Mmm, these little pillows were perfection! The water buffalo filling was so good and I loved the aggressive black pepper flavor. The rich sauce and fun textures put this pasta over the top. Noms!

I’ve never heard of tajarin pasta before, but I guess it’s a thinner version of tagliatelle. Anyway, the best part of this dish was the brown butter giblet sauce – omg, SO good! Combined with the grated cheese on top, it was the best combination of sweet and salty.

I’m in love with this pasta! The rabbit tortellini was perfectly cooked al dente and it tasted wonderful. The wheat berry broth was rich and umami and really complimented the rabbit nicely.

This was different for me. I can’t say that I eat a lot of pasta with poached and marinated tuna. The taggiasca was fun to eat though, but perhaps the entire dish was bit on the salty side. So this wasn’t my favorite pasta of the night.
