Confess...what have you made after watching Food Network? |
|
I once saw this hot looking woman make Spaghettini with Checca Sauce and I rushed right out to buy the stuff to make some...
Yummy!
8 ounces spaghettini or angel hair pasta 4 scallions (white and pale green parts only), coarsely chopped 3 garlic cloves, crushed 1 (12-ounce container) cherry tomatoes, halved 1 (1-ounce) piece Parmesan, coarsely chopped 8 to 10 fresh basil leaves Salt and freshly ground black pepper 3 tablespoons olive oil 4 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, tender but still firm to the bite, stirring often, about 8 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine the next 7 ingredients in a food processor. Pulse just until the tomatoes are coarsely chopped (do not puree).
Drain the pasta, reserving some of the pasta water. Toss the pasta with the tomato mixture and fresh mozzarella in a large bowl. Add some of the reserved pasta water (about 1/4 cup) if the sauce looks dry. Serve immediately.

4. I worship at the altar of Alton! |

(OK, slight exaggeration, but I like the alliteration.)
I've made AB's pizza crust and I started using pastry tips to hull strawberries based on his advice. (It works.)
I also made borscht and dumplings after watching Tony Bourdain on "Cooks Tour" eat that in Russia. (I took the borscht recipe from somewhere else, and improvised the dumplings, though, because he didn't have recipes.)
