Broccoli Raab and Italian Sausages

It was not in sunny Italy that I first tasted this classic Tuscan dish, but in a bleak and unfashionable area of Long Island City, New York. There, at a casual restaurant called Manducatis, broccoli raab and homemade sausage were felicitously paired—as they have been often at my table since. The addition of quickly cooked pasta makes this a complete and delicious meal in minutes.
