Penne Rigate
with Spiced Pork and Tomato Ragu
A cautionary tale today: Choosing pasta shapes shouldn't be an arbitrary decision. If the correct protocol isn't followed, the consequences* can be severe. We once witnessed a chef adding Bolognese sauce to spaghetti instead of tagliatelle and it wasn’t long before a full blown continental spat erupted around the dinner table. For this chunky sauce penne is a great choice, since its hollow shape holds more sauce and the 'rigate' (ridges to you and me) add texture and hold even more of your ragu. If the Pasta Police try any funny business, tell them Hello Fresh told you to do it. *being chased by an angry Italian septuagenarian with a rolling pin is never fun.
