Tonight my daughter asked me to make pasta Arrabiata
5 cloves of garlic
28 oz can of diced tomato
28 oz can of tomato puree
1/2 cup of fresh basil sliced
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp dried oregano
2 tbls crushed red pepper flakes
16 ounce of penne pasta
1/2 cup Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
Peel and mince garlic and saute' in EVOO over med/hi heat until clear then add in all the ingredients in red and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 20 minutes stiiing ocsionally.
1. While the gravy is simmering boil water and cook pasta per the directions. Remember aldente' pasta is what you want.
2. After the pasta is cooked reserve a ladle of the pasta water.
3. Pour drained pasta back into pot and add in the reserved water and 1/2 cup of Parm-Reg cheese and stir.
4. Then add in a few ladles of the red gravy and toss to coat the pasta.
5. Put pasta in serving platter and the rest of the gravy in a bowl for folks to add as they see fit.
6. Garnish with a bit more fresh sliced basil and Parm-Reg cheese.
As an added bonus tonight I am also making homemade Naan bread.
2 tsp yeast
1/4 cup warm water
1 tbls sugar
4 cups flour
1 tsp salt
3/4 cup warm milk
3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
1. Mix yeast, sugar ns water together and set aside until it foams up (about 10 minutes)
2. In a separate bowl add in flour and salt then whisk together
3. In a separate bowl add the warm milk, yogurt and rehydrated yeast together then whisk together.
4. Slowly combine the liquid into the flour and stir then knead until a nice dough forms. I used the Kitchen Aid mixer with a dough hook and it took about 10 minutes.
5. After dough has formed place in a lightly oil bowl and cover for around an hour to rise.
6. After dough is risen remove from bowl an knead again on a floured surface for a couple more minutes. Then divide in 8 equal balls.
7. Roll out each ball until its about 1/4" thick
8. Heat a skillet over med-high heat. While the skillet is heating melt a stick of butter in a cup.
9. Brush one side of the Naan with butter nd place butter side down in the skillet and then brush top with butter. Cook for about two (2) minutes and you will see it start to bubble. Flip over and cook 2 more minutes. Bread should be golden brown
10. Put on a plate and cover with a towel while you cook the rest of the breads. To keep warm.

Luckily, while I was reading that, I was eating a leftover slice of one of the best Lasagnes I've ever made, so I didn't have to jump up and find something to eat.
And not that I want to turn WildGuzzi into a Pinterest-style recipe-sharing/scrapbooking site, BUT as long as we're on the subject :food: , I've been trying for years to duplicate (or get close to) the recipe for the "Chicago-Style" (or so they say) "Deep Dish Pizza" as served at "MJ Pippins" near 10th and Peachtree in downtown Atlanta in the late 70s and early 80s. It was served in 2" deep beat-up 12" heavy iron pans at the table, the crust was thick and chewy, and it was overall a fantastic dish, in a whole different class from your normal hand-tossed style pizza. Maybe someone knows ... ?

I love penne arrabbiata but I've never made it. I would think it had more than 2 tblsp of pepper in it, though.

YIKES!!!
Are the roads fairly clean @ your end? You've gotten me ready to saddle up and make a run for it. I'm guessing ~430 door to door.
I recall the days when I'd do it in a NY minute. Enjoy.
Thank you for the timely recipes. I grocery shop on Mondays.
Good fortune to you and yours, R3~

A member on another site is sending me some chocolate habanero seeds. If the crop turns out I’ll make more jelly.

Super! She didn't make the bread but the pasta dish was excellent. She also heated it up a bit with some of these bad boys. Thank's for the recipe.
