Instructions: 1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat; cook fettucine until just tender (8 minutes). Drain pasta and transfer to a large bowl; add 6 tablespoons of the olive oil and toss gently.

2. Mix tomatoes with salt, pepper, and garlic. Gradually stir in remaining 1 cup of olive oil. Stir in basil. Let sauce stand at room temperature for 1 or 2 hours. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Pass grated Parmesan cheese (if used).
