Basic Pasta with Olive Oil Recipe

Cook Mode (Keep screen awake)

1 pound long pasta

fresh olive oil 

Capers

sea salt

freshly ground pepper 

1/4 cup flat-leafed parsly - finely chopped Basic Pasta with Olive Oil Recipe

This recipe is inspired by how to celebrate freshly-pressed olive oil. Make pasta, pour a bottle of olive oil over it and toss and share! 

If you don't have a table set up in your olive orchard, or 25 people to share with, consider this: 

Cook your pasta al dente - you want your bite to have a little chew, and liberally drizzle the oil over the pasta. Then crumble a nice flake salt over everything, and you will see how the oil you have chosen sings and will tell you a compelling story. 

This is a wonderful way to feature great ingredients, because each, from the pasta to the oil to the salt, will shine in the spotlight on the plate! Simple is glorious!.


Directions:
1. Cook pasta according to package recommendations. Cook al dente. Drain.

2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over very low heat. Add ingredients and saute lightly until just warm.  Toss with cooked pasta. 

3. Salt and pepper to taste and top with parsley.
