beehive pasta timbale

dinner for M
inspired by this book



based on this
recipe

i've been fascinated by this concept of a pasta-encased dish ever since i received diane seed's the top 100 pasta sauces as a birthday gift back in the 80's and saw the illustration for bucatini alla flamande. after twenty years, i figured it was time to try it. unfortunately, i realized the recipe in the book is a little vague, so i searched online for something similar and was happy to find lex culinaria's beehive pasta timbale. sounds like the same book and recipe inspired her as well. It came out quite nicely, even though i changed the quantities to make a smaller version. i will definitely make it again because it was fun to make, looked cool and it was really delicious!
