12 ounces spaghetti or linguini
4-6 Mint Julep tomatoes, chopped with juices reserved
1 shallot, sliced
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 tablespoon capers
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves (about 8 sprigs, stripped from the stem)
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
2 teaspoons lemon zest (minced preserved lemon would also be good)
1 cup vermouth
3 1/2 cups water
sea salt
olive oil
cracked black pepper
grated Parmesan cheese for serving

1
Put all the ingredients up through the water in a large skillet with steep enough sides to hold everything. Add a generous glug of olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt, and a grind or two of black pepper.
2
Turn the heat to high. While the pasta cooks, use tongs to move it around the pan so the spaghetti doesn't stick. Continue cooking for 9-11 minutes, until pasta is al dente and the water and vermouth has cooked down into a nice, thick sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste.
3
Divide pasta into bowls, spooning sauce evenly over each. Serve with additional olive oil, black pepper, and Parm, if desired.
