Farm To Table Cooking Basics: Pasta on a Time Crunch

Cook the EASIEST, BEST 20 Min Pasta You've Ever Had!! This video is brought to you by Ariat Save 10% off your first order - bit.ly/3iGXV9V shop Anne’s Favorites - bit.ly/31RmUkM
One of the questions I get asked all the time is how the heck to use all the garden produce we produce in the summer, so I wanted to share some of my quick, painless summer dinner ideas so you can cook your tomatoes, your basil, oregano, garlic, and other herbs, to use those delicious summer fruits and veggies before they spoil, even when you're busy. This 20 minute italian garden vegetable pasta is one of my favorite ways to use my ripe tomatoes and really enhance their flavor. Making good, authentic, homemade Italian tomato sauce from scratch is not as intimidating as it seems. People wonder what pasta to use, what tomatoes to use for their sauce, are worried the sauce takes too long to make, but really, all you need is a handful of whatever you've got on hand, two pots, and twenty minutes. Use these tips to make better pasta at home!
I know I'm always toeing the line between growing what we need and having time to harvest, prepare, cook and preserve it in the peak of the season so we can preserve these summer flavors for the winter months when the garden produce is less abundant. Because we all know that summer is one of the busiest times of year, and all the garden produce seems to be ready at the same time! Making delicious gourmet pasta doesn't take a degree in food science, it just takes a few garden ingredients and 20 minutes. These easy garden-fresh recipes will help you get quick gourmet dinners on the table in record time. Whether it's a weeknight dinner or you're trying to impress your guests, you can make these healthy and comforting meals using whatever ingredients you happen to have.

Mom was Sicilian. She put a little red wine and a bit of sugar in the sauce.She used very little garlic. There are many variations of sauce. Italian cooking is mostly using whatever is available. Grandfather had an ulcer snd wouldn’t eat tomatoes. He ate pasta con ricotta every day for lunch. Very nice Frank

You've said before that you like your woodworking tools really sharp. You may want to apply that to your kitchen tools as well. The knife you used for the tomatoes may need some attention, the cleaver looks fine judging by the results. The end-result looks really tasty.

Hi Anne, with this new (eat healthy and no salt) brigade it is nice to see someone using salt in there cooking. I eat out a lot and nearly always have to add a load salt as it has not been used in the cooking. My girlfriend loves “McDonalds” I hate it but I have to sometimes get one as a compromise and again no salt, it is ruining food, it should have flavour and salt gives it flavour.

[@Mr_Mooo]

[@AnneofAllTrades]

[@johnm7469]

That dish looks SO delicious. The salt in the water also lowers the boiling point of water so it will boil a lil faster. Confession: I watched the look on your when you took the first bite a second time :-)

[@sdspivey]

Salt **increases** the boiling point, but so slightly it isn't measurable at home.

[@rpnp2]

When salt is added, it makes it harder for the water molecules to escape from the pot and enter the gas phase, which happens when water boils

[@johnm7469]

You guys are focused my wrong comment. lol chemists :-)

[@thomascdurham9130]

Hi Anne, I season my pasta water too for that very reason but I use a lot more than salt. Also I had a little oil or butter to prevent my pasta from sticking to each other, :)

[@AnneofAllTrades]

I think the butter/oil in the water is a myth, because oil and water don't mix, so it just makes oily water. But hey, who am I to argue with more butter in anything?

[@thomascdurham9130]

@@AnneofAllTrades haha hahaha.

[@thomascdurham9130]

..

[@thomascdurham9130]

You're right it doesn't mix with water, it clings to the side of the spaghetti. To get the best affect, take a cooking fork, separate by twisting all parallel spaghetti apart and gently stir. Once you see them clearly separated you can turn away for other preparations cooking to pasta meets your desired texture. 😊💖

The butter still burns - even mixed with oil. It's the temperature that makes the difference. HOT tip, though. If you just use clarified butter, you're good to go. It's got a smoke point similar to olive oil. I even use it to pop popcorn (can't do that with plain butter).

I can remember when KZbin had NO commercials.

[@AnneofAllTrades]

I didn't realize KZbin had started adding mid-roll ads in my videos, I've removed them. I will say though that another perspective besides getting annoyed by the ads, is that KZbin, as a platform, has provided a small way to generate revenue for the creators spending untold hours and using their own financial resources creating these videos and uploading them for viewers like you to watch for free. I think it would surprise most folks to know that an average video takes me between 40 and 100 hours to create, costs about $1000 to make, and the ad revenue generally only amounts to about $60 per video.
