ARTICHOKE, ANCHOVY AND LEMON PASTA
This recipe is a love letter to one of my favorite restaurants in Brooklyn. The chef does a play on pasta c'anciuova e muddica atturrata, which is Sicilian-style pasta with anchovies and toasted breadcrumbs, but he adds fish sauce for an intense umami boost. I first made this dish during the summer, when I crave pasta al limone, so this recipe became a hybrid of the two. The addition of the artichokes helps brighten it up even more.

Steps:
- For the pasta: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Season the boiling water with salt so it tastes as salty as a broth; it is important that the pasta water it is not too salty because it will help season the sauce. Add the pasta and cook for 2 minutes less than the package directions for al dente pasta.
- For the breadcrumbs: Put the butter and anchovies in a small nonstick pan and cook over medium-high heat, swirling the butter and stirring the anchovies until the butter starts to brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the panko and cook, stirring continuously and tossing, until the breadcrumbs are golden, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl, stir in the lemon zest and set aside.
- For the artichokes: Line a plate with paper towels. Heat a large saute pan or braiser over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and artichokes, cut-side down, and cook until the artichokes have a dark, golden brown crust, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the prepared plate and sprinkle with salt.
- Put the butter in the same pan and cook over medium heat until melted. Add the garlic and anchovies and cook, stirring frequently, until the anchovies start to turn dark brown and the garlic is very fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of the pasta water and stir to emulsify. Add the pasta and cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce coats the pasta and the flavors come together, 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the lemon juice and toss to coat.
- Divide the pasta into bowls and top with the artichokes, parsley if using and breadcrumbs.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions for al dente.
- Meanwhile, blend the drained artichoke hearts, 1/4 cup water, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a high-powered blender until completely smooth. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a large high-sided skillet or braiser over medium heat. Add the roasted red peppers, olives, capers and red pepper flakes and sauté until warmed through, about 2 minutes.

LEMON SPAGHETTI WITH ROASTED ARTICHOKES
Lemon zest, lemon juice, Parmesan and basil come together for a silky and vibrant sauce that makes this weeknight-friendly pasta sing. The addition of roasted artichoke hearts adds texture and complements the zestiness of the dish. There's no better time than a weeknight to embrace canned or frozen artichoke hearts, as they are immensely less work than whole fresh ones, and they roast beautifully - and effortlessly - in a hot oven. Holding onto that salty, starchy pasta water is key to ensuring that each spaghetti noodle is enveloped in the lemony sauce; use it judiciously to emulsify the sauce as you quickly toss it.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Gently pat the artichoke hearts with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Place the artichoke hearts in a mound in the center of the baking sheet. Add 2 tablespoons oil and 1 teaspoon salt, season with pepper and gently toss to combine. Scatter the artichoke hearts in an even layer and roast for 20 minutes. Flip the hearts and roast for an additional 10 minutes, until browned and a little crisp around the edges.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes or according to package directions.
- While the pasta cooks, in a serving dish large enough to accommodate the spaghetti, add the Parmesan, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the lemon zest; toss to combine. Add the lemon juice and the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil; stir to combine. The mixture should resemble a thick paste.
- Place the serving dish next to the pasta pot. Scoop out and reserve 1 cup of the pasta water. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of it over the Parmesan-lemon mixture; stir to thin out the mixture a little.
- Using tongs, lift out some of the spaghetti (with its cooking water still clinging to it) and transfer to the Parmesan-lemon mixture; quickly toss and drag the spaghetti in a circular motion around the dish to incorporate the sauce. Repeat until you have transferred and tossed all of the spaghetti.
- Add the butter, basil and 1 tablespoon of the pasta water to the spaghetti, and keep tossing until you have a silky sauce clinging to it. Add more pasta water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed.
- Top with the roasted artichokes, a little more black pepper and torn basil, and serve.
