Pasta alla Mugnaia con Broccoli e Acciughe
Calabria — Calabria interna
Calabria's pasta with broccoli and anchovies in the style of the mulino (mill) — a preparation from the Calabrian interior where the miller's wife (mugnaia) would cook pasta with the vegetables available and the preserved fish from the coast. Orecchiette or rigatoni with Calabrian broccoli (a darker, more bitter variety than northern Italian) sautéed with desalted anchovies in olive oil until the anchovies dissolve into the broccoli oil, finished with dried chilli, garlic, and breadcrumbs.
