Today I created a delicious tuna sandwich inspired by "sugo alla puttanesca". Puttanesca is an Italian sauce that is comprised of numerous items which often includes anchovies, tomatoes, olives, capers and more. The resulting flavor is spicy, salty and scrumptious.Today I decided to translate the character of a slow-simmered puttanesca sauce into a quick and easy sandwich. The resulting meal was quite tasty although it failed to be photogenic (thus no accompanying picture).
