Steps:

• Heat oil in a wide heavy medium pot over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then sauté onion until golden, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and sauté until golden, about 1 minute. Add prosciutto and sauté until golden, about 4 minutes.
• Add tomatoes with reserved juice, sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Cool, uncovered, then chill, covered, at least 8 hours (to allow flavors to develop).
• Cook penne in a pasta pot of boiling salted water (3 tablespoons salt for 6 quarts water) until al dente. Drain well.
• While pasta cooks, reheat sauce over medium heat.
• Toss pasta with some of sauce in a serving bowl and serve remaining sauce on the side.
• Cooks' note: Sauce can be chilled up to 3 days.

Steps:

• In a large casserole or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the celery, carrot, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Sauté until all the vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes longer. Add the tomatoes and bay leaf, and simmer uncovered over low heat until the sauce thickens, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour. Add 1 cup of water if the sauce gets too thick. Remove and discard the bay leaf.
• Place the minced anchovies and some of their oil in a medium, heavy skillet. Stir over medium heat until the anchovies melt, about 2 minutes. Add the olives, capers, remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and red pepper flakes. Sauté until the olives are heated through, about 2 minutes. Stir the olive mixture into the sauce and simmer over medium heat until the flavors blend, stirring frequently, about 5 minutes. Season with more salt to taste.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the penne and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring often to prevent the pasta from sticking together, about 10 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the pasta water. Add the penne to the sauce and toss to coat, adding enough of the reserved pasta water to moisten. Transfer the pasta to a large serving bowl. Sprinkle with the parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Roughly chop garlic. Heat the oil in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat. When the oil is warm add the garlic and sauté for 3 mins or until golden along the edges.
• Add the canned tomatoes to a saucepot and cook for 20 minutes. Add salt and pepper taste, and then add the chili flakes. Pass the sauce mix through a food mill or process until smooth and pour into a large skillet.
• Reduce heat to low and let the sauce simmer. Meanwhile bring a pot of water to boil for the Penne. While the pasta is cooking coarsely chop the parsley and set aside. Drain the pasta when it is al dente and pour it into the skillet with the tomato sauce. Add the vodka and mix very well. Increase the heat to medium and sauté for 1 minute. Add the cream and mix until the evenly spread. Pour into a nice serving dish and garnish with the chopped parsley. Serve hot.
