Pasta With Ricotta Cheese Sauce Recipe 385
CREAMY RICOTTA PASTA SAUCE
A simple marriage of ricotta cheese, egg, and a secret ingredient make for a sauce that's even creamier than those that use heavy cream, which can be a bit too rich and filling. I mean, come on, I'm trying to save room for the tiramisu. Ricotta gives this sauce a cheesy tanginess that we don't get with heavy cream. I love to top this pasta with lots of ricotta salata, a great summer cheese.

Steps:
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Cook orecchiette according to package directions, reducing time by 1 minute, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine ricotta cheese, egg, salt, pepper, lemon zest, and cayenne pepper in a bowl. Mix until a paste forms. Add 1/3 cup hot pasta water and whisk well. Repeat with another 1/3 cup pasta water.
- Transfer pasta to a saucepan using a strainer, letting most, but not all, the water drain off. Reserve cooking water. Add the sauce mixture and turn heat to medium. Cook and stir until sauce thickens enough to coat the pasta evenly, about 2 minutes. Add more pasta water if sauce gets too thick. Stir in pesto. Taste and season as desired. Transfer pasta to a warm bowl.

- Bring a pot of water to boil. When it's boiling, add salt. Throw the pasta in and cook until it's al dente. Be sure to reserve some pasta water.
- 5-7 minutes before the pasta is done cooking, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the garlic clove. Swirl it around in the olive oil to give it a slight garlic flavor, and remove it when it starts to sizzle, a few minutes.
- Add the ricotta to the pan, and heat it slightly, until it melts down and becomes creamy, 2-3 minutes. If the pasta isn't cooked yet, turn the heat down to low.
