Comments on: Spaghetti with Bread Crumbs and Anchovies http://www.lifesambrosia.com/2010/02/spaghetti-with-bread-crumbs-and-anchovies-recipe.html Exploring my passion for food and cooking one homemade recipe at a time.

Astonishingly, this is the authentic recipe, without any American touches. There is one matter though: Parmesan (in fact Italian Parmigiano Reggiano cheese - all the cheap imitations being totally worthless...) does not suit it. In Sicily it is served without any cheese. If one is really mad about having always cheese with pasta, then one might consider putting some grated Pecorino Romano (again, the real thing, not Wisconsin fakes), which is salty and sharp enough to match the flavours' combination.
