Quickly peel tomatoes by plunging them into the boiling pastawater (before adding the pasta) for 20 seconds; remove with a slotted spoon, and quickly rinse under cold water. The skins will slip right off. 1 pound uncooked spaghetti 2 cups chopped seeded peeled tomato (about 5 medium tomatoes) 1 cup (4 ounces) crumbled ricotta salata or feta cheese 1/3 cup chopped pitted kalamata olives 1/4 cup capers 1 1/2 tablespoons extravirgin olive oil 3/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 4 garlic cloves, minced Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain. Combine tomato and remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Add pasta, and toss well to combine. Serve immediately.
