About Puttanesca

Puttanesca is a bold and flavorful Italian pasta dish that originated in Naples. Its name is tied to its quick preparation, making it a popular choice for fast, satisfying meals. The sauce is made with ingredients like tomatoes, olives, capers, garlic, anchovies, olive oil, and red chili flakes, served over pasta, typically spaghetti or linguine. Rich in Mediterranean staples, Puttanesca offers heart-healthy benefits from olive oil and anchovies, which are packed with omega-3 fatty acids. The tomatoes provide a source of antioxidants like lycopene, while capers and olives add vitamins and minerals. However, the dish can be high in sodium due to the olives, capers, and anchovies, so moderating portion sizes or using reduced-sodium versions of these ingredients may be a good idea. Puttanesca is a vibrant option for those seeking a taste of Italy with balanced indulgence.
