ORECCHIETTE WITH CHERRY TOMATOES AND ARUGULA



Orecchiette With Cherry Tomatoes and Arugula image

Orecchiette are formed by kneading the dough, letting it rest, then breaking off portions to roll by hand into long skinny ropes. These are cut into pieces, formed into rounds and given the classic cup shape between the index finger and thumb, then flipped inside-out to expose the slightly more textured surface that will "grab" the sauce.

Salt
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

Tips:

  • Use fresh and high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your orecchiette dish. If you can, try to use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Cook the orecchiette pasta al dente. This means that it should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked orecchiette will be mushy and unpleasant to eat.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the mushrooms. If you do, they will steam instead of sautéing and will not develop their full flavor.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. This will also help to enhance the flavor of your dish.
  • Season your dish to taste. This means adding salt, pepper, and any other herbs or spices that you like. Be careful not to over-season your dish, as this can overwhelm the other flavors.

Conclusion:

Orecchiette with mushrooms, arugula, tomatoes, and brie is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. The combination of flavors and textures in this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this orecchiette recipe a try.
