Rather than being cooked in salted water, the pasta is treated like risotto-simmered in stock and stirred until cooked and creamy-which gives it plenty of time to pick up meaty flavors.

Steps:
- Heat butter and 2 Tbsp. oil in a large pot over medium. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden brown, 12-18 minutes. Add wine, bring to a boil, and cook until liquid is reduced by half, 8-10 minutes. Add ditalini and 2 cups stock and cook, stirring occasionally and adding remaining 4 cups stock 1 cup at a time as pasta absorbs liquid, until pasta is al dente and sauce loosens, 25-30 minutes.
- Add 1/2 cup Pecorino and cook until cheese is melted and mixture is creamy. If sauce becomes too thick, add more stock until it's slightly runny again. Season pasta with salt. Divide among shallow bowls and top with kale, mustard greens, and more Pecorino. Sprinkle with pepper and drizzle with oil.

[email protected]This risotto was a disaster! The rice was overcooked and mushy, and the asparagus was limp and flavorless. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I won't be trying this one again.

[email protected]Meh. I've had better risotto. The flavor was just okay, and the texture was a bit mushy. I don't think I'll be making this again.

[email protected]This ditalini risotto was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it needed more salt and pepper, and maybe some additional herbs or spices. Otherwise, the texture was good and the asparagus was cooked nicely.
