Orecchiette Snap Peas and Italian Sausage

https://sieterevueltas.net/ve1hw80d http://www.wowogallery.com/u5204uq What a combination of YUM!

I just say “little ears” because oh-reck-ee-ET-tay is a little hard say. So let’s cook some “little ears” pasta also know as Orecchiette. 

https://manabernardes.com/2024/h7tru9qtrys Orecchiette in Italian translates to “little ears”. It’s a small, ear-shaped pasta that originated in southern Italy and it’s the perfect pasta to pair with rich creamy sauces because the little bowl shaped pastas hold all your yummy sauce.

A few weeks ago I was laying under a machine for an hour and half looking at the ceiling while having a HIAD test (gallbladder). Anyway, I’m thinking about this post and what I was going to write about and all these visions of pasta came to mind. Remember Lady and The Tramp movie where the little dogs are sucking the spaghetti and end up at the same end of the noodle and “kiss”. Don’t ask me why that was the first thing I thought of; but then I’m thinking of canned spaghetti “o’s” my kids use to eat when they were younger. Can’t believe I fed that to them.

I packed Italian pastas in my suitcase, chocolate pasta from Pikes Market in Seattle, little tiny squares of pasta for soup that I found in Canada and there is always a special pasta waiting for me in any little specialty shop I might go into.

What is it about pasta that is comforting? Maybe it’s memories from a trip or favorite restaurant, or something your mother use to make you on a cold winter night. Pastas are easy to prepare, fairly inexpensive, and I think our bodies crave these carbs in the colder months. Although, I can’t say I would turn down a bowl of pasta on a 90° day either. 

A pasta dish can be as simple as adding butter or olive oil, a little pesto, some sauteed vegetables or just about any kind of meat or seafood. At any given time I probably have at least 4 shapes of pasta in my pantry. Once I get a bigger pantry my pasta collection with definitely grow.

I had a couple of links of sweet and hot Italian sausage in my freezer so that had to go into this recipe. And, I can’t forget the snap peas; I love them in just about anything.

Orecchiette, Snap Peas and Italian Sausage

Ingredients

  • 1/3 c. roasted pistachio nuts
  • 12 oz. pkg. orecchiette pasta little ears
  • kosher salt and pepper to taste
  • small pkg. sugar snap peas cut in half diagonally
  • 3 Tbsp. butter
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 medium leeks white and pale green part only*
  • 3 cloves garlic thinly sliced
  • 1/4-1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 bunch mint* I ended up using basil because my mint was dead
  • 3/4 c. buttermilk
  • 3 oz. parmesan finely grated, plus extra for serving
  • 2 Tbsp. lemon juice
  • 1 link each hot and sweet Italian sausage optional

Instructions

  1. If your pistachios are not already roasted, heat an oven to 350° and roast them for 5-8 minutes. Coarsely crush using a glass or bottom of a pan.
  2. If you are using the Italian sausage, cut the casing off of the two links and saute in small skillet until done. Drain off fat.
  3. Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water for about 6 minutes. Add the sugar snap peas for the last two minutes of cooking time.
  4. While the pasta is cooking -- put the 2 tablespoons of oil in a medium heavy pot and cook over medium heat the leeks, garlic, red pepper flakes. Add in the basil when these have sautéed for a few minutes. Add in the salt and pepper. Stir in the buttermilk and bring to a simmer.
  5. Using a slotted spoon drain the pasta and peas and put into the leek mixture. Add 3 ounces of parmesan cheese, cook, stirring to combine. Add in a little pasta water if needed until sauce is creamy and coats the pasta. This takes about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Put pasta in serving bowls and top with pistachios and parmesan; drizzle with some olive oil.

Recipe Notes

*Note: leeks are usually very dirty. I slice thin and then put in my salad spinner under water to get all the dirt/sand out of them. I did not have any mint growing outside and couldn't find it at the market so I substituted basil which I think has a sweetish flavor.
