This artisanal fresh pasta takes just a few minutes to cook. While the water boils, fry off some spicy ‘nduja and add a tin of fire-roasted tomatoes for a smoky, arrabiata-style linguine. Stir through a bag of baby spinach and top it off with a dollop of baked ricotta to temper the heat. Delicious!
