PENNE AL BAFFO (CREAMY TOMATO-HAM PASTA)



Penne al Baffo (Creamy Tomato-Ham Pasta) image

"Al Baffo" is said to be the abbreviated version of an Italian expression "da leccarsi i baffi," which translates to "it is so good you'll lick your whiskers," because the sauce is abundant, thick and creamy. Tomato, ham and cream come together in this simple pasta sauce to form a comforting and easy weeknight meal. Cooked ham (as Italians call it, "prosciutto cotto"), is a hearty addition, as it provides texture and necessary salt. This recipe calls for deli ham, but you can substitute prosciutto or even pancetta if the mood strikes. An extra shower of Parmigiano before serving is a must for this filling meal.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Salt
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 shallot, minced
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
8 ounces sliced deli ham, cut into little squares
1 (28-ounce) can tomato passata (purée)
1 pound penne
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, plus more for garnish

Steps:
