The overall rough texture and intense flavors of this very rustic sauce are what gives it the famous name. Although delicious and traditional with pasta, this classic sauce is also wonderful served with broiled fish. I have suggested only one clove of garlic, although you can add up to three or more if you prefer. You can also increase the quantities of any of the other ingredients for an intense combination of tastes.
