CREAMY PASTA WITH RICOTTA AND HERBS



Creamy Pasta With Ricotta and Herbs image

In this simple, springy pasta, milky ricotta thinned out with a little starchy pasta cooking water makes for a saucy, soupy dish that's seasoned with loads of black pepper and herbs. For the best flavor, use at least three different kinds of herbs, break out some nicer olive oil and look for fresh ricotta. Lemon lovers can grate in the zest of half a lemon as well.

Tips:

  • Use good quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make all the difference in your dish. Look for high-quality ricotta cheese, herbs, and tomatoes.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Linguine should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Use a large skillet: You'll need a large skillet to cook the pasta and sauce together. A 12-inch skillet is a good size.
  • Season the dish to taste: Add salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a drizzle of olive oil for extra flavor.
