Zubereitung von Pumpkin Bacon Pasta Sauce
- Cook pasta according to package directions. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
- While pasta cooks, fry the diced bacon in a large pan over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, reserving bacon grease in the pan.
- Add the chopped onion to the bacon grease and cook until softened and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.
- Pour in the white wine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let the wine reduce slightly, about 1 minute.
- Stir in the pumpkin puree, chicken or vegetable stock, heavy cream, and nutmeg. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in the reserved bacon and half of the Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add a little pasta water if the sauce is too thick.
- Toss the cooked pasta with the sauce. Add more pasta water if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Serve immediately, sprinkled with fresh parsley and extra Parmesan cheese.
