[Guest guest]

Hi Katie, Thanks for taking the time to post this for me. I have all these

ingredients and will make it tonight if I have time. It doesn't look hard at

all. I have walnuts, pine, nuts, almonds, etc.

I'll be sure to give you feedback.

before I fill the email out...............Donna

Dirk's commentary beforehand talks about how nuts can belong to

almost every dish. One of his favorite lunch-restaurants nearby his

office in Köln (Cologne) has a dish similar to this. It's good and

easily variable!

 

1 large onion

2 cloves garlic (in german, they're called garlic toes!)

1 dried peperoncino

2 EL (tbsp) olive oil

butter

200g mixed nuts

400g peeled tomatoes (from a can)

salt

500g rigatoni

pepper

parmesean cheese (fresh) (optional)

 

1. Peel onion and garlic and chop into small cubes. Cut the

peperoncino in half, take the stem and seeds out and chop the pod

into small pieces. Heat olive oil and add onion, garlic, peperoncino

and nuts. Heat.

 

2. Stir under tomatoes with juice and cook the sauce at middle heat

(open) for about 10 min until thickened. Stir.

 

3. While the sauce is cooking, boil a large pot of water with a TL

(tsp) salt, add rigatoni and cook until al dente. Pour noodles into

a bowl.

 

4. Add salt and pepper to the sauce to taste and pour sauce over the

rigatoni. If desired, sprinkle with parmesean cheese.

 

Nut mixes in Germany consist of almonds, pistachios, hazelnuts and

walnuts. But the great thing about this recipe is that it is so

variable-you can change the pasta type or use fresh tomatoes instead

or add spices and I think peanuts might even go well too. Let me

know how you like it!
