Spaghetti with Tuma Persa Cheese and Black Pepper





Introduction

'SPAGHETTI CA TUMA PESSA' An extremely simple recipe, reconsidered and exalted thanks to the unique and intense aroma of tuma persa, one of the most ancient typical Sicilian cheeses, still produced in Sicily by one cheese maker only, who is immensely passionate about his job.

 

 


Ingredients

400 gr of spaghetti pasta; 100 gr of tuma persa cheese; 1/2 glass of extra virgin olive oil; salt and black pepper.


Preparation

Grate the tuma persa by using a grater with big holes and put it in a bowl.
Cook pasta in slightly salted water and, a couple of minutes before draining it, add a sprinkle of just ground black pepper, the oil and a spooful of cooking water. Mix to obtain an homogeneous mixture. Drain the spaghetti and add the dressing sauce.
Mix carefully and serve immediately.

Wine pairings: a Sicilian red wine, as a Nerello Mascalese.
