ASPARAGUS LINGUINE



Asparagus Linguine image

I learnt this technique for cooking asparagus from one of the nonnas I met at the market in Rome. By frying, then adding a little liquid and reducing to a low temperature, you ensure the flavours combine beautifully. Creating emulsification at the very end gives a perfect sauce that's as much about flavour as it is texture.

Provided by Jamie Oliver

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

300 grams (10 ounces) dried linguine
300 grams (10 ounces) mixed asparagus (wild, white, regular)
4 cloves of garlic
2 dried red chillies
Olive oil
1 knob of unsalted butter
30 grams (1 ounce) pecorino or Parmesan cheese, plus extra to serve
1 lemon

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta in a pan of boiling salted water according to the packet instructions. Meanwhile, snap off and discard the woody ends of the asparagus, then finely slice the spears at an angle, leaving the tips whole. Peel and finely slice the garlic, crumble up the dried chillies, and place both in a large frying pan on a medium heat with 2 tablespoons of oil and the butter. When the garlic starts to sizzle, stir in the asparagus. Let it start to fry, then add a spoonful of pasta water, cover, and leave to simmer on a low heat until the pasta is al dente.
  • Using tongs, drag the pasta straight into the asparagus pan, letting a little starchy cooking water go with it. Turn the heat off, then finely grate in the pecorino and toss together until the fat, cheese and liquid make a natural creamy sauce--loosen with a little extra cooking water, if needed. Taste and season to perfection, then divide between your plates. Finish with a grating of pecorino and a little lemon zest, to taste.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

4 ounces pasta, use a short pasta like rotini or 4 ounces penne
8 ounces asparagus, pencil thin and cut into 1-inch lengths
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 quart water
8 ounces salmon fillets
1/4 teaspoon dill
1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
heavy duty aluminum foil
cooking spray
1/3 cup nonfat dry milk powder
2/3 cup water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon dry dill weed
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon light butter
1 teaspoon lemon juice, fresh

Steps:

  • Turn on your broiler and set your upper rack to the middle position. Let it preheat 5 minutes.
  • Set 1 qt of water to boil in a medium pot.
  • Take a 12" wide section of heavy duty foil and fold into thirds and then fold over the edges by 1/4"- this is what you will bake the salmon on (who doesn't like easy cleanup?). Spray the foil with a spritz of cooking spray, and season the salmon on both sides. Place on the foil and give the top of the salmon a spritz of cooking spray.
  • Bake under the broiler- this should take about 6-8 minutes. When its done, remove from the oven and set it aside to rest.
  • When your water comes to a boil, salt it and add the pasta. You will add in the asparagus during the last minute of cooking.
  • To make the sauce, whisk together the first 9 ingredients of the sauce in a small saucepan and set over medium heat. Stir occasionally. When it has thickened and no longer has a starchy flavor, take off the heat.
  • When the pasta and asparagus is done cooking, drain and return to the pan you cooked it inches Dice the salmon into bite sized pieces and add to the pasta.
  • Just before adding the sauce to the pasta, stir in the lemon juice and light butter. Dump this into the pan with the pasta, asparagus and salmon, toss gently until the pasta is completely coated with sauce.
  • Serve!

CREAMY ASPARAGUS PASTA



Creamy Asparagus Pasta image

In this quick pasta dinner, umami-rich seaweed stars twice: first, in the form of dasima (dried kelp), which seasons the pasta water and sauce with seaside savor; second, as gim (roasted seaweed), which lends deep nuttiness and some salty crunch, too. The pasta finishes cooking in a blush of heavy cream and a splash of the dasima broth, transforming into a dreamy emulsion balanced by rice vinegar. In this recipe's final moments, a rich glug of sesame oil glosses the chewy rigatoni and echoes the toasted flavor of the gim, which sings.

Provided by Eric Kim

Categories     weeknight, pastas

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

20 grams gim, often labeled as roasted seaweed
2 (4-inch) squares dasima or kombu (dried kelp)
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 pound rigatoni
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 small red onion, halved and thinly sliced
2 large garlic cloves, finely grated
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1/2 pound asparagus, thinly sliced at an angle
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
Flaky sea salt, for serving

Steps:

  • Fold the gim in half and, with very sharp kitchen shears or a chef's knife, slice into thin strips. Set aside for serving.
  • In a large pot, combine 1 dasima square with 8 cups cold tap water. Bring the water to a boil and season with the kosher salt. Tumble in the pasta and cook for half the time the package tells you is al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water. Drain the pasta, then add it back to the pot. (Discard the dasima.)
  • Add the remaining dasima square, cream, red onion, garlic, black pepper and reserved pasta water to the pasta. Bring to a boil over high heat, then immediately reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Stirring occasionally, cook the pasta until the onion-infused cream has thickened significantly, thinly coating the noodles, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat. Add the vinegar and asparagus, and stir to combine for 1 minute. The residual heat from the pasta will gently cook the asparagus to tender-crisp. Stir in the sesame oil and season with more black pepper, if desired. Divide the pasta among serving dishes, discarding the dasima, and shower with the reserved gim and sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Serve immediately, before the gim wilts and turns soggy.
