Pasta alla Norcina is a traditional dish of Umbrian cuisine. It takes its name from the town of Norcia, famous throughout the world for the production of sausages.

It is a rich and substantial first course, easy and very fast, particularly suitable for Autumn and Winter which is prepared with pork sausage (the Norcia sausage would be ideal) crumbled in a pan with oil and onion, fresh cream , truffle and pecorino. As kind of pasta are preferable penne, rigatoni or the traditional strangozzi (a handmade pasta typical of Umbria).

Tips & variations

  • If you don't have the black truffle, you can use an oil flavored with truffles: the flavor will be less intense, but the pasta alla norcina will still be excellent. Or you can try a simpler version with only sausage and cream, without using truffles.

  • Due to the presence of the cream, the Pasta alla Norcina should be consumed immediately or you can keep it in the fridge for up to 1 day.
