Directions
1. In a kettle place tomatoes and cover with cold water.
2. Bring just to the boil and pour off water and cover again with cold water.
3. Peel, seed and cut into small pieces.
4. In a large pot of boiling salted water cook the pasta until al dente.

8. Drain the pasta, but do not rinse in cold water.

10. Reduce the heat as low as possible.
11. Keep warm, uncovered, for about 10 minutes when it is ready to serve.
