Mparrettati. The word gives Spell Check the heebie jeebies. Heebie jeebies give Spell Check heebie jeebies. Whatever. Mparrettati does nice things for the body. There's something deeply satisfying about some of these rustic regional pasta shapes. This one especially because of its length combined with the curl. The curl seems to give the pasta a will of its own, so that if its lying one way on your fork it behaves perfectly, but if it lies the other way it can flip over unexpectedly, flicking a bit of sauce out in any direction. This is live food. I get some good fat pork & fennel sausages at the weekly markets. I save a few for grilling. The rest go into a big batch of this sauce. I then divide it into 2-serve portions for freezing. This way there's always a sugo waiting for those nights when there's no time or energy for anything flasher.
