Spaghetti with Pancetta and Rosemary
This is one of my absolute favorite winter spaghetti dishes! It's absolutely perfect for curling up on a chilly night with some beautiful red wine. Feel free to swap out the pancetta for guanciale or even bacon!

- Sauté the pancetta for about 2-3 minutes and add the wine. Reduce the wine until all the alcohol has evaporated and then add the tomatoes.
