SAUSAGE AND PEPPER PENNE
This recipe is the best when made using farmer's sausage, but any sausage links will do. Add the red pepper flakes at the end for a little kick, or leave them out if spice isn't for you.

Tips:
- Choose the right sausage: Use a spicy sausage that has a good flavor, such as Italian sausage or chorizo. You can also use a mild sausage if you prefer.
- Cook the sausage thoroughly: Sausage can be a source of foodborne illness, so it is important to cook it thoroughly before eating. Cook the sausage over medium heat until it is no longer pink in the center.
- Use fresh corn: Fresh corn on the cob is best for this recipe, but you can also use frozen or canned corn if you prefer.
- Make sure the pasta is cooked al dente: Al dente pasta is cooked through but still has a slightly firm bite to it. This will help the pasta hold its shape and prevent it from becoming mushy.
- Add some spice: If you like spicy food, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper to the sauce.
- Serve with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese: Parmesan cheese adds a delicious salty and nutty flavor to this dish.
Conclusion:
Penne with Corn and Hot Sausage is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. The combination of spicy sausage, sweet corn, and creamy sauce is sure to please everyone at the table.
