If you're planning on joining Emma in her pasta making soon, this may be a recipe to bookmark. It's got a simple, silky sauce with mascarpone cheese and ribbons of fresh spinach—perfect for letting fresh, just-made noodles shine. Get a link to the recipe, below.
A few weeks ago, we saw another pasta recipe using mascarpone in the sauce. It was a British cooking show, and the chef made a creamy sauce of mascarpone and lemon, served over spaghetti. We made a mental note to try it; then we saw this recipe on Jamie Oliver's website.
The sauce has an important ingredient we mentioned yesterday- pasta water. It thins out the mascarpone and helps the cheese coat the noodles. Sounds delicious.

Could you use kale in this recipe? I have kale available, but no spinach...
FromTheSea: Absolutely. Kale won't wilt down quite as much, volume-wise, as spinach, and you may need to cook it longer, but I think kale is an easy substitute. Sounds good!
I made this dish with kale and it turned out fantastic! I cooked the kale a little longer as you suggested and added about ½ cup of chicken stock to help it out. Thanks for the guidance!
Yum. This looks like a winner.
I added chicken and peas to this recipe and it was hands down, one of the best things I've ever made for a small dinner party.
I made this tonight and it was fantastic. I am wondering though if anyone knows the nutrition information for Jamie's recipes? This dish was so delicious and rich, it seems like it must be bad for me...
It probably was bad for you, but I bet it tasted great!~
