Any sweet peppers will work in this dish, but we like colorful, tender baby bell peppers. When making a pasta dish, one simple trick will take the dish from good to great. Quality ingredients are a must; choose the best cheese and sausage available. The key to making great tasting pasta, however, is in the cooking water. Add about 2 tablespoons of kosher salt to a large stockpot of water before boiling. When the pasta is cooked, reserve a couple of cups of cooking water before draining the pasta. The salty, starchy liquid seasons your homemade sauce, gives it a silky texture and helps it cling to the noodles. Dont rinse the pasta or you will wash away more of the good starch. Add the pasta water a little at a time, stirring until the sauce is rich and smooth. Hit the farmers market and pick up fresh sweet peppers. Spend some time at the dinner table this summer instead of sweating in the kitchen and enjoy a meal with the family.
