Food and cooking tips

Have a Local Food Party : Instead of counting time or distance, simply enjoy the pleasures of local food by organizing a potluck meal in which everything must be local. Keep your fingers crossed that someone will splurge on handmade goat cheese, and don’t forget some local wine, beer or juice. If you’re organizing a big catered event, the Society for Nutrition Education has a downloadable brochure to help you line up local food resources.

Ingredients And Procedures

1 lg Bunch broccoli -- trimmed

And cut into flowerettes 1/2 cup Extra virgin olive oil

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter

6 lg Garlic cloves -- sliced

Paper thin 2 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes

1 pound Large shell macaroni

Cooked

Cook broccoli to desired tenderness in lightly salted boiling water. RESERVE 1 CUP of BROCCOLI COOKING WATER. Drain remaining water from broccoli and cut into bite-size chunks; set aside.

In a medium size saucepan; heat olive oil over medium, add garlic slices and stir until lightly and evenly browned. (At this point, you can remove and dicard the garlic, but I always leave it in!) Add the butter, stirring until melted. Add red pepper flakes and simmer 3 minutes. Add the reserved broccoli water and simmer another minute. Turn off heat and stir in broccoli. Cover and set aside while cooking pasta.

Place cooked pasta into large bowl. Pour broccoli sauce over pasta. Toss to coat and serve with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and black pepper. YUM.
