Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 1/2 C flour
8 egg yolks
EVO
1/2 yellow onion, diced
4 stems rosemary
4 bay leaves
4 stems fresh sage
3/4 lbs. Italian sausage, diced
2 tomatoes, peeled, diced with seeds removed
Brown sauce (use a classic recipe)
2 T grated Parmesan cheese
Diced parsley
Salt

Steps:

Make a mound of the flour on a board. Beat the egg yolks with the oil and a pinch of salt then place in center of the flour mound. Knead together until the pasta is smooth. Roll out the pasta into very thin sheets and let it dry. Then cut into small squares about 6 inches on each side. Gather the herbs into 4 small bunches and tie. Then, using a small amount of oil, sauté the diced onion and herbs until golden in a pan. Add the diced sausage, and after 5 minutes add the tomatoes. Add 6 to 7 ladles of brown sauce. Let it cook on low for about an hour. Cook the pasta squares in salted water and then place on ovenproof plates. Spread them with the sausage ragu, the Parmesan cheese, a ribbon of olive oil and a sprinkle of parsley. Brown in the oven and serve immediately.
