Beneficiary the san mateo county association of realtors® foundation

was created to benefit housing-related causes throughout San Mateo County. The SAMCAR Foundation is a separate 501(c)3 Public Benefit Corporation, funded through the generous contributions of its REALTOR® and Affiliate members, and friends.

Since its inception, the SAMCAR Foundation has focused its charitable efforts towards benefiting organizations and programs that strive to make San Mateo County a more livable, affordable and thriving community. Through its work, the SAMCAR Foundation has made significant financial contributions that have enabled many of our San Mateo County citizens to finance a down payment on their first home, make their mortgage payments, and receive the education needed to make a sound investment in their financial stability and future through homeownership.

Homeownership is said to bring about substantial social benefits for families and communities as a whole. Thus, the SAMCAR Foundation’s primary goal is to help ensure that everyone in San Mateo County is able to achieve the American Dream of owning a home. Our REALTOR® members and Affiliates are proud to contribute to this important and worthy endeavor.

Shrimp Linguine Ingredients 1 lb of fresh Tiger shrimp ½ cup dry white wine 6 cloves garlic, finely chopped sea salt and freshly ground pepper ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil 1 lb of linguine 6 tbsp chopped fresh flat-leaf (Italian) parsley 1 ½ cups canned diced tomatoes

Directions Remove shells from shrimp and rinse thoroughly in cold water. Combine the oil, garlic and half of the parsley in a deep skillet. Turn the heat to medium-low and sauté gently until the garlic is soft but not colored. Add the diced tomatoes to the pan. Let simmer over medium-low heat, uncovered, until they form a fairly thick sauce (about 10 minutes).

Pour in the wine and continue to sauté until the alcohol is evaporated (3 minutes). Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and the shrimp. Stir and cover the shrimp until they begin to curl and turn a pinkish/red color (3 minutes). Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the linguine and a teaspoon of salt and stir at once. Cook over high heat and stir occasionally with a wooden spoon until the pasta is al dente (about 7 minutes). Drain the pasta and add it to the pan with the shrimp sauce. Toss the pasta and sauce together. Serve immediately, sprinkled with the rest of the parsley and some ground pepper.

Spaghetti Carbonara Ingredients ¼ lb thick-cut pancetta or lightly smoked bacon slices 1 tablespoon olive oil 3 large eggs ½ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon pepper 1 lb Spaghetti 3 oz plus Romano

Directions Prepare pancetta Cut it into ¼ inch pieces and saute it in olive oil about 10 minutes. Remove from heat but leave the fat. Beat the eggs in another bowl with salt and pepper. Cook the spaghetti with some olive oil. Cook about 10 minutes.

While spaghetti is cooking, warm up the pancetta.

Drain the pasta and add it to the pancetta pan. Toss it until it is evenly distributed. Add the eggs and toss until it looks creamy. Be sure to toss steadily and quickly so that the eggs form a creamy sauce (not a scramble). It takes about 30 seconds. Remove pan from heat and sprinkle with cheese. Delicious!
