Casarecce con Sugo di Salsiccia e Broccolo Rabe Campano
Campania — Napoli e Caserta province
Campania's peasant pasta — casarecce (S-shaped twisted tubes) with a sauce of Napoli pork sausage (salsiccia napoletana) crumbled and cooked down with cime di rapa (broccoli rabe, rapini) and a little Pecorino. The bitterness of the rapini against the fat and fennel sweetness of the Napoli sausage is one of the great flavour combinations of southern Italian cooking. The casarecce's twisted shape holds the crumbled sausage and rapini in its cavities.
