Inside Oh Joy’s FEED Supper: How To Make Fresh Pasta With Family

Over the last month, Lauren Bush Lauren and the FEED Project team have thrown dozens of dinner parties from coast-to-coast. In the most delicious fund-raising plan we've encountered lately, Lauren and team have raised 2 million meals for those in need through dinners of every shape and size, from large L.A. gatherings to small family suppers. The FEED Supper premise is simple: throw a dinner so that someone else can enjoy one too. Every FEED Supper guest is invited to make a donation to provide a meal for someone in need. Gauged by the success of suppers like this one, hosted by Joy Cho of Oh Joy! and our friends at Heirloom LA, this year's suppers were a huge hit. We're sharing this fun and impressive recipe from the Oh Joy! supper for two reasons. One, the snaps of Joy's adorable daughter, Ruby making rainbow-colored pasta just can't be beat and, two, we couldn't resist the idea of getting our hands on Heirloom's simple, but gorgeous pasta recipe! Making fresh, ricotta-filled pasta at home with children may seem ambitious, but it's an idea we love for the upcoming holidays. It takes a little time and attention, but not nearly as much as one might expect. We can't think of a better way to spend a Sunday afternoon at home this fall. To make these vibrant pasta colors, Heirloom added a touch of spinach, beets or tomato paste to each of the batches. For a festive red pasta, just add one teaspoon of tomato paste to the yolks in the recipe and whisk briskly. Remember, the better the eggs, the brighter the yolks--one reason Heirloom's pasta is so brightly colored is that they use eggs from locally-raised chickens that range free and feed on worms, bugs, produce and some grain, which makes their yolks very vibrant. Learn how to make a gorgeous crostini station from Heirloom too. Check out our feature on making one of the gorgeous boards in the photos above here.
