October 7, 2021

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Another Saturday pasta has been serbed and I am sure that it will pleasantly surprise you. It is mouthwatering, easy to make, simple and very autumnal. Sausage and chestnuts pasta. Yes, it is as delicious as it sounds.

WHAT SAUSAGES SHOULD I CHOOSE?

For the sausage and chestnuts pasta you may choose any sausage you desire and crave. But I would suggest not to be a sausage with very strong flavors such as a red pepper flakes sausage. The sausages I used were based on beef and did not have any other special spice.

SHOULD THE CHESTNUTS BE BOILED?

Before you start this amazing sauce, you should have boiled the chestnuts. The process is simple as described below. Score the chestnuts with an “X” deep enough to cut through the outer skin. Boil them in a saucepan with plenty of water. Boil for about twenty minutes, until softened. Pour the content of the pot into a drain. While the chestnuts are still warm peel them. Chestnuts are very easy to clean when warm. If cool, put them back in the pot with water and warm them slightly.

CAN I PUT THE SAUCE IN THE FREEZER?

This unique pasta sauce with rustic sausage and chestnuts can make you happy at any time. And this is because if you want you can put it in the freezer after it is cooked and defrost it on a demanding day.
