Pasta with pineapple wine from Adams, Ilocos Norte

Today I made a pasta dish with pineapple wine.

Ingredients:

1. 200 grams linguine pasta
2. 6 pieces medium size prawns (sugpo), cooked
3. 1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano
4. 1/2 teaspoon of dried rosemary
5. 2 dried birds eye chili (siling labuyo)
6. 2 tablespoon of margarine
7. 1/2 cup pineapple wine

Cooking instructions:

1. Cook pasta linguine according to instruction
2. After the excess water is drained, pour in the pineapple wine.
3. When the wine is partially absorbed by the pasta, toss in prawns, dried oregano and dried rosemary.
4. Add the margarine and chopped chili.
5. Stir for 2-3 minutes and serve.


In this pasta, I used pineapple wine from the Municipality of Adam, Ilocos Norte. They make great tasting wines and also it is one way of supporting and promoting local industry. I also replaced conventional butter to locally available margarine it has a very distinct flavor and it combines well with prawns and herbs too.
