"This classic Italian sauce is from the Tuscany region. The chunky sauce is great with noodles that have lots of crevices to help take up the sauce."

Step 1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Step 2
While the water is heating up, prepare the sauce. Place the olives, anchovy paste, sun-dried tomatoes, cheese, parsley, egg, olive oil, garlic, red pepper flakes and salt into a food processor and blend until almost smooth but still with chunks (texture). Set aside.
Step 3
Salt the boiling water and then stir in the pasta. Cook until al dente.
Step 4
Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water. Drain pasta.
Step 5
After draining, return the pasta to the pot along with the reserved pasta water.
Step 6
Stir in 3/4 of the sauce and toss until everything is well coated, adding more sauce to your liking (taste as you go).
Step 7
Serve immediately.
