Carrot Farfalle Pasta With Lemon And Herbs Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and return to a boil, stirring occasionally. Cook until al dente according to the package instructions, 8 to 10 minutes. Reserve about 1 cup of the pasta water, then drain.
• Meanwhile, add the olive oil to a large skillet and heat over medium heat. Add the garlic and shallot and saute until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the half-and-half and whisk in the goat cheese until smooth and warm. Season with pepper. Add the lemon zest and juice and half of the reserved pasta water and whisk until combined. Add half of the parsley, dill, mint and chives.
• Transfer the drained pasta to the skillet and cook until the sauce starts to thicken, about 2 minutes. Turn off the heat, add 1/2 cup of the Pecorino Romano and stir to combine. Adjust the consistency of the sauce with the remaining pasta water if needed. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil.
• Divide the pasta among bowls and garnish with the remaining Pecorino Romano, parsley, dill, mint and chives.

Steps:

• Make the farfalle: Lightly dust a rimmed baking sheet with semolina or cornmeal. Work with each sheet of dough just after it's been rolled. Using a sharp knife or the straight edge of a pastry cutter, trim to 3 1/2 inches wide, and then cut in half lengthwise. Using a fluted pastry cutter, cut each half crosswise into 2-inch-long pieces. Working with 1 piece at a time, pinch center with your fingers, forming a bow-tie shape; squeeze tightly to seal, and flatten slightly. Transfer to baking sheet. If not cooking immediately, let dry at room temperature for 1 hour, and then refrigerate between layers of parchment in an airtight container overnight.
• Stir together lemon zest, oil, and herbs in a large bowl.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons salt and the farfalle. Cook, stirring occasionally to separate, until centers are just tender, 3 to 4 minutes (if using dried farfalle, cook about 2 minutes more). Drain, and transfer to bowl with herb mixture. Stir in creme fraiche, and season with salt and pepper.
