Had this again tonight. Rather than peel the stems of the broccoli rabe, I throw them in with the pasta water and start the water at the same time I start the sausage. Between cooking in the water alone and then with the pasta, the stems are nice and tender by the time the pasta is added to the sausage and broccoli rabe.

There's an interesting juxtaposition with the Virgin Mary and her halo on the right and the copper pan behind your head. 😜

Thanks for the fun videos! I come from a big family and I was the lucky one that got to cook with Nonna all the time. I miss her and those times. Give your Nonna a hug from me. <3

Hysterical. I nearly spit out my coffee.😂

Very strange coincidence!!! My wife is preparing a variant of this meal for me this very afternoon! Italian sausage, pasta, and swiss chard from our garden. Zona crepuscolare!

This is how I prepare this dish, but I use a little chicken stock to help cook the greens and pasta. Broccoli rob is a bitter green and is in the turnup family. Some people call it, turnip tops. Love pecorino romano! Love, love, love. Bon appétit.

Rossella, this is first time I'm seeing one of your videos. I'm sold! going to store to buy the pasta and making it today. Thank you!

[smitty]

Rosella, I just made this. Awesome! Will definitely be checking out more of your videos.

Why don’t you use some pasta water with the pasta starch? Wonderful recipe, love it.

[debbim]

I make the same dish but instead of the sausage, I use prosciutto like my nanny did 😊😊😊. I’ve also added mushrooms and red pepper when for company ❤️

[donna]

So good to see you both. This looks delicious! Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas/Buon Natale🎄🇮🇹
