Glenfield Marlin 30-30

cold pasta with shrimp

In summer the heat and you want to little time to devote to the stove (it prefers to stay the beach or around) may be useful to be able to prepare various types Cold Pasta. A recipe that I want to encourage (alternative to "cold rice") is this: Spaghetti with prawns .
Ingredients for 4 people: 350 g of spaghetti - 300 g shrimp - 1 bunch arugula - 3 or 4 firm, ripe tomatoes red - to taste oil as needed to flavor the dough - juice of 1 lemon - grated lemon peel - 1 celery stalk - 1 carrot - mixed pepper if you like - a bit 'of chopped parsley.
Preparation: Blanch shrimp (if they are fresh is best, but frozen ones are fine too) in boiling salted water with celery and carrot, and scoliamoli sgusciamoli into the water. After removing celery and carrot, in the same water, scald the tomatoes well washed, and scoliamoli off their skin, seeds and cut into strips. Wash the rocket and tritiamola coarsely. Then cook the pasta in the cooking shrimp and tomatoes, raffreddiamola under running water and put it in a bowl. In the meantime we have prepared the dressing from the oil with the lemon zest, salt and pepper. We have pasta tomatoes, arugula, shrimp, pour the dressing and mix well. Complete the dish with chopped parsley. We keep in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
wine accompaniment: a Franciacorta Brut Champagne or a nice Trebbiano (if you do Tuscany or Marche).
