Drunken Red Wine Pasta Food

DRUNKEN RED WINE PASTA

Steps:

• Bring the wine and 8 cups water to a boil in a large pasta pot. Add the orecchiette and cook according to the package instructions. Drain, reserving some of the cooking liquid.
• As the pasta cooks, heat a large saute pan over medium heat and brown the pancetta. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon, leaving the fat behind. Add the shallots and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the pancetta back to the pan as well as the mascarpone and 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta cooking liquid (water/wine mixture). Stir to combine into a sauce, then mix in the cooked orecchiette; season with salt and pepper. Garnish with the thyme leaves if using.

SPICY RED-WINE SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Add the pasta and cook for 6 minutes, stirring pasta occasionally, until par-cooked. Drain and reserve the pasta water.
• In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, shallots, crushed red pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook until the garlic becomes fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the wine and tomato paste. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer gently for 3 minutes.
• Add the pasta to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until almost all of the wine is absorbed and the pasta is tender but still firm to the bite, about 5 minutes (if the pasta mixture is too dry, add pasta cooking water 1/4 cup at a time).
• Stir in the butter and 1 teaspoon salt. Increase the heat, and toss until the wine sauce thickens enough to coat the pasta, about 1 minute. Toss to blend.
• Add the parsley and goat cheese and serve.

RED WINE SPAGHETTI WITH PANCETTA

Steps:

• Put a large pot of well-salted water over high heat and bring to a boil. Add 1 cup wine and turn heat to low.
• Heat olive oil in a wide skillet over medium. Add pancetta to pan and let sizzle for 2 or 3 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Raise heat slightly and add onion. Season with salt and pepper and stir to coat. Continue to cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add garlic, red-pepper flakes and tomato paste, and stir to distribute. Add bay leaf and all the remaining red wine and turn flame to high. Let wine reduce rapidly by half, about 10 minutes. Turn off heat.
• Bring pasta water back to a boil, add pasta and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes less than the package directions advise - that is, keep the pasta quite firm and underdone. It will finish cooking in the sauce.
• Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, and drain the pasta. Add pasta to the red wine mixture in the skillet and turn heat to medium-high. Let pasta wilt into the sauce and continue cooking, stirring, as pasta absorbs the sauce. The spaghetti should be correctly al dente within a few minutes and the sauce should coat the pasta. Add a little pasta cooking water if sauce gets too thick.
• Stir in the reserved pancetta, the butter and half the grated cheese and toss well. Taste a noodle, and add a sprinkling of salt to the pan if necessary. Toss once more and transfer to a warm serving dish. Garnish with basil leaves and pass remaining cheese at the table.

DRUNKEN PASTA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil.
• Make the bread crumb gremolata: Heat the olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add the bread crumbs and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until the bread crumbs are golden brown, 2-4 minutes. Transfer the bread crumbs to a heatproof bowl.
• Add the parsley, lemon zest, and salt and stir to combine. Set aside.
• Make the drunken bucatini: Once the water is boiling, add the bucatini and cook until just shy of al dente, 6-7 minutes. Reserve ½ cup (240 ml) pasta cooking water, then drain.
• While pasta is cooking, heat a large, high-walled skillet over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add the olive oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring constantly, for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the pan and continue to stir for about 1 minute more, until the garlic starts to brown.
• Add the red wine to the pan and cook until reduced by about 25%, 2-3 minutes.
• Add the drained bucatini to the pan and toss gently with tongs. The wine will reduce more as the noodles cook through and soak up the wine, 2-3 minutes.
• Add the remaining 5 tablespoons of butter, the salt, and pepper. Toss until the butter is melted and the pasta is silky, about 2 minutes.
• Divide the pasta between 2 bowls and top with the bread crumb gremolata. Serve immediately.
