@sad_papi: They look like grubs 😛 ricotta cavatelli with sausage and broccolini Cavatelli: 400g ricotta-drained overnight 400 g 00 flour (or all purpose) 1 egg yolk Hefty pinch salt Whisk together your egg yolk and ricotta with a pinch of salt. Add the flour and start working it together until you have a shaggy dough then turn it out and begin kneading. After about 5 minutes and your dough is cohesive, cover it up and let it rest for an hour. Roll it out about 1/2” thick then cut it into strips. Roll those strips into logs then cut out your little pillows. Shape by using something flat like a bench scraper or the side of your thumb and drag on a flat surface. Or pasta paddle. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and drop them in. Cook for 30 seconds after they begin to float. So about a minute total. Cool and lightly toss in olive oil to prevent them from sticking to each other. At this point you can portion them up in an air tight container and freeze them for about a month or two. To reheat you can drop them in boiling water for a minute or drop them right into a sauce. Pasta: Italian sausage Garlic Broccolini Splash white wine Parmesan Chopped parsley Blanch your broccolini by dunking it in boiling water for 1 minute then immediately plunging into ice water. Dry well. Next I take the really long stems and just slice them up and leave the florets intact. Preheat pan over medium low heat and add the sausage. Once the sausage is browned on one side give it a toss and brown the other side. Add the sliced garlic, broccolini, and stems. Sauté all together for 2 minutes and add the chili flakes. Deglaze with a splash of wine. Once it’s almost dry, add the pasta with a splash of pasta water or stock. Add a handful of Parmesan and toss together. Taste for salt. Finish with chopped parsley and serve
