Spaghetti With Lobster Pomodoro Recipes

SPAGHETTI WITH LOBSTER POMODORO

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Working one at a time, cook lobsters 3 minutes, then transfer to a large bowl of ice water. Let cool just until you can comfortably handle them, about 1 minute, then twist off claws where the knuckles meet the body and return them to pot of boiling water. Cook 2 minutes (leave bodies in ice water). Add claws back to ice water and let both claws and bodies cool completely. (The lobsters are intentionally undercooked at this point but will finish cooking in the sauce.)
• Remove bodies and claws from ice water. Twist tails off bodies with your hands; discard heads (you won't get enough meat to make it worth your time). Working with 1 tail at a time, place on a cutting board and, using a chef's knife or cleaver, cut lengthwise all the way through tail in one motion. You should now have 2 even halves. Remove any tomalley or eggs from tails and discard. Remove meat from shells; discard shells. Using the back of a cleaver or a lobster cracker, crack claws on all sides and pick out meat; discard shells. Cut tail and claw meat into bite-size pieces. Place in an airtight container; cover and chill until ready to use.
• Heat oil and ghee in a large skillet over medium. As soon as ghee is melted, add onion and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is very soft, about 5 minutes. Add basil and as soon as it is wilted, add the tomatoes, crushing well with your hands as you go. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook sauce until thick and flavors have melded, 20-25 minutes. Season sauce with salt and pluck out basil.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in another large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until very al dente (about 1 minute less than package directions).
• Using tongs, transfer pasta to skillet with sauce, then add nduja and a splash of pasta cooking liquid and reduce heat to medium-low (high heat can cause the sauce to break). Cook, tossing gently and adding splashes of pasta cooking liquid as needed to get sauce to cling tightly to pasta, until sauce and nduja are combined, about 1 minute. Taste and season pasta with salt if needed.
• Add chilled lobster meat to pasta and cook, tossing gently, just until lobster meat is warmed all the way through, about 2 minutes.
• Divide pasta among bowls and top with tarragon and parsley leaves.
• Lobster can be cooked 1 day ahead; keep chilled. Tomato sauce can be made 3 days ahead. Let cool; cover and chill. Reheat over medium before using.

• Season with 1 tablespoon salt and some pepper. Add stock and lobster tails. Cook for 30 minutes. Transfer lobster tails to a plate; let cool slightly. Remove meat from shells; cut in half lengthwise. Discard shells, and return meat to sauce.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti until al dente. Drain, and transfer to a platter. Stir basil into sauce, ladle over pasta, and toss.

• After 45 minutes, or when the vegetables are tender, remove the sauce from the heat and let rest for 15 minutes.
• While the sauce is simmering, fill another large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add salt, if desired. Cook the spaghetti until al dente. Drain and rinse the pasta with lukewarm water to prevent sticking.
• Taste the sauce and add salt, if desired. Serve pasta topped generously with sauce, grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and the reserved sliced basil leaves.

SPAGHETTI WITH POMODORO SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Cut a thin slice from the stem end of the tomatoes and score the other end by cutting a small "x." Place the tomatoes in a small bowl, toss with enough olive to coat and season lightly with salt and pepper. Stand the tomatoes up on their cut sides in a baking dish and place in the oven to cook until the skins are lightly blistered, about 6 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, set up a pasta roller attachment on a stand mixer (or secure a hand roller to the side of your work surface) and set it on the widest setting. Lightly dust a baking sheet and work surface with semolina and roll out your dough with a rolling pin until it is thin enough to pass through the pasta roller. Turn on the pasta roller and pass the dough through once, then fold in half, dust with semolina flour, and put through the roller again. Keep dusting lightly with semolina flour as needed if the dough seems sticky or damp. Go the next setting and pass the pasta through the roller (without folding). Go to the third setting and repeat. Go to the fourth setting and repeat (you will have rolled the dough to a medium thickness; it should not be translucent).
• Once the pasta is rolled, cut the long sheet into 10- to 12-inch sections, stacking them on top of each other with a dusting of semolina in between. (You should end up with 4 or 5 sections.) To cut by hand, fold each sheet in half, then in half again. With either of the folded ends facing you, cut very thin slices to achieve a thin noodle. To cut with the pasta machine, use the spaghetti roller attachment and put each section of rolled dough through the machine one at a time. Put the cut spaghetti on the prepared baking sheet; toss to coat with semolina and roll into 4 to 5 nests. Each nest is about one serving.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a rapid boil.
• Remove the skins from the tomatoes with your hands or a paring knife (if they have been properly roasted the skin should lift easily). Squeeze out the juice and seeds, then break up what is left of the tomato flesh with your hands and transfer to a bowl.
• Put the oil, garlic and chiles in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic cloves are lightly browned, about 1 minute; add the tomatoes and any juice that has accumulated in the bowl. Season with salt and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and hold for the pasta.
• Drop the pasta into the boiling water and stir immediately. Leave the pasta to cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer the cooked pasta to the pan with the sauce; toss and simmer until well combined. Add the basil and Parmesan and toss well. Serve, drizzle with olive oil and more Parmesan.
• Mound the flour in the center of a clean countertop or cutting board. Make a well in the center of the flour 3 to 4 inches wide.
• Crack the eggs into the well and add a pinch of salt. Using a fork, break the yolks and begin to beat the eggs as you would if making scrambled eggs.
• Continue stirring the eggs with a fork in large circles, slowly incorporating the flour. When the eggs form a thick mass and become difficult to stir, about 3 minutes, fold the loose flour from the edges into the pile with a bench scraper and knead until a smooth dough forms. Discard any excess flour.
• Shape the dough into a flat disk, wrap tightly with plastic wrap and set aside to rest for 20 minutes before rolling. If waiting more than 1 hour, refrigerate or freeze the dough. The dough will keep refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
