Pasta With Bacon Sugar Snap Peas And Red Wine Recipes

Steps:

• In a 6-qt. stockpot, bring 16 cups water to a boil. Add peas; cook, uncovered, just until crisp-tender, 3-4 minutes. Using a strainer, remove peas from pot., In same pot, add pasta to boiling water; cook according to package directions. Drain, reserving 1 cup cooking water; return to pot. Toss with 3 tablespoons oil., In a large skillet, heat remaining oil over medium heat; saute onion until tender, 2-3 minutes. Add garlic and seasonings; cook and stir 1 minute.

Steps:

• Put on a pot of salted water to boil.
• Heat up a large skillet over medium. Spray lightly with cooking spray.
• Add chopped bacon and stir. Let bacon cook about 5 minutes until it starts to brown and bacon grease gets released into pan.
• Add shallots, garlic, pinch of red pepper flakes and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Stir and cook until shallots and garlic begin to brown, about 2 more minutes.
• Add first 2 tbsp of red wine and carefully scrap down the pan to make sure all the little bits are being picked up. Let cook 2-3 minutes and repeat, adding another 1/4 tsp of black pepper.
• Meanwhile, add pasta to boiling water and cook per instructions. Add sugar snap peas 1 min, 15 seconds before pasta cooking time is up. (This will make them tender crisp. Change cooking time if you like them more/less tender).
• Repeat the process with the wine until it has all been used, adding additional salt and pepper to taste.
• Once all wine has been added, move heat to low/medium low. Add 1 tbsp red wine.
• Drain pasta/snow peas and add into skillet. If your skillet is not large enough this can be done in a new bowl. Thoroughly combine bacon mixture with pasta, really scrapping the sides of the pan to make sure all the flavors are incorporated.
• Add 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and 2 tbsp fresh parsley. Mix again.
• Serve and enjoy! I usually keep a cup of cheese on the table for people to add more as they see fit.

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a large saute pan. Add the Pancetta and saute until slightly brown. Add the garlic, saute briefly, and then deglaze with the wine. Reduce the wine by half, and then add the heavy cream. Reduce this by one third, and then toss in your cooked pasta. Heat the pasta through and add the Parmesan, white pepper, and salt and toss. Pour into bowls and add more Parmesan cheese (as much as you like).
• Ask your butcher for a 5 pound, nice square piece of pork belly (skinless) that will fit into a 2-gallon zip-top bag.
• Pat the belly with paper towels to dry. Mix together all the spices. Wearing plastic gloves, rub the cure mixture into both sides of the belly. Place in a 2-gallon zip-top bag, put on a sheet pan, and refrigerate. Every day for 1 week, turn the bag over and massage the belly (through the bag) to ensure saturation. The pork will take on a slightly darker color than what it was. This is a sign that the cure is working. It will also draw some moisture out of the belly. When the meat is darker and firmer, remove the belly from the bag and run under water to remove any cure sediment. Pat dry and lightly cover with a dusting of ground white pepper. Roll the belly very tightly into a log and wrap tightly with cheesecloth. Tie the end and hang in a 34 to 38 degree F refrigerator for at least 2 weeks.At this time the bacon should be fully cured and have a good firmness when squeezed.

Steps:

Add bacon back to the skillet and remove pan from heat. Transfer to a serving dish and enjoy!
