Tagliatelle alla Matriciana with Homemade Ketchup

Tagliatelle alla Matriciana with Homemade Ketchup

• This traditional dish originates from Italy, the Lazio region. And they are very happy to eat it all over Italy. The composition of this dish is tomato sauce, pork cheek bacon and pasta. In this recipe, I have used homemade ketchup, which is very tasty and slightly different in color from store-bought. That ketchup is ideal not only for sauces, but also as an addition to soups, stews, goulash and paprikash. You can see that recipe here. In any case, if you don't have ketchup like this at home, you can find it in a store called tomato ragout Barilla. In Italy, it is made mainly from tomato San Marzano, and this what I've used is ketchup from ordinary tomatoes. It is very easy to prepare and ready quickly. Follow recipe.
