Steps:
- For the filling and sauce: Shred the Sartori Black Pepper BellaVitano® on the large holes of a box grater. Place 1/2 cup of the cheese in an airtight container in the refrigerator for serving. Reserve the remaining cheese for the filling.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until foamy, but not brown. Add the leeks, shallots and 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring frequently, until softened and translucent, but not brown, about 5 minutes. Add the peas and cook until heated through and softened, but still bright green, about 1 minute. Transfer the mixture to a food processor and add the lemon zest, 1 tablespoon butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the reserved Sartori Black Pepper BellaVitano®. Process, scraping down the sides as needed, until smooth. Let cool to room temperature, then transfer to a pastry bag fitted with a 3/4-inch-wide plain tip.
- For the pasta dough: Whisk the oil, whole eggs and yolk with a fork in a large liquid measuring cup.
- Put the flour and a large pinch of salt in a food processor and pulse briefly to combine. With the motor running, slowly add the egg mixture through the feed tube and process until the dough forms a ball around the blade. (If the dough is too sticky to form a ball, add a tablespoon or so of flour and process again. If it is too crumbly to form a ball, add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and process again.) Once the dough forms a ball, process until smooth and springy, 20 to 30 seconds.
- Transfer the dough to a floured work surface and knead several times until it comes together in a smooth ball. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. (The dough can be made 1 day ahead, wrapped and refrigerated. Let it come to room temperature before rolling.)
- Anchor a pasta machine to your countertop or fit a stand mixer with the pasta attachment. Set the machine to the widest setting. Unwrap the dough and cut it into 4 equal pieces. Wrap 3 of the pieces while you work with the fourth.
- Flatten the dough piece into a rectangle and lightly dust with flour. Roll it through the pasta machine. Fold the dough in thirds like a letter and feed it through the pasta machine. Repeat the folding and feeding of the dough through the machine 2 more times. (Rolling and folding in this manner will help strengthen and smooth the dough.)
- Set the pasta machine to the next setting (one setting thinner than the widest). Flour the dough as necessary and feed it through the machine. Repeat, feeding it through one more time. Adjust the machine to the next thinnest setting and feed the dough through 2 times as above. Continue changing the setting and feeding the dough through 2 times for each setting until you have fed the dough through the second-to-last setting. The dough should be thin enough to see your hand through. Cover the dough sheet with plastic wrap. Repeat the folding and rolling process with the 3 remaining pieces of dough, covering each dough sheet as you finish.
- Lightly dust a baking sheet with flour. Starting 1 inch from one end of a sheet of dough, pipe an even line of filling all the way down it, stopping 1 inch from the other end. Fold the dough over so that it extends about 1 inch past the filling and press to seal the long edge. Trim the excess dough from the sealed side with a fluted pasta wheel. Seal the ends by pinching them together. With your thumb and forefinger, pinch every inch along the dough sheet to make little pockets of filling (short fingernails work best here so the dough doesn't tear). Use the fluted pasta wheel to cut between each pocket, starting closest to you and pushing firmly away, creating little purses. Transfer to the baking sheet and repeat with the remaining dough and filling. Refrigerate until ready to cook.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
- Combine the lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons water and remaining 5 tablespoons butter in a large skillet. Heat over medium heat, swirling often, until the butter is melted and the sauce is emulsified.
- Add the agnolotti to the boiling water and stir. Once they float to the surface, let them cook for about 1 minute. Use a spider or slotted spoon to transfer the agnolotti to the skillet and coat in the sauce. Gently transfer to a warm serving platter, top with the reserved 1/2 cup
- Sartori Black Pepper BellaVitano® and sprinkle with the mint and black pepper.
PASTA PRIMAVERA WITH ASPARAGUS AND PEAS
This simple pasta primavera uses a combination of the earliest vegetables available in spring - asparagus, peas and spring onions - making it a true celebration of the season. The sauce works best with springy egg pasta, preferably homemade or a good purchased brand. Make sure not to overcook it; you need the chewy bite to stand up to the gently cooked vegetables. If you can't find good fresh English peas, you can substitute frozen peas, but don't add them until the last minute of cooking.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil over medium-high heat.
- While the water is coming to a boil, slice snap peas and asparagus stems into 1/4-inch-thick pieces; leave asparagus tips whole.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add snap peas, asparagus, English peas and onion. Cook until vegetables are barely tender (but not too soft or mushy), 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook 1 minute more. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
- Drop pasta into boiling water and cook until al dente (1 to 3 minutes for fresh pasta, more for dried pasta). Drain well and transfer pasta to a large bowl. Immediately toss pasta with vegetables, Parmigiano-Reggiano, crème fraîche and herbs. Season generously with salt and pepper, if needed.

Steps:
- For filling:
- Combine 1/2 cup cream (for fresh peas) or 3 tablespoons cream (for frozen), sugar, garlic, salt, and pepper in medium saucepan; bring to boil. Add peas and cook until tender, about 10 minutes for fresh and 3 minutes for frozen. Transfer mixture to processor and purée until smooth, scraping sides of bowl occasionally, about 3 minutes. Transfer mixture to bowl; mix in both cheeses and thyme. Chill filling at least 1 hour. Do ahead Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and keep chilled.
- For piedmontese pasta dough:
- Blend flour and salt in processor. Add yolks, whole egg, and olive oil; process until soft dough forms, adding water by tablespoonfuls if dry. Turn dough out onto lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth, about 8 minutes. Wrap in plastic wrap; let rest at room temperature 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Cut dough into 4 equal pieces. Turn pasta machine to widest setting. Flatten 1 dough piece into rectangle. Cover remaining dough pieces with plastic wrap. Run dough through machine 4 times. Adjust machine to next narrower setting. Run dough through machine 4 times. Repeat running dough strip through machine 4 times on each narrower setting, cutting dough strip in half crosswise for easier handling when strip becomes very long and dusting dough with flour as needed if sticky. Continue rolling until pasta strips are 22 to 24 inches long, dusting lightly with flour as needed. Repeat rolling with remaining 3 dough pieces. Let dough strips dry slightly on floured work surface until no longer sticky to touch for easier handling, about 10 minutes.
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper; dust lightly with flour. Cut each dough strip into 3-inch squares (about 8 from each dough strip). Place 1 teaspoon filling in center of each square. Brush 2 adjacent dough edges with water; fold 1 long side over filling, enclosing filling and pressing to seal, forming rectangle. Transfer to prepared baking sheets, arranging in single layer. Do ahead Can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover with towel and let stand at room temperature.
- Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat; remove from heat. Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Add half of agnolotti and cook just until tender, about 5 to 6 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer agnolotti to large sieve and drain well, then add to skillet with butter. Repeat with remaining agnolotti. Toss agnolotti over medium-high heat until coated with butter and heated through, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle lightly with chopped thyme. Divide among 6 bowls; sprinkle with Parmesan shavings and serve.
