Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

While your pasta boils, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
Add smashed garlic cloves for 1 minute just to infuse the oil, then remove them.
Pour in the Sturdy Sauce and bring to a light simmer.
Stir in the torn basil leaves right before tossing in the cooked pasta. The residual heat will wilt the basil and release its oils without losing that bright, peppery flavor.
