There are a variety of ideas of where this recipe originated, but it is thought to date to the mid-twentieth century. Some say a restaurant in Ischia created the first puttamesca, while the more romatic story is that ladies of the evening in Naples created it. There are almost as many explanations for the origins of pasta puttanesca as there are ways to make it. Ostensibly a sauce invented and made by prostitutes, it was designed to lure customers with its powerful aroma. Whatever the origin, no better cold-weather pasta sauce has come down to us.
