Garden Style Straw And Hay Pasta With Bagna Cauda Sauce Recipes

BAGNA CAUDA

Steps:

• Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in garlic and cook until tender. Reduce heat to low. Mix in anchovy filets and heavy cream. Cook and stir until thickened. Remove from heat, cover and chill in the refrigerator approximately 2 hours.
• Return the mixture to medium heat, stirring occasionally, until bubbly. Serve hot.

HAY AND STRAW

Steps:

• Cook linguine according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute ham in butter for 3 minutes. Add peas; heat through. Drain linguine; toss with the ham mixture, Parmesan cheese and cream. Serve immediately.

STRAW AND HAY PASTA

Steps:

• In a large stockpot, bring salted water to a rapid boil.
• In a large saute pan over medium heat, add the olive oil and butter. When the butter is melted, add the onions and saute until translucent, but not browned, about 1 minute. Add the prosciutto and cook 1 more minute, stirring. Add the cream and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the sauce is just thick enough to lightly coat the back of a spoon. Season, to taste, with salt and black pepper. Add the peas and remove from the heat.
• Cook the pasta to al dente. Return the sauce to the heat. Drain the pasta and add it to the sauce. Toss well and season with salt and pepper. Finish with parmesan and more cracked black pepper.

GARDEN CRUDITES WITH BAGNA CAUDA

• Transfer mixture to a saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Remove from heat, transfer to a bowl, and let cool to room temperature. Stir in parsley; season with coarse salt and pepper. Stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons water, if necessary, to thin mixture to consistency of a loose dip.
• Crudites:Arrange vegetables on a platter or a large, shallow bowl filled with ice. Serve, topped with fennel fronds and sprinkled with sea salt, alongside bagna cauda for dipping.

BAGNA CAUDA

Steps:

• Place the anchovies, garlic, and oil in a fondue pot or saucepan. Place on the stove, turn the heat as low as possible, and cook, stirring constantly, until the anchovies break up, about 10 minutes. Do not let the garlic brown at all. Season with savory and pepper and place over the fondue burner or in a preheated earthenware dish. Taste and add a bit of salt if necessary. (You can prepare the oil an hour or two ahead to this point; reheat before serving.)
• Serve warm, dipping the cold crudités into the olive oil mixture.
