It started out like this. I went to the supermarket to buy a few vegetables to make a soup. Then before I could pick them up, I came across some fresh Orechiette pasta. Have always wanted to buy some.
So I did and spent the next half hour thinking of what to cook it with. Left the supermarket without the vegetables. OK, so no soup tonight.
I was convinced that it would do great with salmon. Then I wondered what sauce I should accompany it with. I walked a few rounds in the kitchen and kept seeing my pots of Basilic and Mint. *Lightbulb* Why not a Herb Pesto???
Basilic Leaves (wherever possible use fresh herbs)
Mint
Scallions
Thyme
Parsley
Rosemary
Dill
Garlic
Parmesan Cheese
Coarse Sea Salt and Pepper
Olive Oil
The Salmon I marinated them quickly with Honey and Balsamic Vinegar. Seared them on a hot pan (the idea is to have them grilled on the outside and pink on the inside). Serve hot with fresh tomatoes, the Orechiette pasta and the Herb Pesto. Yummy.
hoooola seeereeeeene...

RépondreSupprimerhey dearie, u know where I can get fresh pasta in Stuttgart? Wud like to try your recipe...they look yummy!
RépondreSupprimerOh yummy! Another great looking dish. Sorry I missed your question earlier, and yes, they are twins. :)
RépondreSupprimerYou'll have to try the Markthalle, I guess. Otherwise I've seen an Italian grocery at Ruit not far from the U-Bahn stop. Edeka does industrially-made fresh pasta though you may not find the Orechiette. I think can be replaced with the easy-to-find Penne.
RépondreSupprimerFor your pretty twins EMWK, peifu peifu, you must have your hands full and yet still find the time and energy to churn out such delicacies on such a regular rythm!
RépondreSupprimerLotus, I had this urge to stick my finger in your pesto photo to get a taste. They look that good!
