Boscaiola sauce for pasta

Boscaiola sauce for pasta

Boscaiola sauce for pasta

A kinda old-school pasta sauce (bacon and mushroom with sweet green peas and, hang on, is that a splash of cream?) that reminds us just how simply yummy the classics can be. Toss it through a wide ribbon pasta, dish it up with a salad of bitter greens to complement the creamy sauce and watch it get wolfed down. 

To Serve

This kind of sauce works well with a wider ribbon pasta, like fettucine or pappardelle, but there would be no shame in serving it with a chunky shape like penne or fusilli. A colourful vegetable gnocchi like pumpkin or spinach would also be delicious. Whatever the carb of choice, finish with some extra Parmesan, a good grind of pepper and serve a salad on the side, ideally with some bitter leaves like radicchio or endive into the mix. 

Ingredients

Cream (milk), mushroom (17%), bacon (14%) (pork 97%, salt, mineral salt (450), sodium erythorbate, sodium nitrite, water), onion, peas, water, chicken stock (water, free range chicken bones, onions, carrot, celery and bay leaves), parmesan cheese (milk, salt, cultures, non-animal rennet), olive oil, butter (cream (milk)), dijon mustard (sulphites), garlic, parsley, plain flour (wheat), thyme, salt

    Deliciously just right

    Not too rich, not too smokey, Just enough bacon and just enough mushies. We used two packets for our family of 5 and had a little left over for daddy's lunch.

    Will definitely order again!

    Luscious

    Rich and flavourful, this works well as a soup as well as over pasta.
