INSTRUCTIONS

Mince together the celery and carrot, adding the herbs towards the end to
chop only coarsely. Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high
heat. Add the salami and cook to release a little of its fat. Stir in the
minced celery blend, the onions, a little salt, and a generous amount of
black pepper. Turn the heat down to medium and saute to golden brown.
Stir in the garlic and hot pepper, cooking a few minutes. Add the wine and
slowly simmer the mixture until it is almost completely reduced, scraping
up the brown bits at the bottom of the pan. Stir in the tomato paste and
cook 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, crushing them with your hands as they go
into the pan. Cook, uncovered, at a lively bubble (turn the heat up if
necessary), stirring and scraping down the sides of the pan with a spatula.
Cook 10 minutes, or until thick. Taste for seasoning, cover, and remove
from heat.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta in rolling boiling water, stirring often, until
slightly underdone. Drain in a colander.
Add the pasta to the sauce and toss together over medium heat for 2 to 3
minutes, tasting for hot pepper and salt. Spread about 1/3 of the pasta in
a heated serving bowl and daub with a third of the ricotta. Layer in more
pasta and ricotta, then the remaining pasta, finishing with a few spoonfuls
of ricotta. Serve hot.
