Spaghetti al Pomodoro Crudo

Cook Pete's Spaghetti until al dente in salted boiling water. Drain and set aside.

While the spaghetti cooks, prepare the raw tomato sauce. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, minced garlic, torn basil leaves, and extra-virgin olive oil.

Season the tomato sauce with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss the mixture gently to ensure the flavors are well combined.

Add pasta to the bowl with the raw tomato sauce. Toss and coat evenly.

Sprinkle parmesan cheese, if desired.
