Dear Sirs/Madams,
in Italian, "pasta all'arrabbiata" means pasta in the angry fashion - with reference to the generous use of chilli in the sauce. The so-called arrabbiata sauce I bought from you did not even frown convincingly.

Whooops!

The recipes I've seen for arrabbiata usually call for 'red pepper flakes'...
Whoops! I hadn't noticed that. I had always thought of arrabbiata as made with fresh peperoncino, because you want a certain juiciness to go with the heat, but I guess that is my family tradition. It is amazing how many different versions of one famous dish you can get just from different people, let alone different cookbooks.
