ANGEL HAIR PASTA WITH ROASTED GARLIC
I got this recipe from the Kraft website, and it's a very good basic pasta recipe, especially if you like garlic (as we do!). To serve piping hot, you can time the cooking steps so that the pasta is cooking and the vegetables are sautéing during the last portion of time that the garlic is roasting in the oven.

Steps:
- Lightly spray each head of garlic with cooking spray. Wrap each garlic head separately in foil. Place garlic in a small baking pan. Bake at 400° for 45 minutes. Cool 10 minutes.
- Separate garlic cloves. Squeeze cloves to extract the pulp; discard peels.
- Place garlic pulp, mustard, lemon juice and pepper in food processor or blender container; cover. Process until pureed; set aside. (I have also done this by hand once while we were in the process of moving and I couldn't find my food processor, and it worked just fine. It's tedious, but it does work out OK.).
- Cook and stir zucchini and mushrooms in hot oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat for 3 minutes or until zucchini is tender-crisp. Add the pureed garlic mixture, water and tomato; mix well. Reduce heat to low; cook until thoroughly heated, stirring frequently.
- Toss the vegetable mixture with hot cooked pasta, and serve while still warm.

Steps:
- Hold a sharp knife at a 45-degree angle and cut the florets from the broccoli stems into a bowl. Chop remaining stems into small pieces and transfer stems to a separate bowl.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil with butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook garlic in the hot oil-butter mixture, stirring often, until garlic is soft but not browned. Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes and salt. Pour chicken stock into skillet and bring to a simmer. Stir broccoli stems into the stock mixture and simmer until tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Add a little water or stock if mixture starts to dry out.
- Stir broccoli florets into skillet and cook broccoli sauce until florets are bright green and slightly tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and stir in angel hair pasta. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pasta strands are almost tender, about 4 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large pot.
- Pour broccoli sauce over pasta, stir with a wooden spoon, and mix in 1/2 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Cover pot with a lid and let stand until pasta absorbs excess liquid and finishes cooking, about 2 minutes.
- Serve in bowls and sprinkle each serving with a dusting of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and a pinch of red pepper flakes.

Tips:
- Choose the right pasta: Angel hair pasta is the best choice for this recipe because it cooks quickly and has a delicate flavor that won't overpower the roasted garlic.
- Roast the garlic ahead of time: This will allow the garlic to develop a deep, rich flavor. You can roast the garlic up to 2 days in advance and store it in the refrigerator.
- Use a good quality olive oil: The olive oil you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Choose a high-quality extra virgin olive oil that has a fruity, peppery flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking the pasta, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the pasta from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick together.
- Add the pasta to the sauce: Once the pasta is cooked, add it to the sauce and toss to coat. This will help the pasta absorb the flavors of the sauce.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Before serving, garnish the pasta with fresh herbs such as basil, parsley, or oregano. This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
Conclusion:
Angel hair pasta with roasted garlic is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your pasta al dente or cooked through, with lots of garlic or just a little, this recipe is sure to please.
