Furthermore, I would like to share some of my suggestions for making tomato tagliatelle pasta. Firstly, cook the pasta in a pan of boiling salted water until al dente. Secondly, in this recipe, I used homemade tomato puree. But you can use canned tomato instead of fresh tomatoes. Finally, you can add any veggies like asparagus instead of carrot and red capsicum.
