Radiatore-shaped pasta is small and has rows of deep ridges. You can use them in soups, salads, or casseroles if you happen to have any extra leftover. After cooking the pasta, simply add the rest of the sauce ingredients, which include fresh, very ripe tomatoes, basil, and mint, as well as scallions and feta cheese, and toss them all together; it's as simple as that. We love no-cook sauce recipes when produce is as its ripest. You can also make this tomato sauce recipe without the pasta, and you'll have a great topping for bruschetta, a satisfying, low-calorie hors d'oeuvre or snack that's also great for entertaining.
