BAKED LINGUINE LOCATELLI
Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 350°F Prepare linguine as per package directions. Drain, toss with 1 tablespoon of the butter and keep warm. Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat in a medium saucepan. After the foam has subsided, slowly add the flour, stirring constantly to form a roux. Allow the roux to cook but do not brown. Combine the heavy cream and the milk in a saucepan over low heat to warm. Slowly add the cream/milk mixture to the roux, whisking to blend. After the mixture begins to thicken, add the white pepper, the red pepper flakes and the garlic powder. Stir to blend for about 3 minutes. Add the grated Locatelli gradually, stirring to blend. The cheese will melt into the white sauce. Once fully melted and blended, taste and add salt and seasoning to taste. Reduce the heat to low to keep warm, but be sure to stir occasionally so it won't stick and burn. In a large bowl, toss the pasta with the sauce, then add the shredded mozzarella and toss carefully to blend. Pour the mixture into a buttered casserole dish and top with the Italian bread crumbs. Place it in the 350° oven for 20 minutes. After baking, if you desire a crusty top, place it under a broiler until lightly browned.
