Author's Notes

To roast garlic, cut the top off to reveal the tops of the cloves. Drizzle the top with olive oil and a sprinkle of salt, then wrap it in foil. Roast it in a 350 F (180 C) oven for an hour, then refrigerate it and use it as needed! It keeps for a long time.
Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Get a large pot of water on to boil for the pasta. Then get out a large, deep skillet and heat the Olive Oil (1 dash) in it over medium-high heat. Brown the Ground Sweet Italian Sausage (1 lb) in it until cooked through completely. Transfer it to a plate.

step 2
Add the Butter (1 Tbsp) to the pan and then toss the Garlic (6 cloves) with it for 1 minute.
step 3
Pour in the White Beans (1 can) and Red Wine (1/4 cup), using the spoon to scrape up any brown bits at the bottom of the pan as the wine deglazes it. Let the beans, garlic, and wine cook together for a couple of minutes.

step 4
Add the sausage back in, along with the Diced Tomatoes (2 cans) and Parmesan Cheese (1/2 cup). Season it all generously with the Salt (2 pinches) and Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (2 pinches) and give it a good stir. Let the sauce simmer for 10 minutes.

step 5
While it simmers, cook the Rigatoni (1 lb) in heavily salted boiling water until tender, 8-10 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup of the starchy, salty cooking water before draining the noodles and pour it into the sauce.
step 6
Toss the drained pasta into the big pan of sauce so that it absorbs some of the sauce as it bubbles together. Take it off the heat after 1 minute.
