    Recipe



    Nekked S’ketti
    I discovered a version of this recipe at an Italian restaurant in Florida while I was in the Navy. On the menu, it was very plainly titled “Pasta with Italian Sausage and Peppers.” After I retired, my wife and I moved back to North Carolina. Our good friend Carol decided that she wanted to try the dish. We eagerly awaited the results of her culinary experiment. The next day, we talked to Carol’s husband, Benny, and asked him how he liked last night’s dinner. In his best native North Carolina mountain drawl, he quietly said, “It was pretty good, but it shore did look kinda nekked, layin’ there on the plate with no sauce or nuthin’ on it.” After we stopped laughing, we decided that we finally had the name for our favorite family recipe.
