• The same with the other ingredients- add the herbs you want in the amounts you want.
• You can saute 1/2 of an onion with the garlic if you like it.
• Note 2- You can substitute fresh herbs, but if you do double the measurement, and add them during the last few minutes of cooking.
• Note 3- add some raw, peeled shrimp to the sauce for the last five minutes for shrimp pasta.
