Instructions
A handful fresh flat-leaf parsley or celery greens, chopped, for garnish
Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the pasta. Salt the water, add the pappardelle, and cook to al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking liquid just before draining the pasta.
Meanwhile, gently heat the pulled pork and braising liquids, in a saucepan over medium heat.
Drain the pasta and return it to the hot pot, and toss with butter, the braised pork, 2 cups braising liquid, lemon juice, and starchy water as needed to produce enough sauce to coat the pasta and give the pappardelle movement. Wilt the arugula greens into the pasta, and season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg, to taste.
Serve in shallow dishes and top with cheese, and parsley.
Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese
Malbec, Pinot Noir, and Sangiovese are great choices for Pulled Pork. Pinot noir's light body is great for lean cuts, medium bodied sangiovese complement meaty sauces, stews, and other multi-ingredient dishes, and full-bodied tannic malbec pairs with fatty cuts and barbecue. The Vinan Alicia Las Compuertas Malbec with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 27 dollars per bottle.
