    Bow Ties with Sun-Dried Tomato and Scallion Cream

    Source of Recipe


    From "Food and Wine Quick From Scratch"


    List of Ingredients


    • 5 scallions, white and light green parts only
    • 6 Tbsp reconstituted sun-dried tomatoes, about 12 halves, or use drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
    • 1 cup light cream or half-and-half
    • 1 pound bow-tie pasta
    • 1 tsp salt
    • 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
    • 3 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley


    Instructions


    1. In a blender or food processor, purée the scallions and sun-dried tomatoes with 1/2 cup of the cream.

    2. In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the bow ties until just done, about 15 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water.

    3. Drain the pasta and toss with the purée, the remaining 1/2 cup cream, 1/3 cup of the reserved pasta water, the salt, pepper and parsley. If the sauce seems too thick, thin it by adding more of the reserved pasta water.

      Serves 4


      Prep Time: 5 minutes
      Cooking Time: 15 minutes
