Drunken Spaghetti With Black Kale Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet. Add the Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes and garlic and cook for 3 minutes. Turn the heat off. Add the red wine, turn on the heat and bring it to a boil. Season with a dash of salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, add the spaghetti to the boiling water and cook for 3 minutes. Drain the pasta, reserving some of the water, and add the pasta to the skillet with the simmering wine. Stir everything together with tongs and cook for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a saute pan. Add the sliced mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and fry until cooked on both sides. Drizzle over the balsamic vinegar and toss.
• Add the final tablespoon of butter to the pasta and stir through. You can add some of the reserved pasta water if you need loosen the sauce. Add the sauteed mushrooms and stir through. Garnish with the grated Parmesan and torn basil leaves.

Steps:

• Bring salted water to boil in a large pot. Add the spaghetti and cook for 6 to 7 minutes, pasta should still be a little firm in the middle (just before the pasta is al dente).
• In a saucepan, heat the extra-virgin olive oil. Add the garlic, anchovy fillets and chili peppers, and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the spaghetti to the pan, and toss well. Pour in the red wine, and cook until it has reduced and the spaghetti has finished cooking. Add freshly chopped parsley and grated pecorino cheese to pasta, and toss well.
• Remove the pasta from heat, transfer to a warm bowl and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place the mushrooms, stock and 2 cups water in a pot and bring to a gentle simmer to reconstitute the mushrooms.
• Heat a soup pot over medium to medium-high heat with the olive oil. Melt the butter into the oil and add the pasta pieces. Brown the pasta until nutty and very fragrant. Remove the browned pasta and reserve in an airtight container for a make-ahead meal. If you are making the soup the same night you are serving it, leave it in the pot.
• Add the garlic, celery, carrots and onions to the pot, season with salt and pepper and partially cover the pan to sweat vegetables, 7 to 8 minutes. Wilt in the kale and season with a little freshly grated nutmeg.
• Remove the reconstituted mushrooms from the stock with a slotted spoon. Chop the mushrooms and add to the kale and vegetables. Add all but the last few spoonfuls of the soaking liquid to the soup pot. Add the beans and bring to a simmer.
• Cool and store for a make-ahead meal. To serve, simmer the pasta in the soup until al dente. Ladle the soup into shallow bowls and top with grated cheese.

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.
• Enjoy!
