Comments:
Much more economical, slightly less convenient, to get one of the tins of paste I get in our local Turkish shop if you can find them. You have to be careful to keep them from growing fungus if you take too long to use them but the Italian who used to keep a shop round the corner gave me some useful advice - keep the surface exposed to the air covered with olive oil.
 
We can get this in Sun Valley!
 
@Annonymous, REALLY? Must be because you have a lot of world travelers come through S.V. ! :)
@Owen, fungi here are a big problem. I prefer the tube, I just don't eat all that much spaghetti, sometimes I get a wild craving for it, and I just want it to be easy and fast.
