Massimiliano Ciregia dell'Osteria del Mare

Procedure:
In a frying pan heat the oil with garlic (whole only crushed, or seen The period of limited social relations we can also afford to break it and make the dish more incisive garlic), the chili pepper depending on your degree of tolerance and a tuft of parsley.
The cicadas are deprived of the head with which we make a little broth that we whisk and sieve. The bodies instead we cut them into pieces in the pan and cook them for a minute.
In plenty of salted water we cook the spaghetti and drain them directly into the pan well al dente.
We cook with a little bit of cicadas broth and work the spaghetti to obtain a nice density of the sauce.
To eat very hot without wasting too much time in improbable implants, the eye wants its share but the taste claims its sacred rights!
