Pasta all'amatriciana is a traditional first course of Lazio cuisine. Originally from the town of Amatrice, this recipe has become famous throughout Italy and the world. The spicy flavor of the jowl and chili pepper perfectly complements the sweetness of the peeled tomatoes and the creaminess of the grated pecorino cheese. A true explosion of flavors!
