"For many years now I have been using only bronze-drawn pasta that has a cooking resistance and a consistency that I really like. made creamy not a little cream cheese.
 
I love the Fiocco di Prosciutto for its sweet taste and I use it often as in these sandwiches.
 
INGREDIENTS:
 
320 g of short pasta
About 100 g of Fiocco di Prosciutto  (Il Cortigiano from Salumificio La Rocca)
a dozen dried tomatoes
2 tablespoons of cream cheese
a few strands of fresh chives
extra virgin olive oil to taste
PREPARATION:
 
I cut the slices of prosciutto flake into strips and I lightly browned them in a non-stick pan with a little extra virgin olive oil.
 
I immediately added the previously soaked and squeezed dried tomatoes and browned these too.
 
I also added the cream cheese that I melted with the help of a little pasta cooking water.
 
Meanwhile, I boiled the pasta in plenty of salted water. I drained it al dente and poured it into the pan with the sauce.
 
I jumped everything together for a minute adding more pasta cooking water that I kept the pasta just turned out to be too dry.
 
In the end, the sauce must be soft and creamy.
 
I served and sprinkled each plate with rings of well washed fresh chives and served very hot. "
