PASTA WITH RAW TOMATO AND BALSAMIC SAUCE



Pasta With Raw Tomato and Balsamic Sauce image

I think I found this recipe at a local farmers market. I haven't tried it yet, but it looked really good to me because I love the components of the recipe. At least this way I won't have to hunt for one more little piece of paper next time I have good summer tomatoes. Since it's an uncooked sauce, the highest-quality ingredients you can get your hands on are a must. Cook and prep times are approximate.

From Cooking Pleasures magazine. The heat from the pasta helps to melt the cheese and warm the sauce. You can also use a combination of basil and arugula for a tomato caprice taste.
