PASTA WITH BACON AND TOMATOES



Pasta with Bacon and Tomatoes image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds plum tomatoes (about 10)
6 strips thick-cut bacon, chopped
1 medium onion, halved and thinly sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
12 ounces spaghetti
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley or basil, chopped
Grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Hull the tomatoes and cut a shallow "x" through the skin on the bottom of each. Prepare an ice bath.
  • Put the tomatoes in the boiling water and boil for 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and submerge in the ice bath. Reserve the pot of boiling water. When the tomatoes are cool, use the back of a paring knife to peel the tomatoes. Cut the tomatoes in half lengthwise and squeeze out and discard the seeds, then chop the tomatoes into approximately 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Put the bacon in a large cold skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Discard all but about 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat from the skillet.
  • Add the onion to the drippings in the skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until soft and pale golden, about 10 minutes. Add the wine and boil until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the chopped tomatoes, red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes start to break down, about 5 minutes.
  • Cook the spaghetti according to the package directions in the reserved pot of tomato water until al dente, about 10 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water, then drain the pasta. Add the pasta to the skillet with the sauce, along with 1/2 cup of the cooking water and toss to coat. Add more water if necessary for desired consistency. Stir in half the bacon and half the herbs and season with salt and pepper. Divide the pasta and sauce among bowls and top with the remaining bacon and herbs. Serve with Parmesan for topping.

PASTA WITH TOMATOES AND BEANS



Pasta With Tomatoes and Beans image

This pasta is one reason I always keep a few cans of tomatoes and cannellinis in my pantry. Beans contribute protein to this pasta, which makes a great vegan dish if you serve it without the cheese.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, weekday, pastas, sauces and gravies, main course

Time 30m

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 14-ounce can chopped tomatoes, with juice
Pinch of sugar
Salt
freshly ground pepper
1 15-ounce can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
4 sage leaves or basil leaves, cut in slivers optional
3/4 pound pasta, any shape
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet or saucepan. Add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes. Add the garlic, and stir together until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes with juice and a pinch of sugar. Raise the heat slightly, and cook, stirring, until the tomatoes are bubbling vigorously. Lower the heat to medium-low, and cook gently, stirring and mashing the tomatoes often with the back of your spoon until they have cooked down into a thick, fragrant sauce, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the beans and the herbs, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
  • When the pasta water comes to a boil, salt generously and add the pasta. Cook al dente, following the recommendations on the package but checking about a minute before the indicated time. When the pasta is just about done, check to see if the tomato sauce seems dry. If so, add up to 1/4 cup of the pasta water to the pan and stir. Drain the pasta, toss with the sauce and serve, passing the cheese for sprinkling.

Pancetta can be substituted for the bacon. Any short tubular pasta is well suited to this sauce. If your tomatoes are tart, you may need to add up to 1/2 teaspoon sugar. From a back issue of Cooks Illustrated.

PASTA WITH FRESH TOMATO SAUCE



Pasta With Fresh Tomato Sauce image

I have been cooking a version of this dish practically since I first encountered it in a "60-Minute Gourmet" column, the brainchild of the late Pierre Franey, in January 1986. Why Pierre published the recipe in mid-winter is a mystery. To make the sauce my way you chop tomatoes; you put them in fat, whether that's olive oil, butter or, I suppose, rendered bacon fat; you cook them until they've broken down a bit and given up their liquid; and you dress pasta with the resulting sauce. (Pierre peeled the tomatoes first, because that was his style. He was a chef!) With good tomatoes, you can make this sauce in its most basic form - with no more than tomato, oil and salt - and it will be terrific. But you can jazz it up in a variety of ways; butter in place of oil changes its character noticeably. Parmesan is an obvious and welcome addition. Cooking a bit of chopped onion or minced garlic in the butter or oil - with or without rosemary, tarragon or thyme - before adding the tomatoes adds depth. Chopped basil at the end ... well, to me this is practically essential.

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, pastas, appetizer, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Salt
3 to 5 tablespoons butter or olive oil
1 1/2 pounds tomatoes, roughly chopped
1 pound linguine or other long pasta
1/2 cup shredded fresh basil leaves, if desired
Freshly grated Parmesan, if desired

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it. Put the butter or oil in a large skillet over medium heat; when the oil is hot or the butter's foam subsides, add the tomatoes.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break up, about 10 minutes, adding salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Meanwhile, cook the pasta until done; drain.
  • Toss together pasta and sauce, along with basil and Parmesan, if you like. Taste and adjust the seasoning and serve.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will make a big difference in the final flavor of your sauce. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have a slightly sweet smell.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of beans: Cannellini beans, black beans, and kidney beans all work well in this recipe. You could also try using a mix of different beans.
  • Don't overcook the beans: You want the beans to be tender, but not mushy. Cook them just until they are heated through.
  • Use good quality bacon: The bacon should be thick-cut and have a good smoky flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the bacon: This will prevent it from getting crispy.
  • Serve the sauce over your favorite pasta: This sauce is delicious with spaghetti, penne, or rotini.

Conclusion:

This fresh tomato sauce with beans and bacon is a delicious and easy-to-make meal. It's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual lunch. The sauce is flavorful and hearty, and the beans and bacon add a nice touch of protein. Serve it over your favorite pasta for a complete meal.
