Anyone know this recipe? Its a bake ziti type dish.?
Anyone know the recipe or name of this dish? Its like a bake ziti with a white sauce. It was by no means healthy. It had a bunch of eggs, butter and Parmesan cheese. I have made it before from a cookbook I had. I believe it was in the book -
"The Frugal Gourmet Cooks Three Ancient Cuisines, China, Greece, Rome, Delicious Recipes From the Cultures That Most Influenced Western Cooking"
This is by no means healthy, but certainly is delicious!
Penne with 5 Cheeses
Kosher salt
2 C. heavy cream
1 C. crushed tomatoes in thick tomato puree
1/2 c freshly grated Pecorino Romano (1 1/2 oz.)
1/2 c. shredded imported Italian fontina (1 1/2 oz.)
1/4 c. crumbled Italian Gorgonzola (1 1/2 oz.)
2 tablespoons ricotta cheese
1/4 pound fresh mozzarella, sliced
6 fresh basil leaves, chopped
1 pound imported penne rigate pasta
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
Bring 5 quarts of salted water to a boil in a stockpot.
Combine all the ingredients except the penne and butter in a large mixing bowl. Mix well.
Drop the penne into the boiling water and parboil for 4 minutes. Drain well in a colander and add to the ingredients in the mixing bowl, tossing to combine. Divide the pasta mixture among 6 shallow ceramic gratin dishes (1 1/2 to 2 c. capacity) Dot with the butter and bake until bubbly brown on top, 7 to 10 minutes.

Sounds like manicotti, or rigatoni.
