Ingredients for Creamy Trofie with Speck

1.1 lbs trofie (fresh)
3.5 oz speck
5.6 oz spreadable cheese (like Philadelphia)
1.4 oz walnut kernels
1.4 oz grated Parmesan cheese
3 tbsps extra virgin olive oil
1 pinch pepper
to taste salt

How to prepare the Pasta with Walnuts and Speck

Cook the fresh trofie, or another pasta shape, in salted boiling water. While the pasta is cooking, prepare the sauce.
Pour the extra virgin olive oil into a pan. Add the speck cut into strips and let it sauté over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring often with a wooden spoon.
Add the creamy spreadable cheese to the pan and ladles of the pasta cooking water. Mix well.
Drain the pasta simply with a skimmer and pour it directly into the pan with the sauce.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese, coarsely chopped walnuts, and a pinch of pepper. Mix well and, if needed, add a little more pasta cooking water. Serve the Trofie with Walnuts and Speck still hot.
