PENNE WITH SAUSAGE IN CREAMY TOMATO SAUCE
This is an easy recipe with tons of flavor, rigatoni pasta can be used in place of penne. If you are using spicy sausages then omit the chili flakes. Try to use only high-quality canned tomato products, it will really make a huge difference in your sauce, no no-name brands for this! With this sauce (and any tomato-based sauce) it needs some time to cook, the longer you cook the sauce uncovered the thicker and richer it will be, you can even start it in the morning turn it off then continue cooking later, cook for even 2 hours!

Steps:
- Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until tender, about 8 minutes. Add sausage and cook until no longer pink, breaking up with fork, about 6 minutes. Stir in pepper flakes. Add wine and boil until absorbed. Mix in crushed tomatoes. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer 25 minutes. Stir 2 tablespoons marjoram into sauce.
- Cook penne in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain well. Return penne to pot. Add half of sauce and stir to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to large bowl. Serve, passing Parmesan separately. (Freeze remaining sauce up to 2 months in covered container.)
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, ripe tomatoes, flavorful sausage, and creamy heavy cream will make all the difference in this dish.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the sausage, make sure to do it in batches so that the pieces can brown properly. If you overcrowd the pan, the sausage will steam instead of brown.
- Cook the pasta al dente: This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant.
- Use a good quality white wine: The white wine used in this recipe should be something that you would enjoy drinking on its own. A dry, crisp white wine like a Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio is a good choice.
- Don't boil the cream: When adding the cream to the sauce, be careful not to let it boil. Boiling will cause the cream to curdle and split.
- Season the dish to taste: Once the sauce is finished, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or Parmesan cheese.
Conclusion:
This penne with tomatoes, sausage, and cream is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The creamy sauce is flavorful and rich, and the sausage and tomatoes add a delicious depth of flavor. Serve this dish with a side of crusty bread or a green salad for a complete meal.
