Wonderful recipe, Ina, thanks, that share it :) Very easy, quick and tasty - I did it with Fussili and ricotta, basil and much of himself added a little cayenne pepper flakes. I just need to remove from the fire as zahlupih with cup - water flowed over the dense superimposing, but use a glass bowl and I was afraid not to crack. Maybe it was a bit small pot, but still, and removed from the heat, pasta've played enough steam to heat the bowl and soften cheese, so it was not a problem.

Nevi, very glad that you liked the! This sauce can be warm and water bath or steam in another court, but it is given in the recipe. The objective is further warming and to obtain a smooth sauce. Give the photo! :)

ate too fast and did not wait for a photo, but these days I will make it and then you put :)
