I’m definitely a pasta lover and I like to try different pasta shapes.
You wouldn’t think that the shape of dried pasta can affect a dish, but these lovely ribbons were a perfect accompaniment to this dish and the sauce clung to the ribbons beautifully!
I do occasionally like a creamy sauce but this version is light and lean.
Tick, tick, tick!
