This pasta dish is packed with a variety of flavors and textures. The fire roasted tomatoes bring both smokiness and tanginess, the sage delivers fresh herbaceousness, the bacon lends savoriness, and the cream brings, well, creaminess. Together, these components work in harmony to deliver a tangy, smoky, creamy sauce for tender farfalle. If you don’t have farfalle on hand you could use any other medium-sized shaped pasta.
