Fast, simple, easy and excellent to the palate. This is a variation of this symbolic dish of the Italian cuisine. Instead of the spaghetti, we decided to use bucatini, which are basically thicker spaghetti with a hole running through the center. "Buco" means "Hole" in Italian, that's the reason of the name.
We also used a top quality Italian brand for tomato sauce. I know what you are thinking, but this is a fast and easy recipe that anyone can do. Plus the flavor of the White Truffle Oil will take a big part in this dish.
