Linguine with tomato-cream sauce, capers, and rosemary is an elegant dish of Italian cuisine that combines vibrant tomato flavor with a delicate creamy texture. Historically, pasta with tomato sauce originated in Naples, and the addition of cream and capers gives it a more refined character. Fragrant rosemary adds freshness and depth to the composition, while capers provide a tangy note. It is served with grated Parmesan cheese that harmoniously completes the flavor palette. This dish is perfect for both a cozy dinner and a festive table where sophistication meets simplicity in preparation.
