How to make it

  • In a large stock pot, boil 3 quarts of water. When boiling, add 2 tablespoons kosher salt to the pasta, and cook until the pasta is al dente.
  • In a large saute pan over medium heat, add bacon and saute until bacon is crispy. Remove bacon to drain on a paper towel-lined plate, and remove 3/4 of the bacon fat from the pan. Add extra-virgin olive oil, onions, and red chili flakes. Cook until onions are translucent, add garlic, cook for 2 minutes then add tomatoes. Saute for 5 minutes, the deglaze with wine.
  • Drain pasta and add to the tomato mixture pan. Add basil and bacon. Toss with Parmesan, and add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Makes 4 - 6 servings

    What a very subtle concoction. just when you think you have it there is another layer. If God's eating this he's not being hard done by. He may not but I will give it a five. Gods are hard to please.

    I could never make this recipe with as much love as you have presented while posting your Bacon And Tomato Pasta and that is why I am back here to copy and print it out again to make in a celebration of our Italian heritage.
