Serving Ideas : bread and a crisp cold glass of white wine
NOTES : Pasta all' Insalata means pasta with raw sauce -- uncooked herbs
and vegetables tossed with hot pasta.  Spaghetti Trapani Style is
an excellent example of the concept. Garlic, basil and olive oil
are processed into a pesto, which is then combined with chopped
tomato and a bite of red chile.  Diced boiled potatoes are tossed
with olive oil and crisped under the broiler. Then hot spaghetti
is tossed with the cool sauce and the crispy potatoes.
