🥄 Texture

Thick, creamy sauce that clings to al dente penne, giving a rich and smooth mouthfeel. Small rounds of kabanos add a slightly chewy, meaty bite while canned peas, corn and carrots provide occasional soft pop and contrast.

👃 Aroma

Smoky and savory notes from the kabanos and sautéed onion/garlic dominate, layered with warm dairy creaminess and a faint tang from mustard. A touch of sesame oil adds a subtle nutty fragrance on the finish.

🍷 Pairs Well With

Crisp, unoaked white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc or a light pilsner to cut richness; alternatively sparkling water with a lemon wedge.

🥗 Side Dishes

Simple green salad with a bright vinaigrette, crusty garlic bread or a baguette, and a small pickled cucumber or coleslaw to provide acidity and crunch.
