Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook fusilloni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 10 minutes.

  2. Whisk ricotta, grated Grana padano, turmeric, and black pepper together in a bowl. Stir in enough pasta water to give the sauce a creamy consistency.

  3. Drain the pasta, reserving a bit more pasta water. Fold the pasta into the sauce, adding a bit of pasta water if necessary. Season with salt.

Recipe Note

A quick and filling meal for two is just minutes away. While fusilloni pasta cooks, whip up a sauce made with creamy fresh ricotta, ground turmeric, and add a touch of pepper.
