AMATRICIANA SAUCE | PASTA AMATRICIANA RECIPE

Steps:

• cut guanciale into strips. Then place the red pepper in the frying pan and add the guanciale.
• Sauté the guanciale, turning it often with a wooden spoon, until the white fat part has become transparent and golden (about 5 min). Now is the time to add the white wine (optional). Keep the high heat and let it evaporate.
• Add peeled tomatoes with their sauce, stir, then cook Amatriciana sauce for 10 minutes on medium heat. Add fine salt to taste.
• When the sauce is ready, remove the red pepper and keep the sauce aside. Meanwhile, cook pasta in plenty of salted water. Season and serve.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
• Meanwhile, unroll the pancetta. Cut it into 1-inch long chunks, and then slice each chunk thinly across the grain.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over moderately low heat. Add the pancetta and cook until it renders some of its fat, about 5 minutes. Do not allow it to crisp. Add the onion and cook until soft, about 10 minutes. While the onion is cooking, add the pasta to the boiling water.
• Add the red pepper flakes and parsley to the onion mixture and cook briefly to release their fragrance. Add the vinegar and simmer briefly until it evaporates, then add the tomato puree and 1/4 cup of the pasta water. Simmer briefly to blend.
• When the pasta is just shy of al dente, drain it and return it to the warm pot over moderate heat. Add the sauce and cook briefly so the pasta absorbs some of the sauce, then transfer the pasta to a warmed serving bowl and shower with the pecorino. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs. Reserve 3/4 cup cooking water, then drain.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta and red onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes; cook until the garlic is just softened, about 1 minute. Stir in the tomatoes, basil and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Gently simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
• Add the pasta to the sauce and toss to coat, gradually adding the reserved cooking water as needed to loosen; discard the basil. Add the parmesan, season with salt and toss again. Top each serving of pasta with more parmesan and red pepper flakes.
