Tuyo Pasta

Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp oil
• 1 tbsp butter
• 3-4 cloves garlic, sliced
• 1/4 cup tomatoes, cubed
• 220g San Marino Gourmet Tuyo
• 1/8 cup pasta water
• Juice of half a lemon
• Pepper, to taste
• 450 grams spaghetti noodles, cooked al dente

If you want less sauce on your pasta, this easy peasy recipe got you covered! Indulge in salty flavors by using salted red herrings, also known as tuyo, to make Tuyo Pasta.

On your nonstick pan, saute all ingredients in oil & butter until fragrant. Use bottled tuyo like San Marino Gourmet Tuyo to save time and avoid releasing strong odors while cooking. Splash a bit of pasta water to slightly thicken the sauce, then balance out the saltiness with some lemon juice. Once it’s time to transfer the pasta, turn off your stovetop & mix well until the noodles are well coated.

Tuna Macaroni Pasta

Ingredients:

• 1 6.5 oz. can San Marino Corned Tuna
• 0.68 kgs macaroni pasta
• 1 cup frozen green peas
• 2 cups Alfredo Sauce
• 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese

Got a toaster oven at home? Baking Tuna Macaroni Pasta is so quick and easy, you can prep a batch of these, and it will last for days!

All you have to do is mix all the ingredients in a bowl (except for sharp cheddar cheese) while you preheat the oven to 176°C/350°F. It’s fine to throw in the green peas while still frozen, but make sure to drain your San Marino Corned Tuna! Once you’ve assembled them in a pan, bake for 20 to 25 minutes, and it’s ready to serve!
