Orlando Bloom's Pasta Au Pistou image

Posted for Mom2Rose who's a big Orlando Bloom fan. The following blurb came with the recipe: "My role in the Pirates of the Caribbean series has inadvertently made me something of a connoisseur of Caribbean cuisine - and Dominica had the most impact on me. We found this amazing tree-house restaurant called Indigo. It's off the beaten path, and run by Marie Frederick and her husband Clem, who serve this delicious pasta recipe." NOTE: The original recipe called for "one tin of tomatoes, drained" but the Zaar recipe software won't accept that vague description. So, I guesstimated a 15oz can of tomatoes. Mom2Rose will be the expert on the actual can size because she's actually made this recipe! :)

This pasta dish was a disaster! The pistou sauce was too salty, and the pasta was way overcooked. I ended up throwing the whole thing away.

I thought this pasta dish was just okay. The pistou sauce was a bit bland, and the pasta was a bit overcooked. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different type of pesto sauce.

This pasta dish was a bit too heavy for my taste. The pistou sauce was very rich, and the pasta was a bit too al dente. However, I think it would be a good recipe for someone who likes their pasta dishes on the heavier side.

This pasta dish was delicious! The pistou sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the pasta was cooked perfectly. I also loved the addition of the sun-dried tomatoes and pine nuts.

I'm not usually a fan of pesto, but this dish changed my mind. The pistou sauce was so light and refreshing, and it paired perfectly with the pasta. I also loved the addition of the sun-dried tomatoes and pine nuts.
