Pasta alla gricia
Guanciale, parmesan and pepper. From the Italian Lazio region. With salad, grapes for dessert. Salad was pedestrian: arugula, onions, S&P, EVOO and freshly squeezed lemon juice. I wanted the attention to be on the pasta dish. Wow this is good. Big flavor from the guanciale and excellent balance with parmesan, pepper and pasta. Great mouth feel from crunchy guanciale, al dente pasta and smooth sauce. New recipe for me. Short ingredients list, a little tricky to make. Cheese : guanciale : pasta should be 1:1:2 proportion. Per serving: 2-2.5 oz guanciale cut into lardons 2.5 oz freshly grated parmesan freshly ground pepper 4 oz pasta Render guanciale in a saute pan, remove lardons and reserve, keeping the renderings on low heat. Cook pasta 3/4 done, then place in saute pan with renderings and add a few tbsp of starchy pasta water. Add crispy lardons to saute pan. Grate parmesan into a bowl and mix with a few tbsp of warm pasta water until a paste is created. Add cheese paste and a bit more pasta water to saute pan, and gently toss mixture using tongs. Generously season with freshly ground black pepper. Plate and enjoy. The tricky part is not overheating the cheese to avoid coagulation and heating it enough that it emulsifies with the renderings and pasta water. I rate my result at 90% (an "A-"). It's easy to coagulate the cheese if it is overheated, and when the mixture cools, the cheese locks up and creates a solid mass. I think in restaurants this dish is prepared at the table to allow the guest to enjoy it before it cools and firms up. I will make this again. This is in the family of "Roman" pasta dishes with sparse recipe lists. 1. Cace e pepe: cheese and pepper 2. Pasta alla gricia: 1 + guanciale 3. Pasta all'amatriciana: 2 + crushed tomatoes 4. Pasta carbonara: 2 + eggs I prefer long pasta (spaghetti, bucatini), but I think authentic Roman versions use rigatoni. Last edited by chassis; 08-21-2024 at 08:50 PM.. |

I need to get a dedicated pizza oven... But tough to find one that cooks over a 12" pie at a descent price. Takes an hour to preheat my stove's oven to a proper pizza temp. That said, rant over......pizza....

Steak frites, salad
Prime grade NY strip sautéed in EVOO, butter, garlic and thyme. Salad with arugula, cucumbers, onions, tomato and Syrian cheese. Fresh cut grapefruit for dessert. The Prime cut was good but not dramatically better than Choice grade. |

Last take out was disappointing so homemade except for the Egg Rolls; Sticky Chicken Wings, Veggie/Bacon Fried Rice and Sweet & Sour Pork Bites.

Friday pizza on Sunday. Why, you ask? Because I was too lazy to make dough on Friday. That's why. Please be gentle with your punishment.
Green bell pepper and tomatoes from the garden. |

Tabbouleh!
With grilled whole wheat Chaldean flatbread. Usual ingredients in the tabbouleh with two additions: Syrian cheese and cucumbers. Syrian cheese is firm, has a mild flavor and is reminiscent of mozzarella. Love the combination of fresh mint and parsley. Seasoned with EVOO, lemon juice, salt, pepper, sumac and cumin. |
