Best Salami Noodles Alla Mama Recipes

PASTA A LA MAMA

Steps:

• In a large nonstick, deep-sided saute pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and saute until just starting to get soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the cauliflower and stir well. Cover and lower the heat, letting the cauliflower steam until almost fork-tender, about 5 minutes. Remove the cover; raise the heat to medium to evaporate most of the cooking liquid. Add a splash more olive oil and the garlic and brown over medium-high heat until the cauliflower is crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add the pasta and toss together to combine.
• Add the bread crumbs and cheese and stir well to coat, slightly browning the crumbs, about 2 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add more cheese, if desired. Serve with crusty Italian bread and butter.

PASTA WITH SALAMI

Steps:

• In a saucepan or deep frying pan, heat the oil until just hot. Add the onion and fry gently for 4-5 minutes until soft. Add the salami and garlic and continue to fry for 4-5 minutes until the salami has rendered out its fat.
• Pour in the tomato and 1 cup of water and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and cook gently for 10 minutes. Season with salt & pepper then remove from the heat.
• Cook the penne to the packet instructions in salted water - and when done, drain (retain about a cup of the cooking liquid).
• Toss the pasta through the sauce, adding some of the cooking liquid to keep the dish nice and saucy.
• Serve in bowls with Parmigiano Reggiano sprinkled over.

SALAMI PASTA ALLA GRICIA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 2 cups of the pasta water, then drain the pasta.
• While the pasta cooks, in a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the oil and salami over medium-low. Cook, stirring often, until crisp and golden-brown, 7 to 10 minutes. (Don't be tempted to raise the heat, as you need the fat to fully render from the salami to form the sauce.) Remove from heat and stir in the black pepper until fragrant. Set aside until the pasta's ready.
• Add 1½ cups pasta water to the salami and simmer over medium-low heat, shaking and stirring until the water emulsifies with the fat to create a homogeneous liquid, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Add the cooked pasta and pecorino, and cook, shaking the pot and stirring vigorously until the cheese is melted and the sauce glosses the noodles, 2 to 4 minutes. If the sauce is thin, keep simmering. If you can't see the sauce in the bottom of the pot or on the noodles, add more pasta water and keep stirring over medium-low.
• Serve right away, with more pecorino on top.

SMALL PASTA WITH SALAMI

Steps:

• Bring some water for the pasta to a boil over medium heat and salt it generously. Add the pasta and cook for about 10 minutes or as the package directs.
• Warm a fairly wide, heavy-based saucepan over medium heat. Add the salami strips, not worrying if they clump together. Stir with a wooden spoon for 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir in the tomatoes and add about 1/2 a tomato can of water.
• Stir in 1 tablespoon butter, then add the bouquet garni, if using, and the drained beans. Leave it to bubble away, firmly but gently, while the pasta finishes cooking.
• Just before draining the pasta, remove and reserve a little of the cooking water.
• Stir the drained pasta into the sauce, then remove from the heat, and stir in the remaining butter. If you think the sauce needs it, splash in some of the pasta cooking water, and stir again with a wooden spoon. Leave to stand for 2 minutes before serving, removing the bouquet garni, if used.

SPAGHETTI ALL' ELSA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Salt the water and add pasta. Cook to al dente, with a bite to it.
• Heat a medium sauce pot over medium-low heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil, garlic, and red pepper and let them cook 5 minutes, garlic will be soft and light golden. Remove garlic. Add stock or wine and stir 30 seconds, add tomatoes and combine. Season the sauce with salt, to taste, then stir basil in and reduce heat to low.
• When pasta is cooked, turn off the heat, drain the pasta then add it back to the still-hot, deep pot. Add butter to spaghetti and toss to melt and coat. Add half the red sauce and all of the cheese, work in a handful at a time as you toss to combine. To serve, use tongs or a meat fork to swirl the pasta into buttery, cheesy mounds to pile onto each plate. Top each portion with spoonfuls of remaining sauce. Whoa, Mama!
