burn easily. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Turn the heat up to medium. Add three tablespoons of oil from the jar of chilis. When the oil is hot, add the shallots and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Sweat the shallots until they start to soften, about 3-4 minutes. If they start to brown, turn the heat down to medium-low.
