Fantastic! I used more olive oil, and added some hand crushed tomatos and spinach at the end for a few minutes

This is dish is not only very inexpensive, but is DELISH, and oh so easy to tune to your own taste. Add broccoli, crushed red pepper, more garlic... Sometimes, instead of using grated parmesan cheese, I toast some Italian flavored bread crumbs in butter and use it instead, OMG-one word-Fantastic! My family loves it!

I modify this recipe without the water and also added in shrimp. It turned out even better!

This is a christmas eve dish in our familty. It is a part of the feast of seven fishes. We let the oil cook for hours with the anchovies and garlic in it. It gives it great flavor. When we do the anchovies they are chopped up very small and then they boil down in the oil so that those who are not fond of looking at the anchovies don't see them. Very good recipe..and the longer it simmers the better it is!!!!

I loved this reciepe but my husband hated it even though he likes anchovy's. Unfortunately I won't be making this again:(

Simple & tasty. I upped the garlic.

My husband loves anchovies so I prepared this especially for him. He gave it a "so-so" rating. He said it was a good starting point to dress more to his tastes. Thanks.

My fiance and I estimated that you would likely pay $16-20 for a plate like this in a restaurant in town!! And it was soooooo easy! Really delicious with some chopped tomatoes and brocoli in it and feta cheese on top. Thanks for the truly amazing recipe! Next time, I think I'll add shrimp or mussels to it and make a $25 recipe, or more!

This was absolutly amazing. Everyone needs to try this delicious recipe. I did doctor it up some by adding chopped green onions, extra garlic, chopped celery, and about a teaspoon of crushed red pepper. When the dish was done I threw the pasta right into the anchovy skillet along with a chopped tomato, two more chopped green onion, and a handful of chopped parsley--WOW!!! I'm sure without the additions it's still good, but I recommend adding your own personal touch.

So good! When I make this, I double the garlic (7 or 8 cloves) and just use one can of anchovies. I also add red pepper flakes. Its an awesome dish, but pretty rich. I usually serve it with a salad or as a side dish to chicken.

My boyfriend is a seafood lover and greatly enjoyed this recipe. I am not a huge fan of fishy tasting seafood, and this was definantly more fishy than I expected. I think for how few ingredients and how simple it is to prepare, it is a fabulous recipe. A big A+ from my other half, but if you are not a big fan of seafood, this might not be the pasta for you.

What a great recipe. Easy...Fast...Delicious. The only thing added was some red pepper flakes and a little more garlic. Next time, after plating, I may sprinkle some dice tomato on top drizzled with some good olive oil.

Let me say that this is an excellant classic sauce. It can hold as much garlic as you can, I also add red pepper flake which is more traditional. On a low carb diet? Try it out on butterflied grilled chicken breasts or fish. Insanely good and you come off looking like a gourmet

This was my first time cooking anchovies...and I must say, this recipe was not bad, though not entirely to my taste. For one thing, were the anchovies supposd to completely liquify and turn into part of the sauce? Because that's what happened to mine, and I followed the recipe exactly! Oh well, maybe I didn't do something right. However, the taste over-all was still pretty good. Thanks for the recipe.

I'm am anchovy fan and this is THE way to do anchovies. I'm not a fan of linguini, though, so I normally make this with spaghetti. A few tips: I don't add any water. I use more olive oil, though. You don't really need to simmer anchovies, just heat them through. Don't let them fall apart completely, you want some fillet pieces in there. This recipe relies on quality ingredients, so get the GOOD anchovies and oil. ALWAYS Use fresh parsley. I add it when I toss the pasta with the sauce, I don't cook it. I also add a lot of fresh black pepper. There's also no need for parmesan, it would just make this too salty.

I love anchovies, but had them only on salads & pizza. When I found this recipe, I just had to try it. It was, and is what "what you talking about good," and simple. Added greens for the vitamins.

This did not taste like I expected it to. I thought it would be salty but it wasn't. My husband and daughter loved it. I added tomatoes, mushrooms, green pepper, and garlic powder. This was so easy to make but next time I will use can clams instead of anchovies.
