Cavatelli: Simple, homemade cavatelli pasta is one of the most fun shapes to make. You can use a basic dough, or do something more along the lines of what is pictured here. Cavatelli spiked with turmeric and black pepper, and topped with roasted winter vegetables and Parmesan. I use a special cavatelli machine to crank out the shapes pictured in short order, but it is also possible to shape them without special equipment.
