Timing Tips:
The puttanesca can easily be kept warm without any problems until needed.  The pasta, on the other hand, should be served soon after it is done.  Be sure you know how long the pasta will take and have the water close to boiling when you sit down for the salad.  The pasta can be added before you begin your salad or after, depending on how al-dente you wish the pasta to be and how leisurely the meal is progressing.
