Those who know me, or for instance follow this blog, know that I’m a pasta person. That is a fact. I could eat pasta every day of my life. I like to think that I have an Italian guy living in my tummy. Or maybe in a past life I was an Italian girl. Truth to be told: I love pasta in every shape and color!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With that said, today I\u2019m going to share a recipe that is a staple in my kitchen: Penne all\u2019arrabbiata, <\/em>also known as penne arrabbiata<\/em>, which literally means “angry penne” because this is a really spicy, hot dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About the arrabbiata sauce recipe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now, a few words about this tasty and spicy\u00a0arrabbiata<\/em> sauce. It brings memories of my hometown Caracas, in Venezuela. There, we used to have the best Italian food. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was possible thanks to the huge Italian community founded by those hard-working immigrants who came to this side of the world running away from the horrors of World War II. They settled down there, prospered and showed us why Italian food is the best food in the world.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had penne\u00a0all’arrabbiata<\/em> for the first time at Da Guido. This was a non-pretentious Italian restaurant in Caracas, where my love affair with Italian food started. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Penne all’arrabbiat<\/em>a recipe originated in Lazio, the central Italian region which capital is Rome. It seems like they didn’t use any cheese. But I cannot help and instead of the much more popular Parmiggiano, I added some Pecorino Romano, not only for the obvious reason but also because I love its sharp, tangy flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Cook Perfect Penne all’arrabbiata<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"penne<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The arrabbiata sauce making is the easiest process ever. You saut\u00e9 garlic and red pepper flakes in olive oil. Then, infuse the oil with fresh parsley. This means you not only sprinkle fresh parley to the plated dish but add it to flavor to the sugo<\/em>, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rest is adding the tomato sauce and some of the water in which the pasta is cooked al dente. Finally, you add the cooked penne to the sauce, stir and serve with more parley… and grated pecorino cheese!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
