Puttanesca is a tangy and fairly salty Italian dish that the street workers used to eat. They ate it because most of the ingredients were cheap and had a long shelf life. Now you will find pasta puttanecsa at fine restaurants and cafes. Todays recipe is made with spinach and ricotta agnolloti but traditionally it should be served with penne or spaghetti.
