👨🍳 Procedure

1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta.

2. Meanwhile, add to the mixer:

   • stale bread

   • pistachios

   • parsley

   • a light grating of orange peel

   Blend until you obtain a granular consistency: your aromatic breadcrumbs .

3. Pour extra virgin olive oil into a pan (be generous 😉), add the breadcrumbs and toast them until golden brown.
   As soon as it changes color, set it aside.

4. In the same pan, add the chopped dried tomatoes with a little of their oil and heat gently.

5. Drain the pasta al dente and transfer it to the pan.
   Let them flavor for a few seconds, then add the crunchy breadcrumbs.
