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

6 Comments on Peaches Poached with Basil:
The syrup was heavenly. I am not sure if my peaches were not well-flavored to begin with or that I just don't like them that much, but I wasn't that crazy about the taste of poached peaches. It seemed bland to me, and than the syrup just made it bland and sweet. However, the syrup is to-die-for and I believe worth making just for the syrup. I am going to try to whip some cream with a couple spoons of this syrup just to see how it may turn out and try it with yogurt for breakfast.
A summertime homerun! These are wonderful.
These are absolutely delicious. We've had them with ice cream, plain yogurt and then with sour cream--all equally scrumptious!
Poached peaches can be tasty, especially when the peach is nice ripe/juicy and sweet,
I will try this one
Couldn't be simpler or better!
These are beautiful - we are in the thick of Texas (freestone :-) peach season so this goes on the to try list!!
