Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons Sherry vinegar or white wine vinegar
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 1/2 pounds multicolored cherry tomatoes, halved (quartered if large)
3 ears corn, shucked
1 1/2 pounds medium zucchini
8 to 9 ounces dried egg pappardelle or dried egg fettuccine
1/4 pound sugar snap peas, strings discarded and peas halved diagonally
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion (optional)
1 cup small basil leaves, torn if large
1/2 cup mint leaves
1/3 cup snipped chives
Accompaniment: Shavings of Parmesan made with vegetable peeler
Special Equipment
A good vegetable peeler, preferably V- or U-shaped

Steps:

  • Bring a 6- to 8-quart pot of well-salted water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, mince and mash garlic to a paste with 1/2 teaspoon salt, then stir together with vinegar, oil, and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Add tomatoes and stir gently, then set aside.
  • Cook corn in boiling water until tender, 4-6 minutes, then remove with tongs and cool.
  • While corn cools, peel lengthwise ribbons from 1 side of a zucchini with vegetable peeler into another bowl, stopping when you get to seedy core. Turn zucchini a quarter-turn, then peel more ribbons, stopping at core. Repeat on remaining 2 sides of zucchini (you will end up with rectangular-shaped cores). Reserve cores for another use (such as soup).
  • Cut corn from cobs; add corn to tomatoes.
  • Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Just before pasta is done, stir in zucchini ribbons and snap peas and cook 15 seconds. Drain pasta and vegetables together in a large colander and add to tomato mixture with onion (if using), then toss gently.
  • Add herbs and toss gently again.

SUMMER PAPPARDELLE WITH TOMATOES, ARUGULA, AND PARMESAN



Summer Pappardelle With Tomatoes, Arugula, and Parmesan image

This light recipe comes from Cooking Light. Be sure to save some of your water when you drain the pasta to use if your cooling pasta clumps together. I would imagine you could use regular cherry tomatoes if you can't find the yellow tear-drops but the different colors would be very pretty. Cooking time does not include time to cook pasta.

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.

1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved if small, quartered if large

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)
