Evviva! (Yippee!) I
tried another new food and, Italian or not, you’re gonna love this Authentic
Italian Homemade Pasta from Marigold Pasta. I purchased three kinds. The Angel Hair, Spinach Fettuccini and Tomato Basil
Fettuccini. I was going to wait
and tell you about all three at once, but I can’t. I tried the Spinach Fettuccini today for lunch.
First, I start the pot of water boiling and add a teaspoon or two of chicken granules to make it a light, savory chicken broth. I always add a jigger of olive oil and salt to season things up a bit too.
Then, to top the pasta I create a
fry pan full of goodies. I use
olive oil to simmer a bit of onion and garlic (surprise) until soft. Add basil to suit your taste. Here’s a trick… I always have a “tube” of basil and
other herbs in the fridge. It’s
not as good as fresh, but I like it better than the dried. Then artichokes, mushrooms and tomatoes
go in for the “all swim”. Top
again with more olive oil, salt, and pepper. After that has simmered the water should be boiling and
calling for the pasta. Lastly, I
throw ½ stick of butter on top of my goodies in the fry pan and cover it before
answering the pot.
It is transferred to a colander for a brief minute, long
enough for me to get the other ½ stick of butter into the pot and melted before
tossing the pasta back into the butter.
A couple of go-a-rounds with the Italian Spanking Stick (otherwise known
as a wooden spoon) and it is ready.
Finally, put a layer of Spinach
Fettuccini Pasta into a pasta bowl, give the fry pan goodies a swirl to
integrate the butter and scoop some onto the pasta! Top with parmigiano reggiano cheese if you’d like and
mangia!!!
I’ll keep you posted on the other
two AND the lasagna, which I will be purchasing next time from Marigold Pasta!
