Spaghetti all’Amatriciana

Amatriciana is a Roman staple, but it was born in Amatrice which is a mountainous village that is famous for its gorgeous cured pork products. Good quality guanciale (or cured pork jowl) is what makes this dish truly spectacular. The sauce has a touch of spice from dried Calabrian chilies which adds dimension. The earthy, spicy and cured flavors come together in perfect pasta harmony.
