Ingredients
Instructions
  1. 1

    To prepare the pasta with pumpkin, chestnuts, and tomino cheese, first, take care of the chestnuts. In a pan, pour the oil, a clove of garlic, and 4-5 sage leaves 1. Let it flavor for a minute, then pour in the chestnuts 2. Cook for 20 minutes over medium-high heat, adding a little water if needed during cooking 3. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    While the chestnuts are cooking, remove the seeds from the pumpkin 4 and peel it 5, then cut it into cubes of about half a cm 6 and set aside.

  3. 3

    Once the chestnuts are cooked, remove the clove of garlic 7. Transfer them to a tall, narrow container, add a little water, and blend with an immersion blender until you get a cream 9. To better adjust the consistency, add the water little by little.

  4. 4

    In the same pan where you cooked the chestnuts, pour a drizzle of oil, a clove of garlic, and more sage leaves. Let it flavor and add the pumpkin 10. Cook the pumpkin for about 5-6 minutes; being very small cubes, it will cook quickly. Season with salt 11 and pepper. When the pumpkin is well browned but soft, transfer it to a bowl 12.

  5. 5

    In the same pan, pour the chestnut cream again 13. Meanwhile, cook the pasta in boiling salted water 14. Cut the tomino cheese into small cubes as well 15.

  6. 6

    Drain the pasta al dente directly into the pan 16 and add a little of the cooking water 17. Also, add the tomino cheese cubes 18 and toss everything well.

  7. 7

    Add a grind of pepper 19 and when it is very creamy, turn off the heat. Plate, adding the cubed pumpkin on top 20 and sage leaves. Your pasta with pumpkin, chestnuts, and tomino cheese is ready to be served 21!
