Pici all'aglione is a delicious Tuscan pasta dish that combines the flavors and traditions of Italian cuisine. The basic recipe consists of a delicious sauce made from the special Aglione garlic and tomatoes, which has a slightly spicy note. The hand-rolled pici pasta, which is typical of Tuscany, soaks up the sauce perfectly and offers you a unique taste experience. This dish is easy to make and offers the real taste of Tuscany, which will delight both garlic lovers and pasta lovers alike.
First peel the garlic, then cut it into pieces and put it in a blender. Add a good dash of olive oil and some coarse sea salt. Then blend thoroughly until a smooth cream is formed.
Now heat some olive oil in a pan, add the cream and sweat gently on low heat for about 10 minutes. Stir frequently during this process.
Put the peeled tomatoes in a bowl and mash them lightly with a fork. Finely chop the chili peppers. Then add both to the cream, season with black pepper and simmer for 20 minutes on low heat with the lid closed.
Bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil and cook the pici in it until al dente.
Drain the finished pasta directly into the pan and mix everything well.
Finally, place on deep plates and enjoy immediately!Buon appetito!
