PASTA WITH BUTTER, SAGE AND PARMESAN



Pasta With Butter, Sage And Parmesan image

Like many simple sauces, this one takes less time to prepare than the pasta itself. Fresh, fragrant sage is my choice of herb here, but substitutions abound. Try parsley, thyme, chervil or other green herbs in its place. Or cook minced shallot or onion in the butter until translucent. You may even toast bread crumbs or chopped nuts in the butter, just until they're lightly browned. In any case, finish the sauce with a sprinkling of Parmesan, which not only adds its distinctive sharpness, but also thickens the mixture even further.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound cut pasta, like ziti
2 tablespoons butter
30 fresh sage leaves
1 cup or more freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil; salt it. Cook pasta until it is tender, but not quite done.
  • Meanwhile, place butter in a skillet or saucepan large enough to hold the cooked pasta; turn heat to medium, and add sage. Cook until butter turns nut-brown and sage shrivels, then turn heat to a minimum.
  • When the pasta is just about done, scoop out a cup of the cooking water. Drain the pasta. Immediately add it to the butter-sage mixture, and raise heat to medium. Add 3/4 cup of the water, and stir; the mixture will be loose and a little soupy. Cook for about 30 seconds, or until some of the water is absorbed and the pasta is perfectly done.
  • Stir in cheese; the sauce will become creamy. Thin it with a little more water if necessary. Season liberally with pepper and salt to taste, and serve immediately, passing more cheese at the table if you like.

EASY FRESH PASTA WITH SAGE BROWNED BUTTER



Easy Fresh Pasta with Sage Browned Butter image

This sauce sings, despite its simplicity. I love to experience flavor purity in excellent, if easy, food. It's all about the supporting cast -- butter, nutmeg, and balsamic -- working harmoniously to let the sage take center stage in the least diva-driven way.

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
1 1/8 cups "00" pasta flour, plus more as needed and for rolling out the dough
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon semolina flour, plus more for dusting the pasta before boiling
3 tablespoons butter
7 fresh sage leaves, chopped into chiffonade
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup hot, starchy pasta water (important -- see Cook's Note)
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, plus more for topping plates of pasta

Steps:

  • For the fresh tagliatelle: Bring a medium stockpot of salted water to a boil.
  • Combine the pasta flour and eggs in a food processor or the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and mix on low speed until a ball of dough forms. Continue to knead for 3 minutes, either by hand or in the mixer, so that the dough develops elasticity and silkiness. Dust the ball of dough with "00" pasta flour, seal it in plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before rolling it out, if time allows (see Cook's Note). Alternatively, you can let the dough rest for up to 24 hours in the refrigerator. The color sometimes fades after that, although the dough is still usable for up to 3 days.
  • For sheeting and cutting by hand, use a rolling pin to flatten the pasta sheet into an oval about 1/16-inch thick. Flour it generously with "00" pasta flour and roll it into a cylindrical tube from short end to short end. Use a chef's knife to cut the cylinder into 3/8-inch strips. Unroll and separate the strips into strands of tagliatelle.
  • For sheeting with a pasta machine, sheet the pasta to about 1/16-inch thick, and cut into strips about 3/8-inch wide. On a pasta machine, this is about the third-thinnest setting on the sheeter and utilizes the tagliatelle cutter.
  • If time allows, hang the pasta at room temperature for 30 minutes or until it feels leathery. If cooking immediately, generously dust the tagliatelle with plenty of semolina flour to prevent it from becoming gummy.
  • Add the pasta and 1 tablespoon semolina flour to the large pot of boiling water and cook for 2 minutes.
  • For the sage browned butter: Melt the butter over medium heat in a large saute pan. Continue cooking the butter until it turns a light golden brown, keeping a vigilant eye on it. Add the sage and continue cooking until the butter turns medium golden brown and smells nutty, about 2 minutes more. Remove the pan from the heat for 1 minute.
  • Add the nutmeg and vinegar and return the pan to medium-high heat, stirring to combine. Immediately add the pasta water and Parmigiano and whisk until the cheese disappears and the sauce starts to thicken, about 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Drain the pasta, toss the sauce with the pasta and serve immediately, topping each plate with additional cheese, if desired.

GREEN GNOCCHI WITH PEAS AND FRESH SAGE BUTTER



Green Gnocchi With Peas and Fresh Sage Butter image

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/4 pounds floury potatoes, preferably Yukon Gold or small Russets
1 cup regular all-purpose flour (or Italian 00-type flour, or fine semolina flour), plus more for dusting
1/2 cup chopped parsley, plus 2 tablespoons for garnish
1 ounce grated pecorino Romano
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups small English peas (from about 2 pounds in the pod)
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 or 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
16 to 24 fresh sage leaves
Salt and pepper, to taste
3 or 4 scallions thinly sliced, for garnish
Parmesan cheese, for grating

Steps:

  • Bake the potatoes in their skins until tender when probed with a paring knife, about 40 minutes. (Potatoes may also be boiled in their skins, then removed from the pot and slashed to release steam.) Peel the potatoes while still warm, discard the peels and weigh the flesh; you want exactly 1 pound. Force the potatoes through a ricer, food mill or medium-meshed sieve into a mixing bowl.
  • Add 3/4 cup flour, 1/2 cup parsley, pecorino, nutmeg, pepper and salt. Mix with fingers to form a mass, then knead very briefly to make a smooth ball, just one minute or so. Be careful not to overwork the dough or the gnocchi will be tough. Make a couple of preliminary half-inch ovals and boil in well-salted water to check the texture. Let them bob to the surface and cook for about 1 minute. If they hold their shape, proceed to the next step, otherwise add a little more flour to the dough. It may require a full cup of flour.
  • Divide the dough into 4 pieces. On a clean counter or cutting board, roll the dough pieces into footlong logs, approximately 1 inch thick, dusting with additional flour as necessary. Cut each log into 18 to 20 gnocchi. If desired, roll each of the gnocchi over the tines of a fork to make the traditional ridged oval shape (otherwise, random small pillow shapes are fine).
  • Sprinkle a baking sheet liberally with flour and line up the gnocchi in one layer, making sure they don't touch. Now sprinkle flour lightly over the top of the gnocchi and leave at room temperature, uncovered, until ready to cook. Fill a large, wide pasta pot with water. Add salt liberally and bring to a rapid boil.
  • Put 2 cups of water in a small saucepan for cooking the peas and bring to a brisk simmer. Cook the peas briefly until just done, then drain. Melt the butter in a wide deep skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and sage leaves and let them sizzle without browning, then turn off the heat.
  • Add the gnocchi one by one to the boiling water. Carefully stir as the gnocchi begin to bob to the surface. You may do this in batches if your burner is not strong enough to maintain a rapid simmer. Cook for 60 to 90 seconds, until tender (semolina gnocchi will take about 2 minutes), then transfer cooked gnocchi to the butter sauce using a wide skimmer.
  • Add the cooked peas and a little salt and pepper and gently toss everything together with a large spoon. Pour into a warm low-sided ovenproof serving vessel. If desired, sprinkle with 2 tablespoons Parmesan and run under the broiler till lightly browned. Garnish with the chopped parsley and scallions. Serve with plenty of grated Parmesan, and spoon some of the sage butter over each portion. Pass the pepper mill.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup oat milk
1/2 cup cashew butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 1/2 cups frozen peas
8 ounces whole-wheat fettuccine
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a bowl, whisk oat milk, cashew butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt until big lumps disappear. In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook garlic, stirring, until golden, 1 minute. Stir in milk mixture; reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, until thick and fragrant, 2 minutes. Stir in peas; turn off heat. Cook pasta as directed on package with remaining 1 teaspoon salt until just tender. Drain pasta, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid. Heat milk and pea mixture over low heat for 2 minutes. Toss in pasta; add cooking water as needed to thin sauce to desired thickness; toss to thoroughly coat pasta. Garnish with basil and black pepper; serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Make sure to wash the peas thoroughly before cooking.
  • Don't overcook the peas, as they will become mushy.
  • Use a microplane to finely grate the Parmesan cheese for a smoother sauce.
  • If you don't have a pasta maker, you can use a rolling pin to flatten the dough.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the pasta when cooking it, as this will prevent it from cooking evenly.
  • Serve the pasta immediately after cooking, topped with the butter, peas, and sage sauce.

Conclusion:

This fresh fettuccine with butter, peas, and sage sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion.
