PASTA WITH WHITE SAUCE. Serves 2/3~ 01 [ingredients]
> 12 oz pasta (shells)
> 1 bunch broccoli, sliced long
> 1 zucchini, chop on a diagonal bias and slice into 4ths.
> 2 cloves garlic, minced/diced
> 1 tbsp sea salt
> 2 tbsp goat cheese
> 1/4-1/3 cup goat milk
02 [preparation]
With pasta, it's pretty easy to weigh-in at around 1lb;
1-2 dozen pasta shells can weigh 12oz, or 375 grams.
For the purposes here, use 12 oz of pasta, and, for
every 12 oz pasta use 1 qt of water. Set the water in a
pan to boil. When it starts to boil, add 1 tbsp of
sea-salt, and then add your pasta. At 5 minutes before
the pasta is done (usually it takes pasta from a bag 10
minutes) start on the sauce. Begin by frying your
chopped zucchini in some vegetable oil and garlic (stir
to avoid burning the garlic). It really should not take
long if the pan is already hot (2 minutes), and set
aside. At this point, blanch the broccoli with the
pasta (that's still slightly undercooked). Back to the
sauce pan: add goat milk and wait until it's hot before
you add goat cheese (to melt). You probably want to add
thyme or tarragon or some pepper. You'll know it's done
when it behaves like a sauce. The pasta will be done at
the same time with the broccoli.
