LINGUINE WITH GARLIC AND OIL
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. In a small skillet or saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the garlic, oil, and salt. Allow the garlic to simmer, shaking the pan occasionally, until it turns golden; do not allow it to become dark brown or it will be bitter rather than sweet. Salt the boiling water and cook the pasta until it is tender but firm. When it is done, drain it, reserving a bit of the cooking water. Reheat the garlic and oil mixture briefly if necessary. Dress the pasta with sauce, adding a little more oil or some of the cooking water if it seems dry. Garnish with parsley if you like. LINGUINE WITH FRESH HERBS: In step 2, when the garlic is done, toss in a mixture of 1 cup or more fresh herbs, whatever you have on hand. Try, for example, 1/4 cup minced basil or chervil leaves, 1 sprig tarragon, minced, several sprigs of dill, minced, a sprig or two of thyme, leaves stripped from the stem and minced, and 1 tablespoon or more of minced chives. Garnish with more fresh herbs, finely minced.
