Tagliatelle with pea and truffle cream

A spring first course, simple and well-balanced

With spring, the way we cook also changes.

We look for more lightness, more freshness, but without sacrificing taste.
It's the moment when just a few well-chosen ingredients are enough to bring something truly satisfying to the table.

This recipe was born precisely this way: a simple, quick dish, yet capable of providing a sense of completeness.

Ingredients (for 2 people)

• 200 g of traditional Bolognese tagliatelle from Lina Sapori e Delizie or white truffle tagliatelle from Lina Sapori e Delizie
• 150 g of peas (fresh or frozen)
• 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
• 1 knob of butter (optional)
• 2 teaspoons of Parmesan sauce with white truffle from Lina Sapori e Delizie or a few drops of white truffle olive oil from Lina Sapori e Delizie
• salt to taste
• Grated Parmigiano Reggiano (optional)

Preparation

1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the tagliatelle.
2. Meanwhile, cook the peas in lightly salted water for a few minutes until they are soft.
3. Drain them and blend with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil until you get a smooth cream.
   If needed, add a little cooking water to adjust the consistency.
4. Pour the cream into a pan, add a small knob of butter (if you like) and heat gently.
5. Drain the tagliatelle and sauté them in the pea cream.
6. Off the heat, add the Parmesan sauce or a few drops of truffle oil.

👉 This step is important: truffle doesn't like very high temperatures.

How to serve

Serve the tagliatelle hot, with a light sprinkle of Parmesan if desired.

The result is a balanced dish:

• the sweetness of the peas
• the richness of the pasta
• the aroma of truffle that comes through at the end

A small tip

When using truffle, the rule is always the same: don't cover it, but complement it.

Just a few steps are enough to transform a simple dish into something special.

In conclusion

This is a recipe that works well on busy days, when you have little time but don't want to give up eating well.

It's proof that everyday cooking can be: simple, seasonal, and carefully prepared.

Without complicating your life.

Enjoy your meal!
