I read/enjoy your site as it’s a good bit of information from a regular home cook / chef with good skills and taste buds! LOL If you cut up a shallot (or 2 scallions) and sautéed it, the flavor would have gone off the chart. I make sauce for one all the time, simple, last minute idea (no time to defrost my sauce stash) as my husband isn't home for dinner (executive chef; always busy working at dinnertime). I also smash open and roughly cut a clove of garlic. I cook the veggies, including the tomato, shallot or scallions, cocktail tomatoes and garlic clove in olive oil just until it breaks down; add the shrimp, chopped meat, sausage (removed from its casing) sometimes a small chicken breast or boneless thigh chopped into the just cooked veggie "base". It’s always delicious, very easy and 5-7 minutes tops - serve with any pasta. You’ll amaze yourself! Love an article on Olive Oils...there are zillions at my local Whole Foods, Central Market upscale stores, even in the regular supermarket... Great post on simple, easy and quick pasta sauces.
