Spaghettoni N° 4

Sauté the aromatics
Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, celery, and garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Cook the sausage
Add the crumbled sausage to the pan and cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown. Use a wooden spoon to break it into small pieces.
Deglaze with wine
Pour in the white wine and let it simmer until mostly evaporated, about 3 minutes, enhancing the depth of flavour.
Simmer the ragù
Stir in the chopped tomatoes and tomato purée. Season with salt and black pepper. Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer gently for 25–30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cook the pasta
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the Pasta Agnesi Spaghettoni until al dente, following the package instructions. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water before draining.
Combine and serve
Toss the drained Pasta Agnesi Spaghettoni into the pan with the ragù, mixing well. Add a splash of reserved pasta water if needed for a silky texture. Sprinkle with freshly chopped sage for a fragrant finishing touch. Serve immediately with freshly grated Pecorino Romano for extra richness.
