Notes

  1. In a small bowl, toss fruit and sugar. Let macerate while you prepare the rest of the recipe.

  3. Cook pasta as per the recipe's directions.  Let cool. 
  4. Plate the pasta and top with a heaping spoonful of Mascarpone-Vanilla cream and the macerated fruit with its juice.  
  5. Optional toppings: Toasted almonds, a few leaves of fresh mint, and a pinch of flakey sea salt.
