Pici: Garlic Sauce

This Tuscan dish is a version of simple aglio e olio, but more robust to go with chunky pici. The present recipe, as with most, includes tomato but it is sometimes made in bianco. Should this be your desire, omit the tomato and, instead, add 6 tablespoons of fresh breadcrumbs followed by 2 of parsley. Be sure to have your pasta ready at this point, as the sauce will need no further cooking.
