Recipe Notes

Watch the show for more info and tips on ingredients and quantities. These recipes are recorded during a live show, so the ingredients are not precise but often made up on the spot and created with the audience.

This pasta keeps in the fridge for 2-3 days. It freezes well.

You can substitute cauliflower with broccoli, chicory with kale or spinach, for example. Try and pick vegetables that are in season. If you like the bitter of the chicory but want to make this pasta in the summer, substitute with sautéed radicchio.
