What's For Dinner Tonight?

chassis · 11-01-2024, 05:36 PM

Pasta e fagioli!
Pasta and beans

Not the classic soup but rather a ragu or Roman-style pasta dish. Really good!

1/4 lb pasta - small shapes, I used (dried) gnocchi
1 can white beans - cannellini, butter beans or any white bean
1 fennel bulb and stalks, chopped
1/3 cup grated pecorino romano
Red pepper flakes
Freshly ground black pepper
EVOO
Salt to taste

Sautee fennel in EVOO until 2/3 done. Cook pasta until almost al dente. Drain beans, add to fennel. Add pasta to fennel and beans, reserving pasta water. Season liberally with red pepper flakes and ground black pepper. Add 1/4c pasta water and mix on medium heat. Continue cooking until pasta is done. Add more pasta water if needed. Turn off heat. Add most of the cheese and toss and mix well. Garnish with chopped fennel fronds, more cheese and pepper flakes.

Grapes for dessert!

Would pair well with braised pork shoulder or braised beef ribs if meat is simply seasoned with S&P. Fennel has a gentle and distinct flavor that would be overcome by a heavy sauce from the meat. Another variant is delete the cheese and add shrimp. Another topping is fried bread crumbs. This is a versatile dish.

Fettuccini alle vongole!

Fettuccini with white clam sauce. Recipe from several examples on yt. Aden Films is my latest go-to.

Fettuccini
1 can clams
Garlic
3 anchovy filets
EVOO
Butter
Parsley
Lemon juice
Lemon zest
Red pepper flakes
Freshly ground black pepper
Breadcrumbs in EVOO and anchovies

Fry anchovies in EVOO until they dissolve, add breadcrumbs and fry until brown. Remove onto paper towel.

Drop pasta, cook until almost al dente.

Cook garlic in EVOO, add clam juice and chopped parsley, reserve clams. Reduce until nearly dry. Add lemon juice, pasta and some pasta water. Add 1/2T butter, peppers and clams. Toss and cook until pasta is done and starchy water creates a creamy consistency.

Plate and garnish with lemon zest, parsley and breadcrumbs.

I’ve been craving shrimp again since Friday’s dinner. Kind of a mish mash of good stuff. Added in some sliced chorizo and spicy salami leftover from the virtual wine dinner last week. It was delicious!
