I feel like that commercial for Beggin’ Strips…

baconbaconbaconbacon…BACON!

It’s a recipe I’ve adapted from Marcus Samuelsson’s brand new book, New American Table….recipe for Pasta, Bacon and Peas at Steamy Kitchen on TLC.

    You had me at bacon. It’s my favorite food group. Cheese comes in 2nd. You made this meal for me, huh?!?

    Yum I’ll have to try that. I love making spaghetti noodles then tossing them with olive oil and mixing in bacon, parmesan, and peas. It takes 10 minutes to make and is so good!

    I was looking at the casarecci pasta at the supermarket the other day… I was wondering how to use them. Now you gave me a great idea! I like the fact that you cooked the egg-sauce for kids. For them, I would lower the amount of bacon but increase the peas. You’d be surprise how young kids love to pick the peas (by hand if possible). It’s a great small motor-skill development recipe! Thanks!

    We always have bacon, frozen peas and pasta on hand and this is often a last minute dinner of ours. I love the type of pasta used here and will have to give that a try…yummy!

    Yum! Pasta and peas was one of my favorites as a kid. Adding bacon to the mix is a stroke of genius.

    Mmm – this would be delicious with some of our newest batch of home cured bacon :-)

    I LOVE this recipe. I had something similar at an authentic Italian restaurant once where they added some lemon zing to it. The lemon is something I would have never thought to add … but damn was it good!

    By the way, classes watched the video that I taped of you on the Today show! It was great. Now they want me to make the dumplings. They were asking what is hangover food? I had to say just never mind!! Don’t want to lose my job.

    Oh! I make something very similar with a brown butter sauce. I was surprised how good it was and I thought my husband would turn his nose up and pasta and peas, but he just about licked his plate!

    how do the egg yolks NOT scramble when you add them to the HOT pan? i just made this dish and the egg mixture scrambled. am i doing something wrong?

      Your heat should be off – and the egg should be poured on top of the pasta, not directly onto pan surface. You can also try to use cold eggs (v.s. room temp) but I’ve never had problem with eggs scrambling.
