Ingredients
  • subheading: GATHER YOUR INGREDIENTS:
  • subheading: Sauce:
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 (28-ounce) can tomato puree
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • subheading: Filling:
  • 10 ounces (1¼ cups) whole-milk ricotta cheese
  • 4 ounces fontina cheese, shredded (1 cup)
  • 2 ounces Pecorino Romano cheese, grated (1 cup)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
  • 1 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • subheading: Shells:
  • 25 jumbo pasta shells
  • 8 ounces fontina cheese, shredded (2 cups)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
  • subheading: BEFORE YOU BEGIN:
  • Shred the fontina on the large holes of a box grater. Be sure to use only open, unbroken shells. We developed this recipe using Barilla Jumbo Shells and were able to find at least 25 open shells in each 1-pound box we used. Pipe each shell only about three-quarters full on your first pass, and then divide the remaining filling evenly among the shells.
