10 oz Hot Italian Pork Sausage
6 oz Lumaca Rigata Pasta
1 head Romanesco or White Cauliflower
¼ cup Cream
½ oz Salted Butter

How to make it
1
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Bring a medium pot of salted water (3/4 full) to a boil. Rinse and dry all produce. Core the cauliflower and cut into small florets. Spread on a sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Roast 22-26 minutes until browned and fork-tender.
2
Add the pasta to the boiling water. Cook stirring occasionally 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water (1 cup for 4 servings). Return to the pot.
3
Peel and roughly chop 2 garlic cloves (4 for 4 servings). Finely chop the peppers. In a bowl, combine the ricotta, half the romano, and a drizzle of olive oil; season with salt and pepper.
4
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium-high. Add the sausage and break it apart. Cook undisturbed 3-4 minutes until lightly browned. Continue stirring frequently 4-5 minutes until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a bowl, leaving the fond.
5
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in the pan of fond over medium-high. Add the capers, garlic, and peppers; season. Cook stirring constantly 1-2 minutes until softened. Add the tomato paste and as much chile paste as you like. Cook stirring constantly 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat. Add the cream (shake the packet) and 1/4 cup water (1/2 cup for 4 servings); stir. Taste and season.
6
Add the cooked sausage, sauce, butter, and half the reserved pasta water to the pot. Cook over medium-high, stirring constantly, 1-2 minutes until the pasta is coated, adding more water if needed. Taste and season. Spread the seasoned ricotta in serving dishes. Top with the roasted cauliflower. Serve the pasta alongside. Top the pasta with the remaining romano.

Roasted Red Pepper Pasta
With Cauliflower & Ricotta Cheese makes Roasted Red Pepper Pasta one of the Pork options in Blue Apron's rotating weekly lineup.
Pasta is a type of food typically made from an unleavened dough of wheat flour mixed with water or eggs, and formed into sheets or other shapes, then cooked by boiling or baking. Pasta was originally only made with durum, although the definition has been expanded to include alternatives for a gluten-free diet, such as rice flour, or legumes such as beans or lentils. [1]
