Bacon + Corn Pasta Salad
1 pound uncooked pasta shells (about 1 inch long)
4 ounces bacon, chopped
about 2 Tablespoons butter
1/2 cup minced shallots (a combo taste
...is between onion + garlic)
4 cups fresh corn kernels
1 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup chopped fresh tarragon
In a 6 to 8 quart pan over high heat, bring about 4 quarts water to
a boil; add shells and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente,
to package directions.
Meanwhile, in a 10 to 12 inch nonstick frying pan over medium/high
heat, stir bacon until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon,
transfer bacon to paper towels to drain.
Add enough butter to pan to equal about 3 tablespoons fat; when
melted, add shallots and stir until limp, 3 to 5 minutes. Add corn,
wine, and cream; boil, stirring often, for 5 minutes.
Drain shells and return to pan. Stir in corn mixture, bacon, and
tarragon. Pour into a wide serving bowl.
Makes 6 servings.
