Linguini with Breadcrumbs and Kale by Hotplate Gourmet
Hotplate Gourmet made her ambitions very clear -- this linguini dish is to be a respectable weeknight dinner, something easy but good. Well, it's more than that -- we think it's terrific. Like an old Italian nonna, Hotplate Gourmet has you use the pasta water to help cook the kale and has you add breadcrumbs to the kale to fortify the pasta. You saute the breadcrumbs in oil, then add garlic and kale, and not too much of either. The garlic gently scents the kale and the greens add substance and sweetness, without making you feeling like you're eating kale for the sake of eating kale! You pull the dish together with some fresh olive oil and grated parmesan and you have a wonderful fall dinner. Next time we make this, we'll set aside the breadcrumbs after they've been toasted and add them back to the pan once the kale has been cooked. Their crunch is so great, you don't want to risk having them get soggy! - A&M

Thank you, Kitchen Butterfly. Your citrus-cured salmon looks lovely too. Like a gravlax, only lighter and more refreshing. Having grown up with citrus trees in our backyard, I'm a bit of a citrus addict and must add a squirt of lemon to almost everything (except my coffee).
thank you, Kitchen Butterfly. And that citrus-cured salmon of yours. Like a lighter, more refreshing gravlax.
I am a salad lover and this looks divine. The only thing I would do is a a chopped red chilli, but then I love chilli!
That sounds good!
Bookmarked! This looks so fresh and refreshing!
