Ricetta Irene Bombarda, cozza di Cervia - Ph. Irene Bombarda

Preparation

Stridoli pesto is very easy to make.

Blend all the ingredients together: stridoli, garlic, pine nuts, parmesan, oil.
For the spring sauce, sauté (with a drizzle of oil) the asparagus, stridoli and agretti.

Our friend Irene suggests adding the asparagus tips only the last 5 minutes of cooking.

The protagonist is the Cervia mussel.
Appreciated all over the world (even by starred chefs) thanks to its peculiar organoleptic characteristics of taste and texture.

Just a moment in the pan to let them open and keep all their flavour intact.
Add them to the pasta and stir-fry.

A Trapanese pasta was chosen for this recipe. We are sure it also goes well with a good plate of strozzapreti from Romagna.

Excellent as a hot dish but also tasty as a cold one.
