Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Hot oil. Never put water on an oil fire: turn off the heat and cover the pan with a lid or a damp tea towel. Pat food dry before it goes into hot oil, and lower it in gently, away from you.
  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. **Garganelli con Radicchio, Pancetta e Aceto Balsamico** [NOTE: Garganelli is a difficult-to-prepare fresh pasta. For instructions consult a pasta cookbook. Otherwise, substitute dried penne or farfalle.]
  2. 1. Bring 3 quarts water to a boil in a large pot. Add salt, then the dried pasta. Cook till "al dente" (8-10 min.).
  3. 2. Meanwhile, in a skillet, heat the olive oil with the shallots and pancetta until the shallots have softened and pancetta begins to crisp. Add radicchio and saute' until it wilts.
  4. 3. Scrape contents of skillet into a bowl. Toss to combine ingredients, season with salt and pepper to taste and serve. From Chicago Tibune Magazine, May 2, 1993 recipes provided by Marta Pulini, chef of Le Madri (New York City)
