Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Add the pasta and cook for 6 minutes, stirring pasta occasionally, until par-cooked. Drain and reserve the pasta water.

• Stir in the butter and 1 teaspoon salt. Increase the heat, and toss until the wine sauce thickens enough to coat the pasta, about 1 minute. Toss to blend.
• Add the parsley and goat cheese and serve.

Steps:

• 1. Heat oil and pancetta in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat; cook until pancetta is browned and crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer pancetta to paper towel-lined plate. Pour off and discard all but 2 tablespoons rendered fat from skillet. 2. Return skillet to medium-low heat and add garlic and pepper flakes. Cook, stirring frequently, until garlic begins to turn golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Carefully add 1 1/2 cups wine and increase heat to medium-high. Cook until wine is reduced to 1/2 cup, 8 to 10 minutes. Add 1/2t salt. Taste and season with up to 1T sugar if needed. 3. Bring 4 quarts water to boil in large pot. Add pasta and 1 tablespoon salt and cook, stirring often, until pasta is flexible but not fully cooked, about 4 minutes. Remove 2 cups pasta water, then drain pasta. 4. Transfer pasta to skillet with reduced white wine. Place skillet over medium heat; add 1/2 cup unreduced wine and cook. tossing constantly until wine is fully absorbed. Continue to add remaining wine 1/2 cup at a time until pasta is al dente, about eight minutes. Augment with pasta water if necessary. 5. Remove skillet from heat. Place arugula on top of spaghetti; pour 1/4 cup reserved pasta water over arugula, cover, and let stand for one minute. Add cream and 1/4 cup Pecorino Romano; toss until sauce lightly coats pasta and arugula is evenly distributed. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to serving platter and sprinkle with pancetta, remaining 1/4 cup cheese, and pine nuts. Serve immediately, passing extra cheese.

VINO SPIKED SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Heat olive oil over medium heat. Toss in bell peppers, onion, mushrooms, and hot pepper. Add salt and saute until crisp tender. Then add garlic. Cook for only about 2 or 3 more minutes, as garlic burns easily.
• Add ground beef, brown.
• Add sauce, tomatoes, paste, and spaghetti sauce. Blend and cook for five to ten minutes.
• Add herbs. Stir. Add salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle in sugar. Stir. Then add wine.
• Cook over medium low to medium heat for one to two hours, stirring occasionally. This will bubble up and pop out of the pan. So keep an eye on it and adjust the heat if necessary. When sauce is almost ready prepare pasta according to box directions.
• * Dried herbs are stronger than fresh so use less. They also have a different taste, although not as noticeable in this type of recipe. The wine added at the end produces a wonderful background flavor to the dish. This sauce can be kept up to six days in the refrigerator or frozen for three to four months if sealed tightly.
