Cooking Recipe Pasta With Broccoli-Pine Nut Pesto
Recipe Ingredients
Directions
Cook broccoli florets in large pot of boiling salted water until just
tender, about 6 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer broccoli to
colander and drain. Add pasta to same pot of water and cook until
tender but still firm to bite. Drain pasta; reserve 3/4 cup cooking
liquid. Return pasta to same pot. With processor running, drop pine
nuts and garlic through feed tube and chop finely. Scrape down sides
of work bowl. Add broccoli, 1/4 cup reserved cooking liquid, oil,
vinegar and crushed red pepper; process to coarse puree. Pour sauce
over pasta; toss over medium-low heat until heated through, adding
remaining cooking liquid as needed if necessary if sauce is too
thick. Season with salt and pepper. Serve, passing cheese separately.
