Ciao, gorgeous. What is life without a little drama? We all need some emotion, some fire, and a place to let it all out, as long as we get through it in the end. This is why I open the Pasta Queen Hotline. You call me and tell me everything: the mother-in-law, the boyfriend, the neighbor who steals your parking spot. I listen, and I always find a solution. Many times the solution is a big plate of pasta.
So while you talk, I cook something magnificent for your holiday table: rigatoni with mushrooms, sausage and peas, with white wine, cream and a lot of Parmigiano. The mushrooms hide inside every rigatone like a little secret.
This is Episode 1 of Pasta, Drama and ALL Things Italiana. There are four episodes, and you see them here in the Royal Court first. So pour a glass of wine, sit with me, and call the Queen!
