Orecchiette with Sausage and Spinach Delight This comforting dish combines the heartiness of Italian sausage with the freshness of spinach, all wrapped in tender orecchiette pasta. Perfect for a weeknight dinner or a cozy gathering. Ingredients 8 ounces uncooked orecchiette pasta 16 ounces Italian sausage 1/2 medium onion, chopped 4 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1/2 cup dry white wine 3 cups (packed) fresh baby spinach 2 tablespoons fresh basil (optional) Salt & pepper to taste For serving: freshly grated parmesan cheese (optional, to taste) Instructions 1. Boil a large salted pot of water and cook the pasta al dente according to package directions. 2. In a skillet, add the sausage meat and onion, and sauté over medium-high heat for 8-10 minutes until cooked through and nicely browned. If there's more than 1-2 tablespoons of fat remaining, spoon out the excess, but leave some for flavor. 3. Reduce the heat to medium, then stir in the garlic and Dijon mustard, cooking for about 30 seconds. 4. Pour in the wine and let it cook until reduced by half, approximately 1-2 minutes. 5. Add the spinach and basil (if using), tossing with tongs or large spoons until the spinach wilts. Then, add the drained pasta and toss again to combine. 6. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately, topped with freshly grated parmesan cheese if desired.

Chiudo gli occhi e volo in Puglia

I Trulli

E poi il Salento

Lu ientu.🌪️

Arrivo a Lecce il colore del tufo pugliese si scontra l'azzurro del cielo, ricordo la festa di Sant'Oronzo ad agosto, tutti quegli addobbi, quelle Luci.

La pizzica ballata nelle piazze

Il pasticciotto a colazione

The Orecchiette Ladies of Bari, Italy

"Bari Vecchia, ‘old Bari’ is a small ancient part of the larger city, medieval in fact, with mazes of jumbled streets twisting and turning and laundry hanging from balconies wherever you turn.

It is within these charming walls, behind the Basilica di San Nicola, down two tiny covered alleyways, you find local women lining the streets hand making authentic orecchiette pasta.  Rustic wooden work tables, dusted in semolina, spill out onto the street, while doors to their houses are left wide open so you can peer into their houses as you pass by."

I love this so much

Hot Pasta alla Vodka (Vegetarian)

This spicy, creamy and warming Hot Pasta alla Vodka makes a deliciously comforting lunch, especially when you've caught a bit of a chill! Happy Tuesday!

Ingredients (serves 2):

2 cups short pasta (like orecchiette)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 large onion

1/3 red chili pepper

a generous bunch Garden Parsley 

3 large Whole Peeled Tomatoes+ 1/3 cup of their juice

1 tablespoon Hot Pepper Sauce 

a pinch of fleur de sel or sea salt flakes and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

5 tablespoons good quality Vodka

½ tablespoon caster sugar

half a dozen large leaves Garden Basil

½ cup double cream

Parmesan Cheese

In a pot of salted boiling water, cook orecchiette according to package’s direction, usually 9 to 11 minutes until al dente.

While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a large, deep, nonstick skillet over medium heat. 

Finely chop the onion and stir into the skillet. Cook, a couple of minutes until softened.

Thinly slice red chili pepper, and add to the skillet; cook, 1 minute more. 

Finely chop Parsley, and stir into the skillet as well.

Roughly chop Whole Peeled Tomatoes, and stir them into the skillet, along with their juice. Increase heat to medium-high, and simmer, 4 minutes, stirring often. Stir in Hot Pepper Sauce. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste. Then, stir in Vodka and caster sugar. 

Finely chop Basil, and stir half into the sauce. Simmer, a couple of minutes more, then add double cream.  Allow to reduce and thicken a little, 2 minutes.

Then, drain orecchiette, saving 1/3 cup of its starchy water. Stir both into the skillet, coating the pasta in sauce. Grate in about ¼ cup Parmesan. Give a gentle stir until the sauce beautifully coats the pasta.

Serve Hot Pasta alla Vodka, sprinkled with remaining fresh Basil, topped with freshly grated Parmesan, hot, with a glass of chilled dry white wine, like a light and citrus-y Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc.

RAI images of Jerry's arrival in Bari on January 4, 1984 for the Apulian leg of his Italian tour. Ten dates throughout Italy. Jerry was expected in 1983 but the bad heart attack he had blocked him from the USA. And as you can see just a year later it was already in full swing even on another continent❤️

The RAI journalist recounts that as soon as he got off the plane Jerry was offered a dish of "orecchiette" typical Apulian pasta still handmade today (and sold) by elderly women in the historic center of the city. Who knows... maybe he ate a really nice plate of Apulian "orecchiette con le cime di rapa" at the hotel. I attach a photo of this simple but delicious recipe 😋

ヴィーガンについて暫し語らう。 オレッキエッテをちねりながら。 本当にアレルギー的な感じで摂り入れる事が出来ない人を除き、95%の人たちは"思想ヴィーガン"である。 過激派の多いジャンルの一つだが、明確に言えるのは、彼らの多くが土を触らず、野菜を消費する側でしかないこと、自己正当化と他を攻撃していく様は、とても健康的ではないということ。 ガチのヴィーガンと違い、遺伝子組み換え豆のソイミートに執着心を残す人もいる。それ、もう、肉食べたら？　っていう… 大豆ミートの様な気持ち悪いものは遺伝子組み換えでもOKって凄まじい。 まるで… 新世代の宗教。 どことなく流れる周波数も"訊いてはいけない宗派"の様な雰囲気を醸し出す。 "踏み絵"がある領域。 だから、いつも俺はハッキリ言う。 彼らが何と驚こうと、きちんとした生産もあるし、自分は肉を食べると。魚も好きだと。 オーガニックファームがそんな事言うなんて！　…何度聞いただろうか… 😩 肉は悪ではない。 人類の文明の一つである。 善悪論は幼稚だよ　笑 もうその思考回路すら失っているのであれば、既に健康優良ではない。 違いますのん？ #orecchiette #オレッキエッテ #vegan #ヴィーガン #思想ヴィーガン #善悪論 #幼稚 (Ome Farm Kitchen) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmOO5jOSWJN2nZA4302XaWzx95b5Ri0AFlvAZ80/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
