BUCATINI AMATRICIANA WITH RICOTTA SALATA

Made this for dinner twice so far, and the second time it tasted even better. Cheesey and smokey works so well together in a rich tomato sauce:D Regina Schrambling says "starch is comfort" and "cheese is seduction" and when they're combined the result is pure pleasure. BF and I have to agree wholeheartedly. I can usually only find crushed tomatoes in puree, and that worked out very well so I added that as an option. I am vegetarian so I substituted vegetarian bacon for pancetta. Another recipe of the week from The Week magazine, originally from LA Times.

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ounces pancetta (optional, or bacon or veggie bacon)
1 tablespoon olive oil, best quality
1 small red onion, peeled, quartered and thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes (to taste)
1 (14 ounce) can Italian tomatoes (whole in puree) or 1 (14 ounce) can Italian tomatoes (crushed in puree)
kosher salt or sea salt
1/2 lb pasta (buccatini or perciatelli)
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup ricotta salata, finely crumbled

Steps:

  • If using, cut pancetta into i/4 inch dice. Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-low heat. Add pancetta and cook, stirring, until it crisps and renders its fat, about 10 minutes. Remove pancetta and set aside. Break into small pieces when cooled. Remove all but about 1 tablespoon of fat from the pan and discard.
  • Add oil and onion and cook, stirring often, until tender and translucent, about 10 minutes.
  • Add red pepper flakes then add tomatoes and crush against the pan if using whole. Cook, stir and crush tomatoes into small bits, for 5 minutes.
  • Simmer 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • While sauce cooks, bring large pot of water to a rolling boil with salt (about 1 Tbsp for every 2 quarts - it should be salty). Fifteen minutes before sauce is done, add pasta to water. Stir and then cook until al dente, 11-12 minutes or according to package directions.
  • Reserving 1/2 cup of cooking water, drain pasta in colander. Add butter and toss quickly, then transfer to pan with sauce. Stir until strands are thinly but evenly coated. Add a little cooking liquid if pasta seems dry. Add half Ricotta Salata and stir to combine well.
  • Transfer pasta to large bowl or platter and sprinkle with pancetta and remaining cheese. Serve hot.
  • For Vegetarian omit the pancetta or use vegetarian bacon.

BUCATINI ALL'AMATRICIANA

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces guanciale, cut in 1/4-inch strips
2 large onions, cut in 1/2-inch dice
1/2 to 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt
2 (28-ounce) cans San Marzano tomatoes, passed through the food mill
1 pound bucatini or perciatelli
1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, plus extra for garnish
1 tablespoon minced chives, for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • Coat a large saucepan with olive oil. Add the guanciale and saute over low heat. Cook until it is brown and crispy and has rendered a lot of fat. Remove and reserve 1/3 of the guanciale for garnish. Bring the pan to a medium heat and add the onions and crushed red pepper. Season generously with salt, to taste. Cook the onions until they are translucent, starting to turn golden and are very aromatic. Add the tomatoes and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer the sauce for about 1 hour, tasting periodically. Adjust the salt, as needed.
  • Bring a large pot of well salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook for 1 minute less than the instructions on the package. Remove 3 or 4 ladlefuls of the sauce from the pot to a bowl, as an insurance policy. You can always add it back in but it's harder to take out once the pasta is in the pan. You're looking for the perfect ratio between pasta and sauce. Drain the pasta from the water and add to the pot of sauce. Stir to coat with the sauce. This is how you always finish pasta; you cook it in the sauce to perform the marriage of the pasta and the sauce. Add more sauce, if necessary. Add in the cheese and drizzle with olive oil to really bring the marriage together. Toss to coat and serve in shallow bowls garnished with cheese and the reserved guanciale. Sprinkle with chives to finish, if using.
  • YUUUMMMEEEEE!

BUCATINI ALL'AMATRICIANA



Bucatini all'Amatriciana image

For a simple dish, pasta all'amatriciana is freighted with controversy. People in Amatrice say it originated in that central Italian town, as the name implies. But in Rome, about 60 miles away, chefs proudly claim it as their own and say its name has nothing to do with its origins. In Amatrice, the dish is simply pasta, tomatoes, cured pork and cheese. But Romans include onions and olive oil. Even the type of pasta is in dispute. After half a dozen plates of it during a recent trip to Italy, one detail became clear: for any pasta all'amatriciana to be authentic, it must be made with guanciale - cured, unsmoked pig jowl.

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, sliced thin
3 cloves garlic, sliced
1/4 pound guanciale, in 1-inch slivers 1/4 -inch thick
3 cups canned San Marzano tomatoes (about a 28-ounce can)
1/2 teaspoon red chile flakes, or to taste
Salt
1/4 cup grated aged pecorino cheese, more for serving
1 pound bucatini

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet. Add onion and garlic, and sauté over medium heat until transparent. Add guanciale and sauté until barely beginning to brown.
  • Break up tomatoes and add. Cook about 15 minutes, crushing tomatoes with a spoon, until sauce has become somewhat concentrated and homogenized. Season with chili and salt and stir in 1 tablespoon cheese. Remove from heat.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add bucatini and cook until al dente, about 9 minutes. Drain and transfer to skillet. Gently reheat contents of skillet, folding pasta and tomato sauce together until they are heated through and pasta is well-coated, about 5 minutes. Fold in remaining cheese. Check seasoning and serve with more cheese on the side.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for flavorful tomatoes, firm and slightly salty guanciale or pancetta, and a bitter-sweet pecorino cheese.
  • Cook the guanciale or pancetta until it is crispy and slightly browned. This will add a lot of flavor to the sauce.
  • Don't overcrowd the pasta in the pan when cooking it. This will prevent it from cooking evenly.
  • Add the pasta water to the sauce gradually, stirring constantly. This will help to create a smooth and creamy sauce.
  • Season the sauce to taste with salt, pepper, and chili flakes.
  • Garnish the pasta with grated pecorino cheese, chopped parsley, and a drizzle of olive oil.

Conclusion:

Bucatini all'Amatriciana is a classic Italian pasta dish with a delicious and flavorful tomato sauce. It is a simple dish to make, but it is packed with flavor. The combination of guanciale or pancetta, tomatoes, pecorino cheese, and chili flakes creates a rich and savory sauce that is perfect for any occasion.
