Steps:
- Finely chop arugula and set aside.
- Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Saute rice in the hot oil until it begins to look toasted, about 1 minute. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Pour in wine and stir frequently until most of the liquid is absorbed, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Stir in vegetable broth, 1 cup at a time, stirring almost constantly. Add arugula with the 5th cup of vegetable broth; pour in remaining broth, stirring almost constantly, until rice is tender yet firm to the bite, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan cheese and butter. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:
- 1. Blend the flour, egg yolks, oil, 5 tablespoons water, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor until a dough forms. Let the dough rest, wrapped in plastic, for 1 hour. Cut the dough into quarters and dust with flour. Roll the dough using a pasta maker on the widest setting 8 times, folding dough each time and flouring in between. Continue rolling the pasta on the narrower settings, without folding, until the second narrowest setting. Place the dough on a floured counter covered with a towel. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- 2. Pulse 1/2 cup walnuts, the ricotta, lemon zest, and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a clean food processor. Place 1 teaspoon of filling 1 1/2 inches apart along 2 pasta sheets. Brush the edges and between the mounds with water, and then top with another pasta sheet, pressing around the filling to seal. Cut out square ravioli, about 30, with a sharp knife and transfer to a floured towel.
- 3. Heat the butter in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat until the butter begins to brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the garlic, lemon juice, the remaining 1 cup walnuts, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Reserve the sauce.
- 4. Boil the ravioli in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 3 minutes. Gently transfer the ravioli with a slotted spoon to a bowl with the sauce, arugula, and Parmesan. Toss to combine, then divide among warmed serving plates.
ARUGULA AND WALNUT PESTO
The strong, meaty flavor of the walnuts balances out the astringency of the arugula, a good blend of flavors.

Steps:
- Brown 6 garlic cloves with their peels on in a skillet over medium high heat until the garlic is lightly browned in places, about 10 minutes. Remove the garlic from the pan, cool, and remove the skins.
- Toast the nuts in a pan over medium heat until lightly brown, or heat in a microwave on high heat for a minute or two until you get that roasted flavor. In our microwave it takes 2 minutes.
- Combine the arugula, walnuts, roasted and raw garlic into a food processor. Pulse while drizzling the olive oil into the processor. Remove the mixture from the processor and put it into a bowl. Stir in the Parmesan cheese.
- Because the pesto is so dependent on the individual ingredients, and the strength of the ingredients depends on the season or variety, test it and add more of the ingredients to taste.
- Mix with freshly prepared pasta of your choice. You may need to add a little bit of water or more olive oil to mix the pesto more evenly with the pasta.
- Makes enough pesto sauce for an ample serving of pasta for four people.
ARUGULA WITH PROSCUITTO AND BURRATA
Steps:
- Put the vinegar, mustard, egg yolk, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl or 2-cup glass measuring cup. Slowly whisk in the olive oil, making an emulsion. Place the arugula in a large salad bowl, pour on enough vinaigrette to moisten, and toss well.
- Distribute the arugula on 4 dinner plates. Place half a burrata, cut side down, in the middle of the plate and artfully arrange the prosciutto around it (I tear each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise). Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve.

Steps:
- Bring chicken stock to a simmer in a large stockpot over medium heat; cover, and keep at a steady simmer until ready to use. At the same time, heat oil in a large heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots to oil; cook, stirring occasionally, until shallots are softened and translucent, about 10 minutes. Add rice, and cook, stirring constantly, until rice is thoroughly coated and makes a clicking noise, 3 to 4 minutes. Add wine; cook, stirring constantly, until wine is completely absorbed.
- Using a ladle, add about 1 1/2 cups hot stock to the rice; cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until most of liquid has been absorbed and mixture is just thick enough to leave a clear trail behind the spoon. Add another 3/4 cup hot stock to rice; cook, stirring constantly, until most of liquid is absorbed.
- Continue adding stock 3/4 cup at a time, stirring constantly after each addition, until the rice is mostly translucent but still opaque in the center, and the liquid is the consistency of heavy cream, 20 to 25 minutes. The rice should be al dente but no longer crunchy. Watch carefully, and gradually reduce the amount of added liquid to make sure the mixture does not overcook; it will continue to thicken after it is removed from heat.
- Remove from heat. Stir in butter, cheese, and arugula puree; season with salt and pepper. To serve, mound risotto in the center of shallow serving bowls, and sprinkle with additional cheese. Garnish with arugula flowers, if desired.

Steps:
- Mix all the ingredients for the buraczki together in a bowl with some seasoning, then set aside.
- Melt 15g of the butter in a sauté pan over a medium heat. Add the shallot and a pinch of salt and cook for 8 mins until softened but not coloured, stirring occasionally. Stir in the garlic and bay leaf, cook for 1 min more, then tip in the buckwheat. Toast the grain for 1 min then pour in the wine. Once the wine has nearly reduced, add some of the mushroom liquor and stir until absorbed.
- Continue to gradually add the liquor and stir occasionally until all the liquor has been used and the buckwheat is tender but with a slight bite. This will take 20 mins.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining butter in a frying pan over a high heat. Add the mushrooms and fry for 5 mins until all the liquid has evaporated and they are golden. Don't worry if the butter goes brown - this adds a welcome nutty taste.
- Add the mushrooms to the risotto, give it a good stir and season to taste. Serve in bowls topped with the buraczki and some dill fronds.
