Linguine with pancetta mushroom cream sauce; long sum choi – 22 January 2020
I decided to write up the recipe for this on the recipe blog supporting this one, though the original newspaper copy is still in my primary recipe notebook. I’ve modified it, and it’s good to have it spelled out in … Continue reading

Spaghetti alla puttanesca – 30 April 2019
D had in mind to make a Pasta all’Amatriciana, which he read about in the special (come-on?) edition of the new Milk Street magazine from Christopher Kimball. But we don’t have the meat for it, and we did have an … Continue reading

Spaghetti with filet beans and tapenade – 8 April 2019
We are celebrating the return of Gaeta olives to Berkeley Bowl with tapenade recipes. D originally found this in the Chez Panisse book Pasta, Pizza, and Calzone, and he makes it a lot. The tapenade is Gaeta olives, anchovies, garlic, … Continue reading

Spaghetti alla puttanesca – 29 March 2019
Knowing we were going to the Monet exhibit, and would be away most of the day and tired by dinnertime, D suggested Puttanesca for dinner. It’s relatively easy though this one had complications we were not expecting. Berkeley Bowl got … Continue reading

Leftover “Paul’s Lasagna”; Romano beans – 11 March 2019
When we had lasagna on the 8th, I tucked away the remaining part in the Corning Ware baking dish and re-covered it with (most of) the foil I used to cover it while baking. I just popped this into the … Continue reading

Pacchieri with hen of the woods and eryngii mushrooms in sage cream sauce; salad – 6 March 2019
[Filling in on the 26th] I had some brand new (ergo, never frozen) Boudin Blanc sausages from Christopher Lee, and wanted to make this pasta before I had to freeze them. I finally weighed stuff and recorded what I actually … Continue reading

Fettucine with grilled radicchio and endive, toasted walnuts, and gorgonzola dolce – 5 February 2019
D had said we had Roquefort to use up, and I didn’t check on that, but planned this dinner for the purpose. When I went to get it out of the fridge (at 6:15) it was not Roquefort at all, … Continue reading

Salmon and Scallops Provencale at Ned’s – 26 January 2019
B&L suggested dinner at Ned’s, and I found a really good meal there that was pretty light and veggie-rich, though still rather on the large side. The fact that I ordered an extra order of breadlets didn’t help. They were … Continue reading

Spaghetti with shell beans and bread crumbs; tomato-basil bruschetta – 3 October 2018
This worked out well. We had planned for D to use the cooked shell beans (the ones in narrow, whitish/cream skins) for a pasta. Then I remembered I’d actually be home just before dinner, as I was attending the Hitchcock … Continue reading

Spaghetti in oyster mushroom cream sauce – again; pear salad – 23 September 2018
When we had this on the 21st, D used the “stems” of the very delicate, white oyster mushrooms, and they turned out to be rather tough, such that they interrupted the experience of the pasta. He decided to buy more … Continue reading

Spaghetti with oyster mushrooms in cream sauce; salad with tomatoes – 21 September 2018
When D asked for mushrooms the other day, and I texted him a list of promising ones at the Bowl, he said Oyster or eryngii. I bought a lot of oysters b/c they looked really wonderful. Very clean and fresh … Continue reading

Spaghetti with cranberry beans and turnip greens; stuffed figs – 22 August 2018

Maltagliati with chives and bacon; salad – 24 July 2018
For the two of us for dinner, we need something like 2/3 of a recipe of Paul Bertolli’s pasta dough – which is irreducible b/c it has one egg – so I dry the remainder in some useful form. When … Continue reading

Fresh pappardelle with sausage and chicory; zucchini – 22 July 2018

Pappardelle with radicchio and bacon; four-lettuce salad – 9 July 2018
We had a little bit of radicchio to use up – about 2.3 oz, as it turns out, in good shape, all usable but the core – so I decided this pasta would be a good use for it. Amazing … Continue reading

Spaghetti with mushrooms, pine nuts, parsley, and pecorino; super-vegetabley salad – 9 June 2018

Fettucine with mushrooms and pea pods – 7 June 2018
I think I’ve got this recipe for two down, finally. Probably… For two people, one of whom (that would be D) likes large pasta servings (2 oz dried = 1 serving), I use 5 oz dry fettucine. These measurements should … Continue reading
Spaghetti and tomato sauce with mushrooms and sausage; filet beans – 6 June 2018
We had perhaps 2/3 of a can of diced tomatoes left from D’s puttanesca back on the 30th. I volunteered to use it up in this punted pasta. I just cooked onions and probably garlic (writing on the 11th), then … Continue reading
