PASTA E FAGIOLI (ITALIAN PASTA AND BEANS)

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium heat, warm 3 tablespoons of the olive oil until shimmering. Add the chopped onion, carrot, celery, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and about 10 twists of black pepper. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables have softened and the onions are turning translucent, about 6 to 10 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes, stir, and cook until the tomatoes are bubbling all over. Add the broth, water, bay leaves, oregano, and red pepper flakes.
• Raise the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, and reducing the heat as necessary to maintain a gentle simmer.
• Use a heat-safe measuring cup to transfer about 1 1/2 cups of the soup (avoiding the bay leaves) to a blender. Add about 3/4 cup of the drained beans. Securely fasten the lid and blend until completely smooth, being careful to avoid hot steam escaping from the lid. Pour the blended mixture back into the soup.
• Add the remaining beans, pasta, kale and parsley to the simmering soup. Continue cooking, stirring often to prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pot, for about 20 minutes, or until the pasta and greens are pleasantly tender.
• Remove the pot from the heat, then remove and discard the bay leaves. Stir in the lemon juice, the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Taste and season with more salt (I usually add another 1/4 teaspoon) and pepper until the flavors really sing. Garnish bowls of soup as desired, and serve.
• Leftovers taste even better the next day. Allow leftover soup to cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for up to 5 days. Or, freeze leftover soup in individual portions and defrost as necessary.

BASIL PAN-SEARED SCALLOPS OVER PASTA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook pasta in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente. Drain, rinse, and transfer to a large serving bowl.

Arrange scallops in a single layer in a large baking dish or plate. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon dried basil over scallops so that only one side is sparsely coated with basil.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high, and melt one tablespoon of butter in the pan. Place 12 scallops basil-side down, and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until dark golden brown. Turn scallops, and cook the other side. Cook the remaining 12 scallops the same way.
• In a small saucepan, melt remaining butter with 1/2 cup olive oil, 1 tablespoon basil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Toss pasta with butter and olive oil mixture. Divide pasta onto plates, and top with scallops.

PASTA E FAGIOLI BASILLICATA

Steps:

• In a large pasta pot bring a large volume of salted water to a rapid boil over high heat. When the water comes to a rolling boil toss in the pasta and cook until the pasta is al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking liquid before draining the pasta through a colander.
• While the pasta is cooking and in a separate 3 quart pot (large enough to accommodate both the pasta and the beans and sauce you are preparing), heat the oil over medium heat. Add the diced carrot, diced onion, diced celery, the garlic, parsley, red pepper flakes, and cook over medium heat until the vegetables become tender.
• While the vegetables are sautéing, fill the empty cans with water and stir the water around so it can absorb any of the thick cannellini liquid clinging to the inside of the cans. Set the liquid filled cans aside.
• Add the reserved cannellini liquid, the water from the cans, and the bay leaf to the sauteed vegetables . Reduce the heat to medium-low.
• Add the beans and the al dente pasta to the pot while gently stirring to evenly distribute both. Lower the heat to simmer and simmer the Pasta e Fagoli for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding some of the reserved pasta cooking liquid if the sauce is too "tight".

PASTA E FAGIOLE WITH EXTRA-LARGE SEA SCALLOPS AND BASIL OIL FROM THE OYSTER BAR’S SANDY INGBER

Steps:

• To make the soup: Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring often, until the onion is starting to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, chicken stock, Parmesan, parsley, and pepper and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and simmer gently for 1 1/2 hours. Stir regularly. Turn the heat back to medium-high. Add the beans and tubettini and bring to a simmer. Again, lower the heat and simmer until the pasta is tender, about 15 minutes. Stir often, scraping the bottom of the pan. You can make the soup ahead. It will thicken as it sits, so add a little water when you reheat it. To make the basil oil: Put the basil, shallot, garlic, salt, and pepper in a food processor or blender. Turn on the machine and add the oil in a slow, steady stream. Process until the basil is finely chopped. Transfer to a squeeze bottle or a bowl. To make the scallops: Heat a slick of oil in two large nonstick skillets over high heat. When the skillets are hot, dust the scallops in the Wondra, pat off the excess, and divide them between the skillets. Sear them until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Turn and sear the other side, until cooked through, about 2 1/2 minutes. To serve, divide the soup among 4 soup dishes. Top each serving with 6 scallops and drizzle with basil.
