For an extra layer of flavor, try browning the butter lightly before adding the tomato sauce. Be careful not to burn it! A pinch of red pepper flakes added to the sauce will give it a subtle kick. Fresh garlic, finely minced and sauteed in the butter before adding the tomato sauce, adds a lovely aromatic depth. Experiment with different types of pasta to find your favorite pairing. Short pasta shapes like penne or rotini work particularly well. For a richer sauce, use heavy cream instead of pasta water to adjust the consistency.
