  • Crunchy, savoury, sweet and delicious - everyone will like Teresa's recipe. The most challenging part is getting hold of dried Senise red peppers, but the internet is your friend. Use unsmoked sweet paprika if you cannot find the Italian 'peperoni in polvere'. This is an incidentally vegan recipe.
    For the pasta: 500g semola rimacinata, 1 tablespoon of oil, 250ml water.
    For the topping: 300g breadcrumbs, garlic, parsley, 2 teaspoons of ground sweet red pepper, 20g whole red peppers for frying (optional), olive oil
    With thanks to the ProLoco of Senise, and to pepper producer Giuseppe Pennella

    Ancho peppers are a good substitute for the fried peppers.
    Gochugaru (Korean red pepper powder) is a good substitute for the pepper powder here.
    This was an amazing pasta - I added garlic roasted cherry tomatoes
    Thank you for sharing this.
    The seasoned breadcrumbs are also excellent on salad.

    Been watching these videos for a while, and have never made fresh pasta before.....so outta knowhere tonight at 11pm i decided to give it a go! Using what I had to try and do something similar. Ended up with Pappardelle (I might have intended to do tagliatelle but I cut it a bit wide) Little bit thick (but im guessing more resting time would mean less shrinkage while rolling?) and while the water was heating in a pan, put some ghee (didnt have olive oil or butter at the moment) with some garlic, paprika and some chilli flakes. Really proud of my little bowl of pasta, really surprised myself with how nice it was, and easy! Seems like something that's easy to get in to, but with lots and lots and lots of room to improve over time! Anyway, just wanted to throw out a thank you (Grazie) for inspiring me!

    • @pastagrannies
      @pastagrannies  4 місяці тому +2

      Well done! Yes, making pasta is very easy. How long to rest the dough depends on the type of flour you used. With plain/00 flour, a good rest of an hour or so makes it easier to roll (it doesn't bounce back) so you are more likely to roll it thin enough. Semola rimacinata, as long as you haven't done lots of kneading, doesn't need a rest, and you can roll it out immediately. Have fun! 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky

    Breadcrumbs... as the Italians say, poor man's cheese. My family is from Calabria, which is next door to Basilicata, and peppers are also a major part of their cooking tradition. You've been in some of the Arbereshe areas, where my paternal grandparents were from, and the word for that same kind of pasta is fileja. The pepper mixed into the breadcrumbs is new to me, though but it looks great. Sometimes I've been able to find that sweet pepper powder but it's pretty difficult to find in the USA, even online, but it's very worth the effort.

      @@pastagrannies Report! Getting the breadcrumbs to the right texture wasn't an issue (probably thanks to my using an iron skillet that you have to wait to get up to heat but then cooks extremely evenly) but the slug of pepper-frying oil at the end - or at least some olive oil to simulate the same - is a necessary addition, else it's too dry. Good stuff, though - can certainly vouch for the real thing since the approximation turned out that well!

    If you stay South Vicki, I suggest a small town in South Italy, in the mountains of the Province of Salerno, called Monte San Giacomo, where my ancestors and late parents and Nonna made an artisanal dish and still do and have a sagra devoted to it: Patan e Cicc. The place is about 2 hours I think south of Naples, the biggest known city would be Sala Consilina. But from the map you show in the beginning, you weren't that far. I think you were more inland but in line with us. We are in the area called Vallo di Diano. There are many family variations but is handed down and those of us with ancestry from there, still make it here in the USA (NJ / Hoboken areas and around there) Let me know. I'll recommend some people! oh and we use long hot peppers fried, when we make this in the states but peperoni cruschi are used there along with the polvere. My Nonna and father made our version super spicy with hot polvere.

      Point of reference, you say "Lucanian" but the upper 3rd of Calabria, falls under this "guise"...
      My people are from San Giovanni in Fiore, in La Sila region of Calabria.
      Mountain people, Brutti descendants of Lucanians settled the area.
      We speak the most southern version of Neopolitaniano dialect, and this recipe is definitely in the repitorie of many northern calabrians, who also come into contact with the Abaresh Communites in the area. My Great -Grandmoms maiden name is Gurascio, Abaresh name....and they most certainly use the peppers like this.
      All Calabrians arnt the same! Lol

      @@JeromeDeCaine I know what you're saying, but I'm referring to modern Lucanians, not the ancient ones (which were a big tribe and lived also in Cilento, nowadays Campania). "Lucano" in Italian and "Lucanian" in English are the ethnonimes given to the people of modern day Basilicata, since there's no adjective that can be made like "Basilicatese" or anything like that. The recipe is known and made roughly in all of Basilicata, a bit of northern Calabria, Cilento (in Campania) and some parts of Apulia, but it's still a Lucanian dish made with peppers that have been recognized as "protected geographical indication" since they grow specifically in 5-6 (if I remember correctly) towns in the province of Potenza. There are many bell pepper variants in Italy but that specific kind doesn't grow anywhere else so I'd say the recipe is Lucanian.

I ask because you said it took some time to knead the dough and then when she unwrapped it, it was wrapped in plastic and a towel. I know things must be changed for editing purposes sometimes, but it appeared that she was having some difficulty needing it as if she hadn’t made that kind of pasta in a long time. Thank you.
