Como fazer Do Ahead Stuffed Shells

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Make the tomato sauce: In a medium bowl, soak 8 oz cremini mushrooms in 1 cup warm water until softened, about 30 minutes.
  3. Drain mushrooms, reserving the soaking liquid. Finely chop mushrooms.
  4. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, and sauté until soft, about 10 minutes.
  5. Add 1/2 cup Chianti wine and cook until almost evaporated.
  6. Stir in 28 oz canned crushed tomatoes, chopped mushrooms, reserved mushroom soaking liquid, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Simmer for 10 minutes.
  7. Chop 1/4 cup fresh parsley and 1/4 cup fresh basil. Add to the sauce and simmer for 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings.
  8. Cook 1 pound jumbo pasta shells according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  9. In a large bowl, combine 15 oz ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 large egg, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well.
  10. Stuff each pasta shell with the cheese mixture using a spoon.
  11. Spread half of the tomato sauce in a large casserole dish (or divide among smaller casseroles).
  12. Arrange the stuffed shells over the sauce. Spoon the remaining sauce over the shells.
  13. Sprinkle 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese over the shells.
  14. If serving immediately: Cover and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until heated through.
  15. To freeze: Let the unbaked stuffed shells cool to room temperature, cover tightly with plastic wrap and foil, and freeze for up to 2 months.
  16. To bake from frozen: Thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Bake as directed above, adding an extra 15-20 minutes to the baking time.
