Preparation:
* Note: See the "Green Pasta"recipe which is included in this collection. Substitute steamed nettles for steamed spinach, or add 1/2 cup dried nettles and increase eggs by 1.
Heat 6 quarts water to boiling in a spaghetti pot and add 2 tablespoons salt.
In a 10-inch to 12-inch sauté pan, cook sausage over low heat until fat begins to render, about 6 minutes. Turn heat up to medium and cook until most of fat from sausage has rendered out and sausage is golden-brown. Add kale and chicken stock and cook until very soft, about 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and remove from heat.
Drop pasta into boiling water and cook until tender (about 1 minute). Drain pasta and toss into sauté pan with kale and sausage. Cook over high heat until coated, about 1 minute. Add grated cheese and toss to mix. Pour into heated serving bowl and serve.
