Recipe from: Comfort Foods

This dish is a fall favorite of my family.

Servings: 4 as an entrée, 8 as an appetizer

  • 2 drizzles extra-virgin olive oil

  • 1 pound bulk sweet sausage

  • 1 medium onion, chopped fine

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 bay leaf, fresh or dried

  • 4 to 6 leaves fresh sage, slivered (about 1 1/2 tablespoons)

  • 1 cup dry white wine

  • 1 can (14 ounces) chicken broth

  • 1 cup canned pumpkin

  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

  • 2 pinches ground cinnamon

  • 3 pinches ground nutmeg

  • Coarse salt and black pepper, to taste

  • 1 pound penne rigate or rigatoni pasta, cooked until al dente

  • Romano or Parmigiano cheese, for grating over pasta

  1. In a deep pot over medium heat, pour in 1 drizzle of oil and brown sausage in it. Remove to paper towel-lined plate to drain and return pan to heat. Add second drizzle of oil to pan and sauté onion and garlic 5 minutes, till soft and sweet. Add bay leaf, sage, and wine to pot. Reduce wine for 2 minutes. Add broth and pumpkin and combine, stirring sauce until it comes to a bubble. Return sausage to pan, reduce heat, and stir in cream. Season with cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt and pepper and simmer 5 minutes.

  2. To serve, return drained, cooked pasta to the pot you cooked it in. Remove bay leaf from sauce and pour sauce over pasta. Toss pasta and sauce 1 or 2 minutes over low heat so pasta can absorb flavors. Top bowls of pasta with freshly grated Parmigiano or Romano cheese.
