EASY ITALIAN SALAMI PASTA SALAD
This is a recipe that is easy to make from ingredients that are often in the fridge/ storecupboard. If it is served straight after the minimum 30 minute chill time, you may find that there is a lot of dressing in the salad- this is so that it doesn't dry out if it is stored in the fridge for a few days. Serves 4 as a side dish but this would also make a good take-to work lunch or potluck dish.

SALAMI PASTA ALLA GRICIA
Pasta alla gricia is among the most versatile Roman pastas, and arguably foundational: Add tomato for amatriciana, add egg for carbonara or remove the pork for cacio e pepe. As one origin story goes, shepherds in Amatrice brought guanciale, pecorino and pasta on their journeys, and made these dishes for sustenance. Guanciale (cured jowl) isn't especially common in the United States, so, in the spirit of the shepherds using what was available to them, this recipe uses salami. Like guanciale, salami gives off deeply flavored fat to build the pasta sauce on. But salami provides even more crispy bits of meat to stud this rich, silky, deceptively simple pasta.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 2 cups of the pasta water, then drain the pasta.
- While the pasta cooks, in a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the oil and salami over medium-low. Cook, stirring often, until crisp and golden-brown, 7 to 10 minutes. (Don't be tempted to raise the heat, as you need the fat to fully render from the salami to form the sauce.) Remove from heat and stir in the black pepper until fragrant. Set aside until the pasta's ready.
- Add 1½ cups pasta water to the salami and simmer over medium-low heat, shaking and stirring until the water emulsifies with the fat to create a homogeneous liquid, 2 to 4 minutes.
- Add the cooked pasta and pecorino, and cook, shaking the pot and stirring vigorously until the cheese is melted and the sauce glosses the noodles, 2 to 4 minutes. If the sauce is thin, keep simmering. If you can't see the sauce in the bottom of the pot or on the noodles, add more pasta water and keep stirring over medium-low.
- Serve right away, with more pecorino on top.
Tips:
- Choose the right pasta: Short pastas like penne, macaroni, or rotini are ideal for pasta salad because they hold the dressing and toppings well. Avoid long, thin pastas like spaghetti or linguine, as they tend to get tangled and difficult to eat in a salad.
- Cook the pasta al dente: Al dente pasta has a slight bite to it and will hold its shape better in the salad. To achieve al dente pasta, cook it for 1-2 minutes less than the package instructions.
- Rinse the pasta with cold water: Rinsing the pasta with cold water stops the cooking process and prevents the pasta from becoming sticky.
- Use a flavorful dressing: The dressing is what brings the pasta salad together, so make sure you use a flavorful one. A simple vinaigrette made with olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper is a good option. You can also use a store-bought dressing, but be sure to taste it first and adjust the seasonings as needed.
- Add a variety of toppings: The possibilities for toppings are endless, so feel free to get creative. Some popular options include salami, hard-boiled eggs, diced vegetables, cheese, and nuts.
- Chill the pasta salad before serving: Chilling the pasta salad allows the flavors to meld and makes it more refreshing. Be sure to chill the pasta salad for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
Pasta salad is a versatile and delicious dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or a picnic. With so many different variations, there's sure to be a pasta salad recipe that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give pasta salad a try. You won't be disappointed!
