When we were sailing in the Ionian sea. A wonderful Greek girl was with us. She couldn't speak a word of English but I saw her make this incredible tomato sauce. I watched it simmer on the stove while the boat swayed back and forth making sure none of it would spill everywhere or maybe the kitchen would catch on fire. My husband who is Greek Cypriot was steering the boat and singing Greek songs while the pasta cooked. I am a lucky American girl to be able to experience the Greek islands in this wonderful way. Every time I make this sauce I am on that boat to Ithaca. yaisou!
