Tyler just shared his recipe for “Mil Fromages,” a mac and cheese that incorporates as many cheese bits as you can find (or would like to include)! A little while back, I also shared a recipe – one that uses only Parmigiano Reggiano and is done with toasted orzo, a trick I learned from B&G Oysters. Happy cooking!

You’re right! I don’t know why mushrooms never came up – they’re always a great idea!

In this case, Emily’s quote is more descriptive than translational. I imagine the same thing may have happened with farfalle which is correctly translated as butterflies but has become more commonly known (at least in the US) as bow-ties (farfallino in Italian). Not that I’m proposing a name change in the US, but I think orecchiette pasta does look more like little hats than ears!

However, I always thought the pasta shape looked like little clochette hats too!
