Author: Teri & Jenny

Ingredients

  • ½ recipe homemade beet pasta dough
  • ½ pound Italian turkey sausage
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 shallot, minced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 sprigs thyme
  • cup white wine
  • 1 cup cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Make ½ beet pasta dough recipe according to instructions and roll until paper thin. Cut out 50, 2 inch, circles and discard dough scraps.
  • Brush each pasta circle with egg wash and place 1 teaspoon of turkey sausage into the center of each circle. Bring the sides of each circle to the center and pinch and twist together to form little ‘sacks’.
  • Sprinkle a baking sheet with semolina flour and place fiocchi onto the baking sheet, ½ inch apart.
  • Fill a large pot with water and place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Sprinkle a small handful of salt into the water and add about 20 fiocchi. Boil for about 4 to 5 minutes or until the sausage and pasta have cooked through and float to the top.
  • While pasta boils, begin sauce. Place a large skillet over medium heat and add butter.
  • Once butter melts, add shallots and garlic and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes. Add thyme and continue to sauté for 1 minute. Deglaze skillet with wine and continue to cook until almost all liquid has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add cream and simmer until liquid reduces by half and has thickened. Adjust seasonings.
  • Using a slotted spoon transfer fiocchi into the cream sauce and toss together.
  • Remove from heat, pull out thyme sprigs and top with freshly grated Parmesan. Transfer to a platter and serve.
