Quadrucci with Peas

The recipe for “my” quadrucci with peas is not very brothy, but as always, you can make it more comforting to your taste by increasing the amount of vegetable broth with which the egg pasta called quadrucci is cooked.

Quadrucci is a type of small pasta typically prepared in broth, and it can be paired not only with fresh and/or frozen peas but also with diced carrots, a spinach cream, diced green beans, and even legumes such as chickpeas… In short, with many vegetables in cream or small pieces, we can make a tasty soup suitable for the last cold days of early spring!

    Instead of quadrucci, we can make this soup with a typical Romagna pasta called MANFETTINI

If you prefer, you can also add a ladle of tomato puree if you want to prepare quadrucci with peas in a red version!
