Italy’s Forgotten Pastas

Milk Street heads to Italy to uncover lesser-known Italian pasta recipes that deserve your attention. Christopher Kimball and J.M. Hirsch prepare Pasta with Spicy Tomato and Pancetta Sauce, where the secret spicy ingredient takes everyone by surprise. Then, after getting a lesson on pasta shapes from across Italy, we make Handmade Orecchiette. Finally, Rose Hattabaugh makes Rigatoni alla Zozzona, a mash-up of cheesy, porky, egg-rich carbonara and spicy, tomatoey Amatriciana.
