Homemade Pappardelle with Shrimps

Here we offer you a refined combination in a creamy first course: shrimp pappardelle, with the addition of a cream prepared with cherry tomatoes and prawns. Serve this dish ending with a sprinkling of chopped parsley and you will taste that goodness!

Choose the unshelled and fresh shrimps for a perfect result of the dish. To easily peel them, after having cut the heads, it will be sufficient to cut with a pair of scissors along the back, widen the shells and extract the pulp.

In addition, the taste of homemade pappardelle, my favorite egg pasta format, is unrivaled for its unique and inimitable taste. Its characteristic roughness ensures that the pasta collects the sauces used to season it so that the pleasure of the palate is fully satisfied with each forkful! The recipe that I propose is suitable for all long egg pasta formats and not only for the homemade pappardelle. Just cut the dough into more or less thin slices depending on whether you want to get tagliatelle, tagliolini, fettuccine, and so on.
