Ingredients

Directions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch trimmed broccoli rabe for about 1 minute until bright green. Drain and transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking. Drain well, squeezing out as much water as you can.
  • Place blanched broccoli rabe in the bowl of a food processor along with pistachios, garlic, parmesan and pecorino, salt, vinegar, red pepper flakes and pistachio oil. Pulse until finely chopped.
  • Drizzle in olive oil, a few tablespoons at a time, scraping down the sides of the food processor as you go. Add enough oil to form a thick but creamy paste (slightly thicker is preferable here, since you'll likely be thinning it out with pasta water). Taste and add additional salt and/or pepper flakes as desired.
  • Meanwhile, bring a fresh pot of salted water to a boil. Add casarecce pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Set aside 1 cup of pasta water, then drain pasta well and return to empty saucepan. Add aside 1 cup of pasta water, then drain pasta well and return to empty saucepan. Add pesto and toss until evenly coated.
  • Divide among serving bowls. Top with a few chunks of fresh buratta, microgreens and additional grated cheese, as desired.
