Description
There's no other meal that pairs as well with pancetta and the comforting sensation of freshly made tagliatelle. This recipe's simple components serve as proof that simple things done well may be just as enjoyable as sophisticated ones. Tagliatelle is boiled first to give it a lovely al dente texture. Diced pancetta is fried in a skillet until crispy and brown, releasing fat, while the pasta cooks. To infuse the oil and pancetta with the essential scents, chopped garlic is also added to the pan.
