PASTA WITH FETA AND GREEN OLIVES
Bold, briny and tangy, this 15-minute pasta is full of personality. Olives are first slightly blistered in oil, drawing out their brininess, then crumbled feta is stirred into the pasta at the end until melty. Keep the feta chunky when breaking it apart so that the squares become soft and creamy, tasting almost baked. Castelvetrano olives are best here for their meaty texture and gentle flavor, but you can also use your preferred olive. Smash them with the flat side of a chef's knife - or even the heel of your palm in a pinch - then use your fingers to pluck the olive flesh off the pit. Any stubborn meat clinging to the pit is fair game to be eaten then and there.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook at a gentle boil until al dente, about 2 minutes less than the package instructions.
- Meanwhile, in a saucepan or skillet, heat the oil over medium-high until shimmering. Add the olives, cooking until they start to blister in spots, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, then add in the garlic, lemon zest and red-pepper flakes, stirring constantly for about 30 seconds, then let sit uncovered until the pasta is finished.
- Reserve 1 cup pasta water, drain the pasta, then return it to the pot over medium-low heat. Pour in the olive mixture, the lemon juice and ¾ cup pasta water, and stir well for 1 to 2 minutes until the noodles are coated in a smooth, glossy sauce, adding more water if needed. Turn off the heat, stir in the feta and let it soften and melt slightly. Finish with a grind or two of black pepper and a sprinkle of red-pepper flakes, if desired. Season to taste with salt, and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook it according to package directions.
- While the spaghetti is boiling, add the garlic and olive oil to a small pan. Heat the oil over medium-low heat and let the garlic gently cook in the oil, for about ten minutes. Adjust the heat, if needed, so the garlic doesn't brown too quickly. After ten minutes discard the garlic and turn off the heat.
- Once the spaghetti is cooked, drain it and return it to the pot. Add everything, except the feta cheese, to the pot with the spaghetti and toss it all to combine. Add 3/4 of the feta, reserve some for serving, and give it one more gentle toss. Serve right away with the extra feta on the side.

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients together and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour.
- (If you want the cheese to melt more, cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes- but it is not necessary to cook the sauce).
- Toss with cooked pasta and sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the tastier the dish will be. Look for fresh, flavorful vegetables, herbs, and spices.
- Don't overcook the pasta. Pasta should be cooked al dente, meaning it should have a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unappetizing.
- Season the pasta water. Adding salt to the pasta water helps to flavor the pasta as it cooks. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder or olive oil, to the water.
- Don't rinse the pasta after cooking. Rinsing the pasta removes the starch that helps the sauce adhere to it. This results in a less flavorful dish.
- Use a flavorful sauce. The sauce is what makes a pasta dish special. Choose a sauce that is packed with flavor and that complements the other ingredients in the dish.
Conclusion:
Spaghetti with Feta, Olives, and Garlic Beans is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of salty feta, briny olives, and creamy garlic beans creates a flavorful and satisfying sauce that is sure to please everyone at the table.
