Instructions

1. 1

   Set a pot of salted water on to boil for the Italian Sausage — the sauce should be ready when the pasta is, never the other way round.

2. 2

   Sweat Noodles in olive oil with a pinch of salt until it collapses into softness, about five unhurried minutes.

3. 3

   Wake the pan up with Garlic, letting it toast briefly before any liquid goes in.

4. 4

   Cook the Italian Sausage until al dente — bite one, it should yield with a firm white core — and keep that starchy water.

5. 5

   Fold the Italian Sausage through the pan sauce in stages, adding pasta water little by little until it turns glossy and coats the back of a spoon.

6. 6

   Rest the pan off the heat for thirty seconds, then serve with cheese and an unhurried grind of pepper.
