Rigatoni alla gricia with red wine, from Ivo

until December 7

«Here I am, speaking to you from Ivo a Trastevere, the superlative chef Ivo. So, let me explain how the gricia with red wine is made, very simple. It's a twist on the classic gricia. Instead of making it white, we add red wine, let it reduce slightly, and we toss our rigatoni in the red wine so it takes on the color, and then it's plated up, as you can see in the photo. So we're waiting for you here at Ivo a Trastevere. Ah, I love you all! Ah, you're wonderful!»

Perfect carbonara in three simple ingredients

until November 26

«As you know, our superb chef never disappoints, especially at Ivo a Trastevere, so today I'll explain a dish to you. Not that there'd really be any need to explain it, but for anyone still doubting the cooking at Ivo a Trastevere, I'll explain it. A nice carbonara - carbonara is super simple. Three ingredients: guanciale, pasta, egg. Then if you want you can also add pecorino, I forgot the fourth one, well whatever, you'll eat it anyway even without cheese. We brown the guanciale, sauté it with white wine, we get rid of the fat and everything around it, because that takes away the gamey flavor. We cream it in the pan with a bit of water, add the egg, cream it together and you get a carbonara cream that's incredible. At the end we add a bit of pecorino... and there you have it, carbonara. Was I clear? Eh, make do with that... eh!»
