Categories     main-dish

Time 32m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

3/4 pound fusilli pasta
3/4 pound bow tie pasta
1/4 cup good olive oil
1 1/2 cups pesto (packaged or see recipe below)
1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, defrosted and squeezed dry
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 1/4 cups good mayonnaise
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1 1/2 cups frozen peas, defrosted
1/3 cup pignoli (pine nuts)
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup walnuts
1/4 cup pignoli (pine nuts)
3 tablespoons chopped garlic (9 cloves)
5 cups fresh basil leaves, packed
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups good olive oil
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Cook the fusilli and bow ties separately in a large pot of boiling salted water for 10 to 12 minutes until each pasta is al dente. Drain and toss into a bowl with the olive oil. Cool to room temperature.
  • In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade, puree the pesto, spinach, and lemon juice. Add the mayonnaise and puree. Add the pesto mixture to the cooled pasta and then add the Parmesan, peas, pignoli, salt, and pepper. Mix well, season to taste, and serve at room temperature.
  • Place the walnuts, pignoli, and garlic in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Process for 15 seconds. Add the basil leaves, salt, and pepper. With the processor running, slowly pour the olive oil into the bowl through the feed tube and process until the pesto is thoroughly pureed. Add the Parmesan and puree for a minute. Use right away or store the pesto in the refrigerator or freezer with a thin film of olive oil on top.
  • Notes: Air is the enemy of pesto. For freezing, pack it in containers with a film of oil or plastic wrap directly on top with the air pressed out.
  • To clean basil, remove the leaves, swirl them in a bowl of water, and then spin them very dry in a salad spinner. Store them in a closed plastic bag with a slightly damp paper towel. As long as the leaves are dry they will stay green for several days.

PASTA WITH CHOPPED PESTO AND PEAS



Pasta With Chopped Pesto and Peas image

This pesto doesn't call for a food processor, blender, or mortar and pestle - and it's better for it. Instead, all of the elements are chopped and mashed together by hand. (Pesto means "to pound, crush or smash" in Italian.) In Tuscany, this would be done with a half moon-shaped mezzaluna, but a chef's knife does the job, too. The result is a more textured mix with bright pops of flavor, like a sauce, herb salad and nut garnish in one. Basil and pine nuts are classic choices, but this version, "I Dream of Dinner (So You Don't Have To)," by Ali Slagle (Clarkson Potter, 2022), was guided by the pesto ratio in "Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat" by Samin Nosrat. It works with whatever soft herbs and nuts that you like and have on hand.

Categories     weekday, pastas, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt and black pepper
1/2 cup raw walnuts, pine nuts, pistachios, almonds or a combination
2 ounces Parmesan, plus more for serving
1 large garlic clove
2 packed cups soft herbs, such as basil, parsley, mint or arugula
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
1 pound curly pasta, such as casarecce or fusilli
2 cups (10 ounces) frozen peas

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. In a small or medium skillet over medium, toast nuts, shaking the skillet occasionally until browned (try one to see), 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to cool.
  • As the nuts cool, into a large bowl, grate the Parmesan on the small holes of a box grater (or pulse chunks in a blender).
  • Add the garlic clove and a pinch of salt to the pile of nuts and coarsely chop the nuts and garlic together. Add a handful of the herbs and another pinch of salt, and coarsely chop. (Opt for forceful, purposeful chops as opposed to soft, timid ones.) Toss and smash the mixture every few chops. Repeat with the remaining herbs, salting at each step, until a wet, coarse paste forms. Stir into the cheese, then stir in the olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente. In the last 3 minutes of cooking, add the peas to the pasta. Reserve 1 cup pasta water, then drain. Add the pasta and peas to the pesto and stir to combine. Add pasta water as needed to loosen the sauce. Season to taste with salt, pepper, more oil and more Parmesan.

Tips for Making Peas and Pasta Soup

  • Use fresh or frozen peas. Fresh peas are best, but frozen peas are a good option when fresh peas are not available. Avoid canned peas, as they can be mushy.
  • Choose a flavorful pasta. A short, sturdy pasta like penne or macaroni is a good choice for this soup. You could also use a long pasta like spaghetti or linguine, but be sure to break it into smaller pieces before adding it to the soup.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. Pasta should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. If you overcook the pasta, it will become mushy and ruin the soup.
  • Use a good quality broth. A flavorful broth will make all the difference in this soup. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or beef broth. If you're using a store-bought broth, be sure to choose one that is low in sodium.
  • Add vegetables to your liking. In addition to peas, you can add other vegetables to this soup, such as carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes. Just be sure to chop the vegetables into small pieces so that they cook evenly.
  • Season the soup to taste. Once the soup is finished cooking, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.

Conclusion

Peas and pasta soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying soup that the whole family will enjoy.
