Get Misi's recipe: Sheep's Milk Ricotta filled Occhi Pasta

Glutenated enlightenment awaits in this deceptively simple serenade: whipped ricotta filled egg yolk pasta dough, finished in a bath of butter, minced lemon peel and fishy bottarga

“When you go to sleep at night, do your dreams taste like whipped ricotta? Do you have a dog named Rigatoni and another named Diavola? Have you ever thrown a penny in a well and mumbled the words ‘reservation at [Misi]’?”

Misi’s occhi, Italian for “eye,” may just send you off on a neverending quest for glutenated enlightenment. Ricotta is whipped to silky smooth perfection, encased in fresh egg dough, and then bathed in melted butter, minced lemon peel, and a hint of fishy grated bottarga.
