'This is not a dramatic tale of overcoming incredible adversity. No loves have been lost, no hearts broken. This is a rather ordinary tale of finding myself and forming a ritual of self-care that I like to call Saturday Night Pasta.'
Saturday Night Pasta is therapy for the modern-day food lover, teaching self-care through the humble act of making pasta. Like the practice of meditation, making pasta by hand is a way of achieving self-discovery and mindfulness ... with delicious results. Including stories, mantras, step-by-step guides to making different pasta shapes and basic doughs, trouble-shooting tips and 40 utterly mouthwatering recipes (with dried pasta substitutes for the time poor), this is a cookbook to inspire and empower.
Pasta recipes include:
- Burnt butter with tomato and hazelnuts
- Basil pesto and ricotta ravioli with lemon butter
- Zucchini, fried capers and mint
- Pumpkin and cavolo nero lasagne
- Buffalo mozzarella cream with slow-roasted cherry tomatoes
- Mixed mushrooms with optional bacon crumb
- Smoked trout with lemon cream and pink peppercorns
- Chicken and clove ragù with lemon breadcrumbs
- Bitter greens with chilli and pork crackling
- Classic meatballs
- Bloody Mary lamb with kale
- and many more.
