Pasta With Pesto And Parmesan Recipes
PASTA WITH MINT AND PARMESAN
The pairing of pasta with mint and Parmesan is a good one. There is something about the lightly assaultive yet somehow sweet nature of mint that is unlike any other herb. Older cuisines use it occasionally, but it is rarely seen as a major player. In this dish, however, softened by butter and cheese, mint converts a basic but undeniably heavy combination into an easy yet complex pasta dish best described as refreshing. To the inevitable question, Can I use olive oil instead of butter? my answer is that you can, but you will completely change the nature of the dish; it won't be bad, but it won't be as good. Better, I think, to cut the butter back to two tablespoons. But because this sauce is cut with the pasta cooking water, the butter is spread nicely throughout, and it really isn't a huge amount per person.

JUICY PESTO PASTA!
Recipe video above. This is how to make a great pesto pasta that's slick with pesto sauce without adding tons and tons of oil which makes it overly oily. The secret is using the pasta cooking water - it emulsifies with the oil in the pesto which makes it cling to every strand of pasta. A technique used in every Italian household! Make this with homemade pesto for the best flavour.

- Bring a pot of water to rolling boil. Season with salt. Add pasta and cook as per package directions. While pasta is cooking, heat 1/2 tbsp oil in a saute pan. When oil is hot, add onion strings and cook until brown and caramelized (about 4-5 minutes). Drain on paper towel and set aside.
- Wipe excess oil from the saute pan, and keep heat on. (Since pesto already has oil, I don't use additional oil to cook pesto.) Add pesto and heat until warm through (about 2-3 minutes). Don't cook for long or pesto turns very dark and does not taste fresh.
- Add cooked pasta, half of the parmesan cheese, then coat pasta in the pesto-cream sauce gently.

- Pour flour into a mound on a clean surface. Make a well in the middle and add egg yolks, dry white wine, and salt. With your hands or a fork, start working the flour in with the eggs and wine. When dough starts to come together, start kneading. Add more flour or wine to adjust texture to a silky, smooth dough. Cover with a tea towel and let rest for about 30 minutes.
- With a rolling pin or pasta roller, roll dough out to an three millimeter thickness. Cut five centimeter circles from dough using a corzetti stamp or the bottom of a glass. If using a corzetti stamp, press each circle to emboss the design. Let pasta coins set for 15-20 minutes.
- Add pasta coins to a pot of salted, boiling water. Cook for six to eight minutes, or until al dente. Drain pasta, reserving some pasta water.
- Heat a skillet with olive oil. Add cooked pasta coins, tossing to coat in oil. Add a couple tablespoons of pasta water and toss. Add Genoa-style Pesto (see recipe) and toss. Transfer pasta coins to serving dish and top with extra pesto, fresh grated parmesan, and ground black pepper.

- Cook pasta as per package instructions. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, draining the rest. Set aside.
- While pasta is cooking, get all ingredients ready. Preheat large deep skillet or a dutch oven on medium heat, add olive oil and garlic. Sauté for 30 seconds, stirring frequently.
- Add 1 tbsp pesto, tomatoes and stir. Cook for 1 - 2 minutes, stir and cook another 1 - 2 minutes. Move to one side of the skillet and make sure the empty side of is positioned directly over heat. Add 1 tbsp pesto and broccoli, stir and cook for 4 minutes, stirring once.
- Remove skillet from heat and add remaining 1/4 cup pesto, sun dried tomatoes, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, pasta and pasta water. Stir gently and let flavours marinate for a few minutes. Do not cover because broccoli will become a mushy mess. I also like to add half Parmesan cheese in this step and the other half right before serving. Serve hot.
