A super tasty first course, the creamy pasta with tomato and stracchino cheese is a delight to savor. Very simple to prepare, quick, just the time to cook the pasta and the sauce is ready. We can use tomato sauce or tomato pulp, perhaps blending only a part if we love chunks. This pasta, like pasta with tomato and ricotta, is also very popular with the little ones. The creamy pasta with tomato and stracchino should be served freshly made and, enriched with aromatic herbs, is a wonderful summer dish, but not only in summer. In fact, when the season gets colder, it will remind us of summer scents and flavors.

Preparation of Creamy Pasta with Tomato and Stracchino
Heat the water. Separately, chop the celery, carrot, and onion, and let them soften in a pan with extra virgin olive oil. Add the tomato sauce, salt, and chili pepper. Let reduce for about ten minutes.
Throw in the pasta when the water is boiling and after salting it. Drain it a couple of minutes before it’s done cooking, saving some of its cooking water.
Flavor the pasta with the prepared sauce for a couple of minutes, using the reserved cooking water as needed. Remove from heat, add stracchino and oregano, and after mixing, serve immediately.
Storage
Do not store the pasta, but serve immediately when ready.
