The Manmade Gourmet: Slinging spaghetti with the Prince of Pasta
Tyler Ryan and Pierce Bowers talk pasta and whip up a delish cream sauce on a Tasty Tuesday
COLUMBIA SC (WOLO) – There is just something comforting about pasta, and Dorsia Pasta Co Founder Pierce Bowers has made that love a business. Each day, Bowers makes pasta, from scratch, and provides it to some of the finest restaurants in the Midlands. Bowers also teaches classes in making pasta, pairings, and all things food, really.
Bowers joined The Manmade Gourmet, Tyler Ryan to whip up a super easy and super tasty Cacio e Pepe Sauce and fresh pasta dish on a Tasty Tuesday.
Bowers says the recipe only has a few items, and can be created very quickly.
Cacio e Pepe sauce:
o Heavy Cream reduced by half
o Lots of grated Pecorino Romano
o Lots of ground Black Pepper
o Pat of Butter
o Pinch of Salt
Tip: Don’t be afraid to go heavy on the pepper, cheese or butter
After you reduce the heavy cream, you add the other ingredients, and you can even add chicken, steak, or shrimp to it. Once the sauce is ready, you take your cooked pasta, and put it into the pan, and allow the entire dish to marry.
The two also discussed the 2023 Columbia Food and Wine Festival, happening April 19 – April 23. According to Bowers, over 150 local restaurants and bars are taking part in the Festival, which started in 2018, over the eight days all across the Midlands. You can learn more about the events HERE.
