Recipe
DIRECTIONS:
Prepare the pasta by bringing 4-5 quarts of water to a rolling
boil in a large saucepan. Add pasta to the pan, and when water
begins to boil again, cook for 8-11 minutes. Pasta should be
al dente, or mostly tender but with a slight toughness in the
middle. Whisk all of the dressing ingredients together in a
small bowl. Cover and chill the dressing until you're ready to
use it. When pasta is done, pour it into a large bowl. Add the
dressing, then toss. Add the remaining ingredients to the
pasta, and toss until combined. Cover and chill for several
hours before serving.
Yield: 8 Servings
