Pasta with sea urchins is a typical dish of Italian cuisine, particularly widespread in coastal regions. Fresh sea urchins are opened and used together with their coral to flavor the pasta sauce. The result is a tasty dish rich in marine flavors. In some areas, a pinch of chili pepper is added to give it a touch of heat. Parsley is used as an optional garnish to add a touch of freshness.
Every product available on the marketplace is listed and sold by a partner seller indicated on the product page. The platform acts as a metasearch/marketplace: it facilitates discovery and checkout, but the sale is carried out by the seller, who becomes the party responsible for the transaction.
Shipping is handled directly by the seller partner. The package leaves the seller's warehouse, or its logistics network, and is handed over to the carrier. This model enables more efficient deliveries and ensures that order management is handled by those who actually have the product available.
On the product page you will find ingredients, allergens and nutritional information according to the data provided by the seller or manufacturer, i.e. the official label. If you have allergies or intolerances, we recommend that you carefully check the product page before purchasing and contact the seller with any specific questions.
The platform was created to promote and make Italian food Made in Italy more accessible. We select e-commerce food sellers with coherent catalogs and transparent information. Each product is linked to an identifiable seller and a complete information sheet: we want buying here to mean buying with confidence.
Delivery times and costs depend on the seller and the destination. At checkout you will always find the current delivery estimate before confirming payment. For international shipments, times may vary depending on the country and the carrier.
Take 25 fresh sea urchins, open them, extract the eggs and put them in a glass, avoiding having spines, shell pieces or seagrass fragments get inside
Put plenty of salted water on; cook 200 g of homemade gnocchetti sardi or trofie al dente, which you can also find in the supermarket or, if nothing else is available, Barilla gnocchetti sardi, 'which are good all the same'
4 cloves of garlic, with the green inner part removed and cut into slices, should be lightly sautéed in a glass of extra-virgin olive oil and a pinch of chili pepper (if fresh, it is better) in a pan that will later contain the pasta
Drain the pasta, pour it into the pan and pour the sea urchins over it
Turn on the heat and toss the pasta while stirring it with a large spoon; this operation must be done as quickly as possible to avoid cooking the sea urchin eggs! Keep stirring and sprinkle over a teaspoon or more of grated mullet bottarga (it serves as a binder)
Raw parsley at the end is optional
Eat even before! Ideal wine: Vermentino 'la Cala' by Sella&Mosca (it should be found throughout Italy)
Corkscrew
Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
