Pasta Alla Norcina - The Most Underrated Pasta. Ever.
Pasta alla Norcina might be the best pasta that most people in America haven't heard of. It consists of pan-seared crumbled sausage in a creamy white wine sauce with a touch of nutmeg. Traditionally this dish uses a mild sausage and is finished with black truffles. To keep it economical I instead used a bit of baby Bellas diced up. I hope you enjoy this pasta alla Norcina recipe!

This TOMATO RICOTTA PASTA was my Weekly Pasta Fix when I lived in Italy
Tomato Ricotta Pasta uses passata, basil, and fresh ricotta to create a creamy sauce with a flavour that is surprisingly addictive! If you have some ricotta in the fridge, cook this up instead of a plan tomato sauce. The taste of this dish takes me back to my teenage years and it’s so quick and simple, you can make it up at any time of the day – for one or many!

PRINTABLE RECIPE: ????️ ????️
????????????????????????????????????
✅Ingredients
• 1 pound sweet Italian sausage
• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 1 large white onion minced
• 5 cloves garlic crushed
• 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
• 2 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
• 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
• 1/2 cup white or red wine (can substitute beef broth or chicken broth)
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
• 1 teaspoon fennel seeds
• 1 teaspoon ground oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley divided
• 1 pound lasagna noodles
• 30 ounces ricotta cheese
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 pound deli sliced mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
✅Instructions
1️⃣ 00:14 - In a large pot over medium heat, add in ground sausage and ground beef. Use a spoon to break up the meat into small pieces. Add in onion and garlic and cook until meat is well browned, stirring constantly. Stir in sugar, fresh basil, fennel, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, pepper, and 1/4 cup chopped parsley. Pour in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sauce, and wine. Stir well and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and simmer 1-4 hours, stirring occasionally.
2️⃣ 02:48 - Meanwhile, place lasagna noodles into the bottom of a pan. Pour hot tap water directly over the noodles, making sure the pasta is completely immersed in the water. Let them soak for 30 minutes, then drain and discard water.
3️⃣ 03:19 - In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese with egg, remaining 2 tablespoons parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and nutmeg. Refrigerate until ready to assemble lasagna.
4️⃣ 03:52 - Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a deep 9x13 pan or lasagna dish.
5️⃣ 04:00 - To assemble, spread about 1 cup of meat sauce in the bottom of the prepared pan. Place 4 noodles on top. Spread with 1/3 of the ricotta cheese mixture. Top with 1/4 of mozzarella cheese slices. Spoon 1½ cups meat sauce over mozzarella, then sprinkle with 1/4 cup parmesan cheese. Repeat layering two more times to create three complete layers. To finish, place a final layer of pasta, topped with another 1 cup of meat sauce to cover the pasta. Top with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Cover loosely with aluminum foil.
6️⃣ 05:47 - Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil, and bake an additional 25 minutes to allow cheese to brown. Serve hot.
