In this dish, we’re paying homage to the vibrant flavors of summer produce by tossing sweet corn and plump, juicy tomatoes—cooked with just a bit of Calabrian chile paste for a kick—with sheets of pasta cut to create pappardelle (a wide, flat variety that originated in Tuscany).

Fill a medium pot 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Remove any husks and silks from the corn; cut the kernels off the cobs. Halve the tomatoes. Stack the pasta sheets on a work surface. Cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch-wide pieces; carefully separate the layers.
In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat the butter on medium-high until melted. Add the chopped garlic and corn kernels; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until slightly softened (be careful, as the corn may pop as it cooks). Add as much of the chile paste as you’d like, depending on how spicy you’d like the dish to be. Cook, stirring constantly, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until thoroughly combined. Add the halved tomatoes; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes, or until softened. Turn off the heat.
Meanwhile, add the prepared pasta to the pot of boiling water. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until al dente (still slightly firm to the bite). Turn off the heat. Reserving 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water, drain thoroughly.
To the pan of cooked vegetables, add the cooked pasta, a drizzle of olive oil, and half the reserved pasta cooking water. Cook on medium-high, stirring gently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until the pasta is coated (if necessary, gradually add the remaining cooking water to ensure the pasta is thoroughly coated). Turn off the heat. Stir in the mascarpone until combined. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve the finished pasta garnished with the romano. Enjoy!
