Ingredients

  • 2 large ears corn, shucked Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 12 ounces campanelle, orecchiette, or other short pasta 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 bunch scallions, white and light-green parts thinly sliced (3/4 cup), dark-green tops thinly sliced on the bias 5 ounces baby spinach 2 ounces cream cheese, room temperature 1 ounce Pecorino Romano, finely grated (1/4 cup), plus more for serving

Directions

Strip corn kernels from cobs (you should have about 2 cups); reserve. Place cobs in a large pot filled with water, season generously with salt, and bring to a boil. Add pasta; cook 2 minutes less than package directions. Reserve 1 1/2 cups pasta water, remove and discard corncobs, and drain.

Return pot to medium-high heat; swirl in butter. Add scallion whites and light-greens and corn kernels, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; add spinach, both cheeses, and 1/2 cup reserved pasta water and stir until spinach wilts and cheeses melt.

Return pasta to pot; cook 1 minute more, adding more pasta water as needed to create a silky sauce. Serve, sprinkled with scallion tops, more pecorino, and pepper.
