Pasta with olives and peppers, Trecce dell'orto alla contandina - Recipe

Image
Trecce dell'orto alla contandina I don't know how it happens, but I always have plenty of pasta on hand. I seem unable to follow the very sensible "use it up before buying new" rule. Now I'm trying to use up the dried pantry goods before year end. So that I can start the New Year with fresh stuff! Ha!Ha! What do I have here? Fattora pasta A package of multi-coloured pasta called Trecce dell'orto. Google translate says it is " Braids of the garden". Don't you just love the poetic names Italians give their pasta?

This is the Czech national dish.  I had it many times in Slovakia as well. As the name indicates, there are three main components to this dish: (1) Vepřo - Roast Pork, (2) Knedlo - Dumpling, and (3) Zelo - Cabbage.  There are many variations to this, but you usually need the following for 4 people: 1 pork roast (traditionally a pork loin joint, but I use a leaner pork sirloin tip roast plus a smoked hock for flavor) 3-4 Tbsp. caraway seeds 2 yellow onions 3 cloves garlic 2 Tbsp. butter Salt and Pepper (have a decent amount on hand) 1 Tbsp. vegetable or canola oil 16 oz. sauerkraut 2 tsp. powdered sugar 3 Tbsp. dry yeast (not a typo, that's really how much yeast you need) 3 cups flour 1 egg 1/2-2/3 cup breadcrumbs (or two dinner rolls) Procedure: Set roast out to thaw for 8-12 hours if frozen Begin preparing roast as outlined in Part I, leave in slow cooker Prepare dough in Part II and leave to rise Prepare cabbage in Part III and leave to simmer Start heating water to boi...
