Only Neapolitans use San Marzano, and unfortunately just a very few use basil. That is a margherita, as you would find it in 90% of pizzerias here in Italy.

Btw there's no such thing as "cheese pizza" in Italy, except for pizza "ai 4 formaggi" which is basically 4 different types of cheese with no sauce. If it has sauce and mozzarella, then it's a Margherita (OP probably used processed/shredded mozzarella)

Yeah it's kinda rare, I've only made some types of fresh pasta like tagliatelle and tortellini on special occasions

Oh I'm sorry then, the parm flakes deceived me xD. Anyway I was talking about boxed spaghetti, if you find a good Italian brand it's gonna be way better than making them yourself.

Looks good, man! Next time try it with spaghetti or mezze maniche and use pecorino romano if available. You'll get a wonderful creamy sauce

You don't live in Italy, do you? Here in Italy we call margherita every pizza with mozzarella, tomato sauce and a drizzle of evo oil. The og neapolitan one is usually made with san marzano tomatoes and fiordilatte
