Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Add the pasta and cook for 6 minutes, stirring pasta occasionally, until par-cooked. Drain and reserve the pasta water.
• In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, shallots, crushed red pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook until the garlic becomes fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the wine and tomato paste. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer gently for 3 minutes.
• Add the pasta to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until almost all of the wine is absorbed and the pasta is tender but still firm to the bite, about 5 minutes (if the pasta mixture is too dry, add pasta cooking water 1/4 cup at a time).
• Stir in the butter and 1 teaspoon salt. Increase the heat, and toss until the wine sauce thickens enough to coat the pasta, about 1 minute. Toss to blend.
• Add the parsley and goat cheese and serve.

SPAGHETTINI COOKED IN RED WINE WITH RAPINI

Steps:

• In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the broccoli for about 3 min. Transfer to a baking sheet and spread out to cool. In the same boiling water, cook spaghettini, stirring occasionally, for 2 min if fresh, 3 to 5 min if dried; if using spaghetti, cook for 2 min if fresh, 6 to 8 min if dried. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water, then drain pasta and set aside. Add the wine and sugar to the pasta pot. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook to reduce by half, 8 to 10 min. Add the pasta to the pot and gently stir with tongs to prevent the pasta from sticking to the pot. Boil over high heat, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is absorbed and the pasta is al dente,about 3 min for spaghettini and 4 or 5 min for spaghetti. Tasting tells you when the pasta is ready better than the clock can. While the pasta cooks in the wine, heat a large, deep saute pan or skillet over high heat. Add the oil, reduce to medium-low, and saute the garlic until pale golden, about 3 min. Add the chile paste or red pepper flakes, blanched broccoli, and salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 to 2 min. Stir in 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water. Add the broccoli mixture to the pasta, toss gently, and transfer to individual pasta bowls or one large platter. Sprinkle with cheese ( I mixed a lot of cheese directly into the spaghetti add the end, while still in pot.)

RED-WINE SPAGHETTI WITH BROCCOLI RABE

Steps:

• Cut broccoli rabe into 1-inch wide florets. Blanch in a 6 to 8 quart pot of boiling salted water, uncovered, 2 minutes. Transfer with slotted spoon to a large colander to drain, reserving broccoli-cooking liquid in pot, then transfer broccoli to a bowl.
• Return cooking liquid to a boil and cook spaghetti, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes (pasta will not be fully cooked). Reserve 1 cup of pasta water and drain pasta in colander and return empty pot to stovetop. Add wine and sugar to pot and boil vigorously 2 minutes until liquid is reduced a bit. Add spaghetti and shake pot to prevent pasta from sticking. Gently stir with tongs until coated and boil over high heat, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is absorbed, about 6 minutes (pasta will be al dente). Immediately after adding spaghetti to wine mixture, cook garlic and red pepper flakes in the olive oil in a large, deep skillet over moderately low heat, shaking skillet occasionally, until garlic is pale golden, about 5 minutes. Add broccoli, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add 1/2 cup of reserved pasta water.
• Pour broccoli into skillet with the spaghetti mixture and carefully toss with tongs to combine (skillet will be very full). Cook while stirring, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, season with freshly ground black pepper and drizzle with a bit of olive oil. Stir in the grated cheese. Serve immediately.

FUSILLI WITH RAPINI (BROCCOLI RABE), GARLIC, AND TOMATO WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Fill a saucepan with enough water to cover the broccoli rabe, sprinkle in some salt, and bring the salted water to a boil. Stir in the broccoli rabe, and cook until bright green and just starting to become tender, about 2 minutes; drain the rabe, and cool in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain well, and pat dry with paper towels.
• Fill a pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the fusilli, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
• While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat, and cook and stir the 2 roughly-chopped garlic cloves until they start to turn translucent, about 2 minutes; sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and stir in rosemary sprig, dried Italian herb mix, and crushed red pepper flakes.
• Stir in the blanched rabe, white wine, and tomatoes; remove rosemary sprig, and bring the mixture to a boil. Mix in the cooked fusilli pasta, green onions, and 1 minced clove of garlic; simmer for 1 more minute, and serve topped with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.

CHICKEN AND RAPINI PENNE PASTA

Steps:

• Trim thick stems off rapini and coarsely chop.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add rapini, return to a boil, and cook until stems are crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the water with a slotted spoon and allow to drain completely. Save the pot of water to cook the penne in.
• Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add red onion and cook for 2 minutes. Add garlic and red pepper flakes; cook for 30 seconds. Add rapini and white wine; cook until the wine is reduced by half.
• Meanwhile, return the pot of water to a boil. Add penne and cook until almost tender, about 10 minutes. Drain penne, reserving 1/2 cup of the starchy cooking water.
• Add the penne to the pan with the rapini. Add chicken, reserved cooking water, and chicken bouillon. Continue to cook until penne is tender yet firm to the bite, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in 1/4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Divide among serving bowls and serve with remaining cheese.

RED WINE SPAGHETTI WITH PANCETTA

Steps:

• Put a large pot of well-salted water over high heat and bring to a boil. Add 1 cup wine and turn heat to low.
• Heat olive oil in a wide skillet over medium. Add pancetta to pan and let sizzle for 2 or 3 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Raise heat slightly and add onion. Season with salt and pepper and stir to coat. Continue to cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add garlic, red-pepper flakes and tomato paste, and stir to distribute. Add bay leaf and all the remaining red wine and turn flame to high. Let wine reduce rapidly by half, about 10 minutes. Turn off heat.
• Bring pasta water back to a boil, add pasta and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes less than the package directions advise - that is, keep the pasta quite firm and underdone. It will finish cooking in the sauce.
• Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, and drain the pasta. Add pasta to the red wine mixture in the skillet and turn heat to medium-high. Let pasta wilt into the sauce and continue cooking, stirring, as pasta absorbs the sauce. The spaghetti should be correctly al dente within a few minutes and the sauce should coat the pasta. Add a little pasta cooking water if sauce gets too thick.
• Stir in the reserved pancetta, the butter and half the grated cheese and toss well. Taste a noodle, and add a sprinkling of salt to the pan if necessary. Toss once more and transfer to a warm serving dish. Garnish with basil leaves and pass remaining cheese at the table.

GARLIC RAPINI AND PASTA

Steps:

• Start by taking the rapini and removing any yellow leaves, (if they exist); Chop off the ends of the stalks about 1/2 inch to get rid of any dry tips.
• Now fill your sink with cold water and let the leaves soak in the water, moving them around, to remove any debris between them and also clean them; you will get to cook them a little later.
• Take a large pot, I use one about 16" high; Fill the pot with 3/4 water and add 2 tbsp of salt; Bring the water to a boil on your stove.
• Drain rapini from cold water and then add them to boiling water.
• You must cook them until they get soft; Continue boiling for at least 1/2 hr (until tender).
• Strain rapini from boiling water; Take rapini and try the best you can to squeeze out the water from the cooked bunch; This could take some muscle work but will be well worth it when you mix it with the other ingredients later; (Use a heavy spoon to press the cooked rapini into the strainer); Continue until most water is squeezed out; You should be able to roll the rapini into a ball now; Put rapini aside until later.
• Take your garlic head and peel all of the cloves off, (remove skins).
• Using a garlic presser, crush each clove until the entire garlic head has been processed.
• Take half of your olive oil and heat it in a large skillet.
• Sauté the pressed/crushed garlic in the hot oil until the garlic begins to brown.
• Add the rapini by breaking it into chunks, and spread it out over the surface to the garlic oil, in the skillet.
• Add the remainder of your olive oil and continue to sauté the garlic, rapini and oil until the rapini has soaked up the olive oil; (about 10 min).
• Boil the rotini pasta until it is the softness you desire, note: Add some salt to the boiling water while cooking the rotini, (pinch).
• Strain cooked rotini and place back into pan.
• Mix margarine, cayenne pepper, black pepper and romano cheese until the rotini is well coated.
• Add garlic rapini and oil from skillet into pan, over the rotini; Mix until the rotini is well coated.
• Serve with a sprinkle of grated cheese; Enjoy!

RED WINE PASTA

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large straight-sided skillet over medium. Add pancetta and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp and lightly browned, about 6 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer pancetta to paper towels to drain. Add shallot, garlic, and red pepper flakes to pan; season with salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully add red wine; increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Boil 2 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of generously salted boiling water for 4 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water. Add pasta to pot with red wine; cook, stirring occasionally, until pasta is bright red and al dente and most of wine has been absorbed, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in cheese and pancetta. Stir in pasta water as needed to loosen sauce. Serve with more cheese, parsley, and red pepper flakes.

SPAGHETTI WITH RED WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it. Put the oil, garlic and hot pepper in a large, deep skillet.
• When the water boils, add the pasta; turn the heat under the skillet to high. Cook the pasta as usual, stirring. As soon as the garlic begins to brown, sprinkle it with salt and pepper to taste and add three-quarters of the bottle of wine (a little more than two cups); bring to a boil and keep it there.
• When the pasta beings to bend--after less than five minutes of cooking--drain it and add it to the wine mixture. Cook, stirring occasionally, adding wine a little at a time if the mixture threatens to dry out completely.
• Taste the pasta frequently. When it is done--tender but with a little bite--stir in the butter and turn off the heat. When the butter glazes the pasta, serve it immediately.
