Subj : E-Z PASTA - 11 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Mon Feb 06 2023 04:20:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Salami Pasta Alla Gricia Categories: Five, Pasta, Beef, Cheese Yield: 5 servings Salt 1 lb Tubed, curved or long pasta 1 tb Extra-virgin olive oil 6 oz Log salami; casing discarded - meat coarse chopped 1 ts Coarse ground black pepper 2 oz Fine grated pecorino or - Parmesan; more to serve Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 2 cups of the pasta water, then drain the pasta. While the pasta cooks, in a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the oil and salami over medium-low. Cook, stirring often, until crisp and golden-brown, 7 to 10 minutes. (Don’t be tempted to raise the heat, as you need the fat to fully render from the salami to form the sauce.) Remove from heat and stir in the black pepper until fragrant. Set aside until the pasta’s ready. Add 1½ cups pasta water to the salami and simmer over medium-low heat, shaking and stirring until the water emulsifies with the fat to create a homogeneous liquid, 2 to 4 minutes. Add the cooked pasta and pecorino, and cook, shaking the pot and stirring vigorously until the cheese is melted and the sauce glosses the noodles, 2 to 4 minutes. If the sauce is thin, keep simmering. If you can’t see the sauce in the bottom of the pot or on the noodles, add more pasta water and keep stirring over medium-low. Serve right away, with more pecorino on top. By: Ali Slagle Yield: 4 to 6 servings RECIPE FROM: https://cooking.nytimes.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM .... Daffynition: Organic. (adj.)
