Ingredients:

Serving

1 (15 oz) container part-skim ricotta cheese
1/3 cup finely grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese (1 oz)
3 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
2 tbsp chopped fresh oregano
1 tbsp chopped fresh sage
1/2 tsp fresh coarse ground black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1 lb mafalde noodles, each noodle broken into thirds or 1 lb campanelle pasta
3 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp olive oil
1/3 cup pine nuts, coarsely chopped (1 3/4 oz)

Directions:

Stir together ricotta, Parmigiano-Reggiano, herbs, pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large serving bowl.
Cook pasta in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water until al dente.
Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, then drain pasta in a colander.
While pasta is boiling, heat butter and oil in a deep 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides. Add pine nuts and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until nut and butter mixture is golden brown, about 3 minutes.
Add drained pasta to pine nut butter along with 1/3 cup of reserved pasta cooking water and stir to coat.
Thin ricotta mixture with 1/2 cup more of reserved cooking water, then add pasta and toss to combine.
Thin with some of remaining reserved cooking water if necessary. Serve immediately.
