About the dish

Sugo all'arrabbiata is a spicy Italian sauce made with a combination of tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, and red chili pepper flakes. The sauce is usually seasoned with salt and pepper, with the optional addition of sugar. It originates from Lazio, and the name arrabbiata means angry , referring to the sauce's spiciness, which packs quite a punch. Sugo all'arrabbiata is traditionally served with pasta such as penne , rigatoni , or capunti , due to the fact that all of those pasta varieties capture this fiery red sauce pretty well.
