Franciscan pasta, too tasty!


Franciscan pasta

Franciscan pasta is a typical product of Southern Italy, very tasty and prepared with sausage, cream and mushrooms.

Franciscan pasta is a typical dish of Southern Italy which, like many others, is really difficult to codify . Basically it is a first course seasoned with a very rich meat-based sauce , usually sausage, mushrooms and tomato. As if that weren't enough, cream is also added to make everything even more enjoyable.

There is no real history of Franciscan pasta: in fact, it is difficult to think of referring the dish to the Franciscan friars precisely because of the richness of the ingredients. But that doesn't matter: what really matters is that it's simple to prepare and infinitely good.
