- Days after my first foray into One Dish Pasta, I was keen on
- creating a dish featuring one of my favorite of all pastas. Orecchiette means
- ‘little ear’ in Italian. If you make
- your own, you would use your thumb to create the little bowl that characterizes
- the pasta. The advantage of their shape
- is that these bowls are excellent for catching the sauce in so, unlike
- spaghetti or fettucine, they actually hold the sauce rather than just being
- coated with it. The recipe varies from
- the first One Dish Pasta in that the sausage and onion is cooked in the dish
- for about 15 minutes before the Orechiette is added. The cooking liquid is not water this time,
- it’s chicken stock and it’s added in as needed.
- Finally, once the pasta is cooked, the arugula is mixed in and wilts
- into the mixture. I chose to add Burrata
- to the finished pasta bowls. This may be
- too rich for your recent college grad, but if he or she wants to impress, this
- meltingly creamy cheese will do the trick. If budgetary concerns overrule the
- Burrata, a handful of Parmigiano will stand in perfectly well. Here are the recipes:
