Linguini with Raisins, Pine Nuts and Bread Crumbs
Vegetarian Times Issue: April 1, 2001 p.44
This pasta dish is based on a traditional recipe enjoyed in Liguria, Italy. To toast pine nuts, place in small, dry pan on medium heat and cook, shaking pan, until golden, 11⁄2 minutes. An arugula salad will make a nice accompaniment.
Directions
- Bring large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, in medium saucepan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add shallot and onion and cook, stirring often, until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium.
- Add basil, pepper flakes and wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Add vegetable broth and raisins and simmer until heated through, about 5 minutes.
- Add 1 tablespoon salt and pasta to boiling water, stirring to prevent sticking. Cook pasta until just tender, about 8 minutes. Drain well.
- Add pine nuts, bread crumbs and soy cheese to sauce; stir well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat. Stir in flaxseed or olive oil. Add pasta and toss to coat. Serve hot.
