This pasta tastes as good as a restaurant. Easy to make, but very rich to eat. I've made this for just my family and also for a party of about 40 people. It gets rave reviews. I originally got this recipe from a cooking class, but I made a couple of changes.

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4-1/2 teaspoon dried chipotle powder (chipotle chili powder)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 can evaporated skim milk
1 1/2 cups milk (2% or skim is fine)
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup grated asiago cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
4 ounces roasted garlic cheese rolls, shredded (1 cup, I use Hoffmann's)
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 lb belleflour pasta, cooked al dente and drained (I use Barilla Campanelle pasta)
1 cup frozen peas

Steps:

  • In medium saucepan, melt butter.
  • Combine flour, dry mustard, chipotle chili powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Stir with whisk flour mixture into melted butter, and cook for about 1 minute or until bubbly.
  • Slowly add evaporated milk, stirring to combine, then add regular milk as stirring.
  • Cook over medium heat until sauce begins to thicken.
  • The fattier the milk, the thicker the sauce.
  • Add cheeses and reduce heat to low; cook stirring frequently until sauce thickens.
  • Stir in tomato paste.
  • Pour cheese sauce over cooked pasta.
  • Stir in peas.
  • Serve at once.
  • If desired, top with buttered bread crumbs and bake in 350 degree F oven for 10 to 15 minutes to brown topping.
  • (I never do this step.).

This pasta formaggia was a bit too cheesy for my taste, but it was still good. The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the pasta was cooked perfectly. I would recommend using less cheese next time.
