So, let's cook.

Thanks to the global climate change, our sage is already in full bloom:



So I made a real simple, fast but nonetheless tasty dish tonight: Tortellini with sage butter.
All you need is a handful of fresh sage leaves:


some Tortellini, butter, salt and pepper. I sexed the dish with some additional shredded gouda.

This is, like Aglio e Olio, one of the basic pasta preparations and perfect for you to check out new pasta. Preparation is not worth mentioning, just cook the pasta. When they are nearly done, melt some butter in a large skillet and fry the sage leaves in it for a few moments with some salt and pepper:



The butter should get a bit brown in the process, resulting in a so called "Beurre Noisette", adding to the taste of the dish.

Drain and add the pasta, swivel them in the skillet and add some cheese if desired -

DONE!


Enjoy and share yours.

Greetings from Bonn,

Christian

I enjoy making a sage butter like this in the summer when my herbs are fresh and drizzeling it over fried eggs for a nice breakfast.

Like I said when I worked as a ships' cook:

"Hunger is ze best sauce!"

This weekend, I'll start the 2007 barbecue season. It would be nice to see some pics if any fellow 3T is planning to do so, too.

As a former sailor in the US Navy I can vouch for that. :cool: LOL :D

heh, the quality of an army is measured by the shittyness of its canteens, right?

glad you liked the dish, Oscar.

The wife was in Rome recently and brought me some handmade pasta from the small manufacture Setaro, based near Naples.



Pasta from Setaro are considered the best dried pasta that can be bought today. They are quite hard to come by, so it was a pleasure to cook them. I made them with the same sage butter like sunday to have maximum pasta taste.









Enjoy (we did.)

Excellent. I make my tortellini basically the same way. I either use sage or garlic. Being married to an Italian lady, I get great pasta dishes all the time.
