Creamy pasta with pepper sauce without tomato and cream, a mouth-watering main course, ideal for the whole family, easy to make just like the paccheri with pepper cream that are equally delicious. A sauce made with a cream of red and yellow peppers, scented with fresh basil, and slowly cooked with the addition of white wine for an exciting result.
To make the dish even tastier and with a touch of freshness, I recommend a nice grating of salted ricotta accompanied by freshly ground black pepper before serving.

Recipe: creamy pasta with peppers
First, prepare the pepper sauce following my recipe (here you will find all the steps) and explanations to make it perfect.
Once the sauce is ready, cook the chosen pasta in a pot of salted boiling water for the time indicated on the package.
Drain it, pour it into the saucepan with the sauce, and let it season for a few minutes, then serve it with a generous grating of salted ricotta and freshly ground black pepper.
Enjoy your meal!
Storage and Tips
Storage: once cooked, the creamy pasta with peppers can be kept in the fridge for up to 1-2 days, stored in an airtight container. I recommend reheating it on the stove or in the microwave before consuming it again.
Tips: salted ricotta makes the dish fresher and more summery, but you can also use parmesan cheese.
