Bagna Romano

My anchovy fixation continues and everyone in my home is loving it! This recipe for Bagna Romano couldn’t be any simpler. Pasta, anchovies, garlic and cheese. That’s it! The pasta is so delicious it is a meal in itself!

From: Cooking with Three Ingredients: Flavorful Food, Easy as 1, 2, 3
This sauce runs over with the complex salty fermented richness of oil-cured anchovies and garlic. It is a takeoff on the classic Roman dip bagna cauda, enhanced with Romano cheese.

    I love anchovies. They have a bad reputation, but I think they are lovely. I must try this!

    John – Oh yes do give it a try, I used to be an anchovy hater, but I have seen the light! :D

    Anchovies with anything or everything. A perfect recipe. Your version of this recipe looks pretty idiot-proof so i’ll definately try it!
