This recipe for pasta with mortadella, pistachios and cognac I fell in love from the first time I tried it. A fall day that rained and who wanted a small house.

Comes a time of year that I love. Autumn makes us to take greater account of the hours of sunshine, we change the wardrobe and we poblemos those warm sweaters of wool in the drawers, we get carpets and rugs and my house has a warm tone that I love. At this time back to be a pleasure to spend an evening on the couch watching a good movie, and having spent many afternoons at the beach or in the garden comes to enjoy the House.

Speaking of home, recently I discovered www.westwing.esa web of decoration, furniture, plants, books in which to buy and see many decorating ideas sorted in function of the style, the room you want to decorate or furniture that you are looking for. I loved it because its very current image and its fantastic pictures so I'm you if you wish to take a look.

Back to the recipe, I must admit that the mortadella of Bologna is my favorite without a doubt, and is on my shopping list normally because I love. In this recipe I would add it cut into strips very thin, as in threads that are confused with the pasta so that always falls a good part in the fork to the take it to the mouth.

To add a crisp touch, I add a few chopped pistachios that accompany the mortadella taste very well, and to give pleasure to my family, put also some peppers for a spicy touch. Cognac and Basil make the rest in this dish of purely Italian pasta where the flavors are pure and blend very well. Buon appetito!
