Pasta Al Baffo

Pasta al Baffo, a classic 1980’s dish from Rome, translates to ‘Mustache Pasta’ which may seem like a strange name, but comes from the saying ’leccarsi i baffi’, which roughly translates to ‘to lick one’s chops’. It’s meant to evoke the feeling you get when you simply can’t wait to try something. The dish lives up to its name because something beautiful and magic happens when you combine prosciutto, tomatoes and cream. Share this recipe with someone who loves creamy pasta dishes!
