- Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor and texture. Heirloom varieties can add additional color and sweetness.
- Be careful not to overcook the garlic; it should be golden brown, not burnt, to avoid bitterness.
- Reserve a bit of the pasta cooking water before draining. This starchy water can help to create a smoother sauce.
- Toss the pasta in the sauce while it is still hot to allow the flavors to meld together more effectively.
- Add the watercress just before serving to keep its bright peppery flavor and crisp texture intact.
- Feel free to sprinkle extra parmesan cheese on top for an added layer of richness.
