WP_008015

 This is yet another super simple pasta recipe that you will make again and again!  What a lovely way to impart your favorite bottle of red wine right into each and every strand of perfectly cooked pasta. Here’s how you do it: simply cook pasta until super al dente and return to a sauté pan along with some cooked, sliced garlic, butter, and dry red wine.  Cook until the pasta has absorbed most of the wine and serve topped with cracked black pepper, freshly chopped parsley and shaved Parmesan or Pecorino  Romano cheese.  Molto bene.
