Don't Panic Pantry: Amatriciana-ish

Показать описание
This is one of the all-time great pastas in the world, and as luck would have it, we are sharing the official recipe from the great cookbook, "Tasting Rome" by Katie Parla and Kristina Gill, as made at Roscioli (one of the great restaurants in the world). Here it is!

Bombolotti all' Amatriciana di Roscioli

serves 4 to 6

3 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
7 ounces Guanciale, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 medium shallots, minced
sea salt
1 (28-ounce) can whole tomatoes (we like San Marzano), hand crushed
1 pound bombolotti (also called mezze maniche) or other short, tubular, ridged pasta
3/4 cup grated Pecorino Romano

Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a small skillet over low heat. When the oil begins to shimmer, add the guanciale. Cook, stirring, until golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.

Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the shallots and season with salt. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes, then add the tomatoes and increase the heat to medium. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced slightly and tastes less acidic. Add the guanciale and rendered fat to the pan with the tomatoes.

While the sauce is cooking, bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil over high heat. Salt the water. When the salt has dissolved, add the pasta. Cook until very al dente, then drain, reserving the cooking water.

Add the pasta to the tomato sauce in the skillet and toss to coat. Add enough reserved pasta cooking water to nearly cover the pasta. Simmer, stirring, adding more cooking water as needed, until the pasta is al dente. Remove the skillet from the heat, add 1/2 cup of the Pecorino Romano, and mix well. Season with salt to taste.

Plate and sprinkle each portion with some of the remaining Pecorino Romano. Serve immediately.

Great content! And I love this recipe especially because it's a great pantry raid dinner. I usually have most of these ingredients (or at least a variation of) on hand so thank you!

Bucatini should be used only for casseroles

100% agree with you Noah! Bucatini are a pain in the ass to twirl on a fork. I would have added some red pepper flakes to the sauce.

That looks delicious and now I'm hungry..! I noticed your cookwares are all stainless steel. Will it be too far fetched and not on brand if you do a video about stainless steel and how to take care of them so they always look nice and shiny?

I've been trying to figure out a reliable way to make this veggie, lately, but having never had (and never gonna have) guanciale, I don't want to necessarily default to mushrooms and liquid smoke. Is there something I'm missing?

Don't diss buccatini, Galuten, there's a place for all the pasta out there. 😊 I'd use them with a thin but rich and strongly flavoured sauce, probably cream based though.

I have 3 different bucatinis in my pantry, and I love them all! I usually agree with your crazier cooking opinions, but I won’t be on board with this one.

I totally disagree about bucatini. Bucatini is fabulous!
