BAKED ORECCHIETTE WITH PORK SUGO
In Italian cuisine, a sugo is a gravy or sauce. Here, Ethan Stowell prepares a pork sugo by braising pork shoulder until it almost falls apart, shredding it in a food processor and mixing it with a red-wine-and-tomato sauce; then he bakes it with orecchiette under a topping of Parmigiano cheese until crispy. The dish is an excellent alternative to the usual baked pasta, because it's not as heavy and cheesy but still delicious and satisfying. This recipe by Ethan Stowell, from "10 Entertaining Essentials Satisfying Family Style Dishes." Appeared in F&W Magazine October, 2008

Steps:
- Season the pork with salt and pepper.
- In a large enameled cast-iron casserole, heat the olive oil until shimmering.
- Add the pork in a single layer and cook over moderately high heat until the pieces are golden brown all over, about 12 minutes.
- Add the carrots, celery, onion and garlic and cook until softened and browned in spots, about 8 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes and their juices and bring to a simmer.
- Add the red wine and thyme sprigs and cook over high heat until the wine is reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
- Add the stock and bring to a boil.
- Cover and simmer over low heat until the pork is very tender, about 2 hours.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pork and vegetables to a food processor; discard the thyme sprigs.
- Pulse just until the pork is shredded.
- Scrape the shredded pork and vegetables back into the casserole.
- Stir in the chopped parsley, oregano and crushed red pepper and season with salt and pepper.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the orecchiette until it is still firm to the bite, about 5 minutes; drain well.
- Add the orecchiette to the casserole and toss with the pork sauce.
- Scrape the pasta into a very large baking dish and sprinkle all over with the Parmigiano-Reggiano.
- Bake the casserole in the upper third of the oven for about 35 minutes, until golden brown on top and bubbling.
- Let the baked pasta stand for 10 minutes before serving.
- *The pork sugo can be refrigerated for up to 2 days; reheat before tossing with the orecchiette.
- **Serve with a Green salad and Rich, black-fruited Amarone Classico: 2004 Masi Costasera.

BAKED RICOTTA ORECCHIETTE
Baked ricotta honestly rivals the whole baked feta thing. It's such a simple, easy-to-make dish that's so delicious. Garnish with fresh herbs and/or some freshly grated Grana Padano cheese. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Combine cherry tomatoes, zucchini, bell pepper, onion, sun-dried tomatoes, oregano, and garlic in a large, 3-quart baking dish. Drizzle generously with 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with pepper flakes, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir to coat everything. Make a well in the center of the dish and drop in the ricotta cheese. Drizzle the ricotta with remaining olive oil and give it a generous pinch more of pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Switch the oven to broil at 500 degrees F (260 degrees C) and continue to cook until desired blistering and browning occurs, 2 to 4 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook orecchiette in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water.
- Remove the baked ricotta dish from the oven and place onto a wire cooling rack.
- Add thyme leaves, then stir the ricotta to break it up. Stir in fresh basil, parsley, and lemon juice. Add the reserved pasta water to loosen things up if needed. Taste and adjust salt if desired. Add the orecchiette and stir until everything is coated. Serve.
