BEANS, GREENS, AND PASTA



Beans, Greens, and Pasta image

This is a hearty, rustic dish, which you can vary according to the ingredients you have on hand. It's an adaptation of a recipe from the Moosewood Restaurant Cooks at Home, to which I've added penne, but you could use your favorite chunky pasta. This dish is also one of the few in which I prefer whole-wheat pasta. Any white beans will do, such as great northern, cannellini, navy, or butter beans. Strongly flavored greens, such as escarole, endive, collard greens, etc., contrast nicely with the creamy blandness of the beans, the sourness of the lemon, and the spark of the pepper.

Three Way Garlic Pasta with Beans and Peppers image

Categories     Bean     Garlic     Pasta     Sauté     Low Fat     Vegetarian     Low Cal     Bell Pepper     Healthy     Gourmet

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 medium heads garlic, cloves separated and peeled
2 cups cold water
2 teaspoons salt
3 orange bell peppers
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
1/2 pound baby spinach
10 ounces campanelli (bellflower) pasta or penne
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 (19-oz) can white beans, rinsed and drained
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (2/3 oz)

Steps:

  • Reserve 6 large garlic cloves. Put remaining cloves in 2 cups cold water, then simmer in a small saucepan, covered, until garlic is very soft, about 30 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup garlic cooking liquid, then drain garlic in a sieve.
  • Purée cooked garlic with reserved cooking liquid and 1 teaspoon salt in a blender until smooth.
  • While garlic simmers, roast peppers on racks of gas burners over high heat, turning with tongs, until skins are blackened, 10 to 12 minutes (or broil peppers on a broiler pan about 5 inches from heat, turning occasionally, about 15 minutes). Transfer to a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap, then let stand 20 minutes. Peel peppers, discarding stems and seeds, and cut into 3/4-inch pieces.
  • Mince 2 reserved garlic cloves with thyme and remaining teaspoon salt using a large knife. Transfer along with spinach to a large serving bowl.
  • Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente.
  • Make sauce while pasta is cooking:
  • Finely chop remaining 4 garlic cloves and cook in oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until pale golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Add peppers and cook, stirring, 3 minutes. Add beans and garlic purée to skillet and bring to a simmer over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain pasta. Add pasta, sauce, vinegar, and cheese to spinach and garlic in serving bowl and toss to combine. (Add some of reserved cooking water if mixture is dry.) Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of beans for a more flavorful and nutritious dish.
  • Soak the beans overnight before cooking to reduce the cooking time.
  • If you don't have time to soak the beans, you can use quick-cooking beans or canned beans.
  • Add vegetables to the soup for a healthier and more filling meal.
  • Season the soup to taste with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices.
  • Serve the soup with a side of bread or crackers.

Conclusion:
