Steps:
- Assign 1 guest to pit the olives and another to dice the tomatoes.
- Bring 12 cups of water and 1 teaspoons of salt to a boil in a large pot.
- At the same time, in another large pot over medium-high heat, add 1/4 cup olive oil along with the garlic, shallots, and walnuts. Stir occasionally for 6 minutes, or until they just begin turning golden.
- Add the basil and stir for 30 seconds (to release their flavors).
- Add tomatoes, olives, remaining salt, pepper, chile pepper, and remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add yellow cherry tomatoes at the end.
- While sauce is simmering, add pasta to the boiling water. Cook according to package directions.
- Warm the second loaf of bread in a preheated 325 degrees F oven.
- Drain pasta. Add pasta to sauce in pot. Toss thoroughly. Put pasta pot directly on the table, or transfer to a large pre-warmed serving bowl.
- Serve with Parmesan. Don't forget the bread in the oven!
