Penne Al Formaggio Recipes

PASTA AI QUATTRO FORMAGGI

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
• Add the butter to a large skillet over medium heat and add the mushrooms and garlic. Cook until browned, about 5 minutes, then add the wine and cook until evaporated.
• Meanwhile, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions, leaning toward the al dente side. Do not overcook; this will take 1 to 2 minutes!
• Add the cream to the skillet with the mushrooms. Drain the pasta (reserving some of the pasta water) and add the pasta to the mushrooms, along with the fontina, Parmesan, Romano, goat cheese, 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper. Stir gently to combine, adding hot pasta water as needed for consistency. Don't overmix; if there are little clumps of cheese here and there, it's fine! Taste and add more salt if needed. The mixing stage should happen very quickly.
• Turn the pasta out into a large serving bowl. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

PENNE 4 FORMAGGI

Steps:

• Boil the pasta in approx. 3 liters of salted water (10g of salt for each liter of water).
• While the pasta cooks, melt the butter in a large pan and add all the cheeses, keeping on a very gentle heat until they melt completely. Add the milk and stir continiously to keep the cheeses smooth.
• Drain the pasta keeping some of the cooking water aside. Toss the penne into the pan with the melted cheeses and mix very well. Finally, add the grated Parmesan and mix one more time. Use some of the cooking water you set aside if you think you ended up with a bit too dry result. Serve warm and sprinkle with black pepper, if you like it.

• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook your pasta according to the directions on the box, and, as always, to make sure you achieve a proper "al dente" texture, drain it about 2 minutes before what is indicated.

• Turn the broiler on high and broil until golden and crisp on top, 3 to 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Difficoltà: Dosi: per 4 persone Tempo: 20 minuti Le penne al mascarpone sono una ricetta veloce e golosa, particolarmente nutriente. Preparazione: Sbattete i tuorli d'uovo col parmigiano, condite di sale e pepe e mettete a cuocere a bagnomaria. Aggiungete il mascarpone e lavorate bene il composto, in modo da ottenere una crema densa, che potete stemperare con un mestolo di acqua di cottura della pasta. Insaporite con un pizzico di noce moscata. Lessate le penne, scolatele al dente e fatele insaporire nel tegame per qualche minuto prima di servirle. Accorgimenti: Fate attenzione a cuocere l'uovo molto lentamente per evitare che si rapprenda diventando una frittata. Idee e varianti: Potete preparare delle penne al mascarpone eliminando l'uovo e frullando il formaggio con del tonno: otterrete una crema deliziosa da allungare con un po' d'acqua di cottura della pasta.
