Spaghetti with Garlic image

Categories     Garlic     Pasta     Quick & Easy     Parmesan     Lemon     Gourmet

Yield Makes 4 main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

About 1 1/2 large heads garlic, separated into cloves (about 30)
5 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
1 lb spaghetti
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated fresh lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Accompaniment: finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

Steps:

  • Peel garlic without crushing cloves and thinly slice lengthwise as evenly as possible (you should have about 1 cup; peel and slice more if necessary). Cook garlic in 4 tablespoons (1/4 cup) oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until just golden, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer garlic with a slotted spoon to a bowl. (Garlic will crisp as it cools.) Add hot pepper flakes to skillet and cook, stirring, 1 minute, then remove skillet from heat.
  • Meanwhile, cook spaghetti in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling until al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain spaghetti in a colander. Stir zest and salt into oil in skillet, then add spaghetti, parsley, and 1/2 cup reserved cooking water. Toss over moderately high heat until combined well, 30 seconds to 1 minute, adding enough reserved cooking water to keep spaghetti moist. Add half of garlic and toss. Remove from heat and toss pasta with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil and salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with remaining garlic.

GARLIC-BUTTER-WHITE WINE PASTA (SIDE DISH)



GARLIC-BUTTER-WHITE WINE PASTA (SIDE DISH) image

Categories     Pasta     Side

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb pasta
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
5 Tbs unsalted butter
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 cup chopped flat parsley
1/2 cup grated parmagiano-reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and crushed red pepper. Saute until golden, about 1-2 minutes. Add salt, pepper, white wine, butter. Stir 2 minutes, remove from heat. Toss pasta with sauce, parsley, and cheese.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh garlic, butter, white wine, and herbs will give your pasta the best flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too much pasta to the pan, it will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: Pasta should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it.
  • Reserve some pasta water: The starchy pasta water can be used to thicken the sauce and make it more flavorful.
  • Use a good quality white wine: A dry white wine with a crisp flavor will work best in this recipe.
  • Add the herbs at the end of cooking: This will prevent them from losing their flavor.
  • Serve immediately: Pasta is best enjoyed when it is hot and fresh.
