Orecchiettes with red pesto

You know that we love pasta, and much more if it is fresh pasta, as is the case today with these orecchiettes. We have prepared them with pesto rosso, less common than green but just as rich, do you dare to try them?☺

Ingredients for 2 servings:

- 8.9 oz of orecchiettes

- 12 dried tomatoes

- 2.11 oz of olive oil

- 0.88 oz of pine nuts

- 1/2 clove of garlic

- 1 oz of Parmesan cheese

- 2 anchovies

- Ground black pepper

- Salt

Recipe:

- In a bowl with hot water, hydrate dried tomatoes for 30 minutes.

- In a large pot with boiling water and a pinch of salt, cook the orecchiettes for 16 minutes.

- Meanwhile, prepare red pesto by introducing in a glass suitable for blender: dried hydrated tomatoes, oil, pine nuts, garlic, anchovies, Parmesan and a little ground black pepper.

- Beat well until all the ingredients are integrated and a thick sauce forms.

- Add a little water from the pasta cooking to lighten the sauce until it is to your liking.

- Drain the orecchiettes and mix them with the sauce.

- Serve immediately.

Bon appétit!
