Trofie chicory and bacon
hell it's been a while!
did not even have a blog, or rather, fortunately maria gave me a beautiful pin quadernino recipes where otherwise I think it would pass another 3 months of inactivity and food bloggers.
I still have not put the title to your post, I can not write that prescription, in recent months many things have changed, Italy coach has changed, maybe I'll change city et universities and especially with the summer edible habits have changed, But everything is about to repeat itself, as the changing of the seasons, in fact, Lippi has returned to guide the national team, I will return to study and returned in the autumn ... (I realize that I'm writing crap, do not worry I'm aware of) lamps,

the recipe that I post today a friend suggested it to me I had not seen for some time, I think it is very tasty and not difficult then to explain it as I've been told, these are:
Trofie with chicory and bacon (light is not it?)
Serves 4 students
Trofie 500 g (or strozzapreti Calabrian macaroni or pasta or similar)
500 grams of chicory Roman (sounds a lot but then you will see that bubble reduces a casino)
300 grams of bacon
a clove of garlic
pecorino romano
black pepper hot pepper
pecorino cheese to taste extra virgin olive oil salt
Preparation:
Clean chicory by cutting the hardest part of the stem (stem is said? mica is a flower, cmq I hope you understand) and put to boil in a large pot filled with salted water (not too salty), when the chicory is tender it will take about half an hour, if it lasts an hour longer, I suggest you calculate a Oretta, that goes wrong put it aside once cooked to perfection, to determine if the chicory is ready we will use the "empirical-experimental" dear Francis Bacon has so well illustrated in his writings (the philosopher not the painter), ie: try it, if you have it still be hard to boil.
When chicory is cooked, drain, chop roughly and place in a dish.
Put the pot on the stove for the pasta with lots of water (the trophic want a lot of water) and boil ready to "drop" trofie.
In a very large frying pan put a little oil, a clove of garlic (if you love garlic, cut into 2 or 4 pieces, if you do not leave it whole and remove them excited at the end of cooking, if you do not use vampires) the chili and bacon cut into thin strips, take care not to put too much oil because the pillow is all fat then smear the pan properly.
When the pillow will add color to the preparation in the chicory and "rehearse" the whole with the aid of a spoon.
Drain the pasta and pour trofie in the pan and continue to mix by adding a bit of black pepper and pecorino cheese at will.
Taste and taste if you like the free ride around without telling the other kids were playing playstation in the other room.
If you have listened to during the preparation of any piece Ardecore (de roma!) The dish will have benefited enough, unless your ears, but it is taste ...
Here, the proxima ...
