Pusťme se do vaření
Postup
- Guanciale nakrájej na tenké proužky a opékej na rozpálené pánvi dozlatova a dokřupava.
- Zesil plamen, podlij bílým vínem a uvolni přípečky ze dna pánve. Nech víno zcela odpařit a poté pánev odstav z ohně. Guanciale přendej do misky a dej stranou.
- Do stejné pánve přidej k vypečenému tuku rajčatovou passatu rustica a za jemného míchání vař na mírném plameni. Ochuť špetkou soli a červenou chilli papričkou podle chuti.
- Mezitím ve velkém hrnci přiveď osolenou vodu k varu. Penne uvař tak, aby byly právě al dente, a poté je slij.
- Do omáčky přidej guanciale a poté vmíchej těstoviny, jakmile budou hotové.
- Bohatě posyp předem nastrouhaným sýrem pecorino a dobře promíchej, aby se všechny suroviny spojily.

Naštěstí si nakonec našla cestu do kuchyně. Jinak by se Pasta alla Gricia nikdy neproměnila v legendární Amatriciana. A my bychom se s tebou nemohli podělit o naši vlastní verzi, která ctí tradici a zároveň přidává moderní prvek: penne s pšeničnými klíčky.
If you’ve been following us for a while, you might remember our Pasta alla Gricia—the ancestor and point of origin of one of Italy’s most iconic dishes: Pasta all’Amatriciana. While the classic Gricia won us over with its rich, savory simplicity, Amatriciana brings something extra to the table: that vibrant, irresistible red that only tomatoes can deliver. It’s hard to believe that tomatoes, now a staple of Italian cooking, were once unknown in Europe and used mainly as decoration when they first arrived in the 1500s. In fact, Amatriciana took its time to make an entrance—like any true movie star. And like a movie star, it quickly rose to fame. It’s been featured in films, honored at food festivals, and even earned its own postage stamp in 2008. But despite all the attention, Amatriciana has stayed true to its roots. It’s still a dish for everyone—humble, hearty, and deeply loved. Popular, in short, in every sense.
For our take on Amatriciana, we’ve chosen Penne with wheat germ, a short pasta that’s perfect for soaking up the sauce. But if you’re feeling more traditional, try it with Spaghetti or Pici. Whether you stick to the classics or give it a modern twist, one thing’s for sure: this dish has earned its place in the history of Italian—and world—cuisine.

Ingredients
400 g of Rustica Tomato Passata Emilia Food Love
320 g of Penne with wheat germ Toscana Food Love
150 g of Guanciale (Pork Jawl) Toscana Food Love
80 g of Pecorino Romano DOP Toscana Food Love
50ml of white wine
Red Chili Pepper (to taste)
Salt
Method
-
Cut the guanciale into thin strips and cook it in a hot skillet until it turns golden and crispy.
- Raise the heat and deglaze with the white wine. Let it evaporate completely, then remove the skillet from the heat. Transfer the guanciale to a bowl and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add the rustica tomato passata to the rendered fat and cook over low heat, stirring gently. Season with a pinch of salt and some red chili pepper to taste.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the penne until just al dente, then drain.
-
Add the guanciale to the sauce, then toss in the pasta as soon as it's ready.
-
Sprinkle generously with the pecorino cheese that you will have previously grated and mix well to blend all the ingredients.
Tip
If you prefer long pasta, you can substitute Penne with our Spaghetti with Wheat Germ or Pici Toscana Food Love.
