Bucatini All'Amatriciana

This is not just a set of obligatory baby-eating-spaghetti pictures.  This is Young Master Connor enjoying Bucatini All'Amatriciana.  I got the recipe from my epicurious app.  We had put aside some plain noodles for Connor but he wanted the real deal.






Bucatini are thick spaghetti noodles that are hollow.  The texture is great and they taste wonderful with lighter sauces.  All'Amatriciana is a preparation with a light, pancetta-infused, spicy tomato sauce.We buy the Giada brand Bucatini from Target which just happens to have a recipe for Bucatini All'Amatriciana on the back.  The exact recipe I used is here.  It's a new favorite and will be making frequent reappearances on our table.

  1. So, I was really impressed with your culinary skills until you stated the recipe was from Target!

    Connor is a real cutie with the red stains and finger-style eating. And, you know, it seems that Connor WOULD take right to "eye"talian food (as Bill calls it) since his Daddy is so good with the Italian lang-goo-widge and all. ;-)

  2. Connor is adorable. Dinner looks delicious. Ben has the same bowls, same cups, and same booster... It's almost eerie sometimes, Emily.
