- 2 tablespoons ricotta cheese
- 1/4 pound thinly sliced mozzarella cheese
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for pasta water

- 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, sliced thinly
- Heat oven to 500u0b0F.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except the pasta and butter. Stir well to combine.
- Drop the pasta into the boiling water and parboil for 4 minutes. Drain in a colander and add to the ingredients in the mixing bowl, tossing to combine.
- Divide the pasta mixture among six to eight shallow ceramic gratin dishes (1 1/2 to 2 cups in capacity) or place in a shallow (1-inch) layer in larger baking dishes. Dot with the butter, and bake until bubbly and brown on top, 7 to 10 minutes.
