    Cook pasta according to directions on the package, but do not add any salt. Drain, rinse with cold water, and drain well again. Place in a mixing bowl and set aside. Drain olives, rinse, and drain well again. Add to the pasta. Add pepper, radishes, scallions, celery, carrot, basil leaves, and feta cheese. In a separate bowl, combine remaining ingredients and whisk together to blend well. Pour over the pasta mixture and toss to coat. Chill at least 2 hours before serving. Toss again and serve on chilled salad plates.
