Orecchiette


Orecchiete means ears in Italian. They're pasta shells that look like little ears and I love them. I found this version at Mario's Deli in Glendale. They're "grandi" so they're a little bigger than the usual. I used them for a marinara pasta and they're perfect when they're cooked al dente. We topped it with Italian parsley and shaved parmesean cheese, a garlic baguette on the side and a glass of red wine (my first glass in months!) What a great way to end the day.
