Elaine et al: Here it is-

PUTTANESCA

Puttanesca base:
1/2 c olive oil (original recipe calls for 1 c, but this is way oily)
10-15 cloves garlic (I like 15)
1 heaping T (tbsp) dry basil
1 t (teasp) red pepper flakes
1/4 t white pepper
32-36 oz canned Italian plum tomatoes
1/3 c capers
1/2 c calamata olives

Puttanesca for 4:
12 ozs Puttanesca base
6-10 anchovy fillets (recipe says to rinse, but I never do)
4 T olive oil
8 ozs fresh tomatoes ("peeled, seeded, and chopped")[I never seed them]
2 T chopped fresh basil
4 ozs goat cheese (I usually substitute gorgonzola)
16 ozs angel hair pasta

To make base:
Saute whole garlic cloves in olive oil over low heat for at least 10' (s/b
slightly brown & soft)
Add basil, red & white pepper, and plum tomatoes
Simmer for 30-45'
Turn heat off and add capers and olives to finish base.  (Listed
ingredients
cook down to about a quart.)

To make Puttanesca meal:
Saute anchovies in olive oil till broken down
Add base, tomatoes, and basil.
Heat, then remove from heat.
Freeze remainder of base for another meal.

I usually put everything in a large plastic water bottle and freeze (with
cap off till frozen), then wrap in something to insulate it.  I've let it
go
for 3-4 days without further refrigeration without any noticeable problem.

In camp, cook pasta and add puttanesca as soon as pasta is finished &
drained.  Crumble gorgonzola over it.
