Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 2 dinner servings, 3 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon whole black Tellicherry peppercorns
Kosher salt
1/2 pound dried Italian egg pasta, such as tagliarelle
1 cup freshly grated aged Pecorino cheese (4 ounces), plus extra for serving
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Place the peppercorns in a mortar and pestle and crush them until you have a mixture of coarse and fine bits. (You can also grind them in a small food mill or coffee grinder.) Set aside.
  • Fill a large, heavy-bottomed pot with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon salt and the pasta and cook according to the directions on the package until al dente. Ladle 1 cup of the pasta cooking water into a glass measuring cup and reserve it. Drain the pasta quickly in a colander and return the pasta to the pot with a lot of the pasta water still dripping.
  • Working quickly, with the heat on very low, toss the pasta with 1/2 cup of the grated Pecorino, the crushed peppercorns, cream, butter, parsley, and 1 teaspoon salt, tossing constantly. If the pasta seems dry, add some of the reserved cooking water. Off the heat, toss in the remaining 1/2 cup Pecorino. Serve immediately with a big bowl of extra grated Pecorino for sprinkling.

PASTA WITH PROSCIUTTO AND WHOLE GARLIC



Pasta With Prosciutto and Whole Garlic image

This pasta dish, known as maccheroni alla San Giovanniello in Italy, is amazing in the summer months, when there are good fresh tomatoes around. But you can make it any time of year with canned tomatoes. You could also make it with much less prosciutto, really just enough to season the oil - a quarter cup or so. No matter how much you use, start with a hunk of prosciutto so you can dice chunks; you don't want little thin slices. If you've got great basil, you can even skip the cheese. If you use fresh tomatoes, you can blanch and peel the tomatoes if you don't like the skins, but it's not really necessary.

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, pastas, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/3 cup olive oil or butter
10 cloves garlic, lightly crushed
1/2 cup prosciutto or other salted ham or slab bacon, cut into cubes or strips
6 plum tomatoes, or 1 1/2 cups drained canned tomatoes
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pound cut pasta, such as ziti or penne
1 cup roughly chopped fresh basil leaves
1 cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano or Parmesan cheese, or a combination

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  • Combine the oil, garlic, and ham in a medium to large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until the garlic becomes deep golden, nearly brown, all over, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Core and chop the plum tomatoes (or crush the canned tomatoes) and add them, along with salt and pepper, to the skillet. Stir and simmer while you salt the boiling water and cook the pasta.
  • Drain the pasta when it is tender but firm, reserving a little of the cooking water and adding it to the sauce if it appears dry (quite likely if you used fresh tomatoes). Toss the pasta with the sauce and most of the basil, along with the cheese. Mince the remaining basil, garnish the pasta with it, and serve.

WHOLE-GRAIN SPAGHETTI WITH PECORINO, PROSCIUTTO AND PEPPER (FALL) image

Categories     Pasta     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients
1 pound whole-grain (or whole-wheat) spaghetti
2 tablespoons mixed colored peppercorns, coarsely ground
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 cups grated (6 ounces) pecorino
6 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Directions Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 to 10 minutes. While the pasta is cooking: Heat a small, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add the peppercorns and toast for about 20 to 30 seconds. Add the oil and cook for 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat. Drain the pasta reserving about 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Transfer the spaghetti to a large serving bowl. Add 1 cup of the pecorino and toss to combine, gradually adding reserved pasta water, if needed, to loosen up the pasta. Add the oil mixture, prosciutto, 2 tablespoons of parsley, and 2 tablespoons of basil. Toss well to combine all ingredients. Garnish with the remaining pecorino, parsley, and basil.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish. Look for whole-grain spaghetti, a nutty and flavorful cheese, and high-quality prosciutto.
  • Cook the spaghetti al dente. This means that it should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked spaghetti will be mushy and bland.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the spaghetti. This will prevent the spaghetti from cooking evenly.
  • Add the spaghetti to the sauce right away after it is cooked. This will help to prevent the spaghetti from sticking together.
  • Garnish the dish with fresh herbs, such as parsley or basil. This will add a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

This whole grain spaghetti with pecorino, prosciutto, and pepper recipe is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is made with healthy ingredients and is packed with flavor. With a few simple tips, you can make this dish at home and impress your family and friends.
