PASTA WITH CHERRY TOMATOES AND ARUGULA



Pasta With Cherry Tomatoes and Arugula image

This simple, glorious dish, popular in the southern Italian region of Puglia, is an argument for keeping cherry tomato plants in your garden or on your fire escape. Uncooked tomato sauce is juicy and cool on a summer evening. The recipe asks only that you halve the tomatoes (quarter them if they are particularly large), then combine them with garlic, salt, balsamic vinegar, arugula, basil and olive oil. Toss that with cooked pasta, and shower with salty, firm shavings of ricotta salata. Arugula adds wonderful flavor (all the more if you can find peppery wild arugula) and a nutritional punch.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved if small, quartered if large
1 plump garlic clove, minced or put through a press (more to taste)
Salt to taste (I like to use a very good coarse sea salt or fleur de sel for this)
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar (optional)
1 cup arugula leaves, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon slivered or chopped fresh basil
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3/4 pound fusille, farfalle, or orecchiette
1/4 cup freshly grated ricotta salata or Parmesan (more to taste)

Steps:

  • Combine the cherry tomatoes, garlic, salt, balsamic vinegar, arugula, basil, and olive oil in a wide bowl. Let sit for 15 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add a generous amount of salt and the pasta. Cook al dente, until the pasta is firm to the bite. Drain, toss with the tomatoes, sprinkle on the cheese, and serve.

2 cups orecchiette or small pasta shells (about 1/2 pound)
2 tablespoons olive oil (preferably extra-virgin)
6 ounces portobello mushrooms, thinly sliced
2 large garlic cloves, minced

1/2 cup dry white wine
2 bunches arugula, stems trimmed
1/4 pound Brie, rind trimmed, cheese cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite. Drain, reserving cup cooking liquid.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and garlic and sauté until mushrooms soften, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and stir until beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Add wine; bring sauce to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tomatoes soften and release their juices, about 5 minutes.

ORECCHIETTE WITH CHERRY TOMATOES AND ARUGULA



Orecchiette With Cherry Tomatoes and Arugula image

Orecchiette are formed by kneading the dough, letting it rest, then breaking off portions to roll by hand into long skinny ropes. These are cut into pieces, formed into rounds and given the classic cup shape between the index finger and thumb, then flipped inside-out to expose the slightly more textured surface that will "grab" the sauce.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Salt
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, smashed
1¼ pounds large cherry tomatoes, halved
12 ounces dry orecchiette
2 cups, packed, arugula
Ground black pepper
½ cup freshly grated pecorino

Steps:

  • Start bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, heat 3 tablespoons oil on medium-low in a large sauté pan. Add garlic and allow to cook 10 minutes, until oil is fragrant but garlic has not browned. Remove garlic (save for another use). When water boils, stir in pasta.
  • Add tomatoes to oil in sauté pan, increase heat to medium-high and, when tomatoes start to shrivel and collapse, reduce heat to low and cook until softened but not shapeless, about 5 minutes. Stir a couple of times. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water.
  • Drain pasta and add to tomatoes, folding both together. Add some pasta water if needed for moistening. Fold in arugula and remaining oil. When arugula has just wilted, season dish with salt and pepper. Serve with a dusting of cheese.

Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
½ onion, diced
salt to taste
8 ounces spicy Italian sausages, casings removed
3 ½ cups low-sodium chicken broth, divided, or as needed
1 ¼ cups orecchiette pasta, or more to taste
½ cup roughly chopped arugula, or to taste
¼ cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion with a pinch of salt in hot oil until onion is soft and golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir sausage into onions; cook and stir until sausage is broken up and browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Pour 1 1/2 cups chicken broth into sausage mixture and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add orecchiette pasta; cook and stir pasta in hot broth, adding remaining broth when liquid is absorbed, until pasta is cooked through and most of the broth is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
  • Stir arugula into pasta-sausage mixture until arugula wilts. Ladle pasta into bowls and dust with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
