What's for Dinner, Mon., April 22, 2024

[Probatim]

1. Pasta Aglio e Olio with a few tweaks...

The tweaks include several items foraged this weekend.

My son came across several herds of free range morels on Sunday and I scooped up several bunches of late season ramps. We're meeting after work to trade our finds.

I plan on chopping both morels and ramps and sautéing in olive oil with red pepper flakes and eye-talian seasoning.

After I'm happy with their doneness, I'll add angel hair pasta before serving with cracked black pepper, Kosher salt, and freshly grated Romano cheese.

ETA - he's making morel pierogies this evening. I haven't asked his plans for the filling (assume it's morels/potatoes/cheese) but I'll add that later.

We also discussed morel raviolis but I think that'll wait until next weekend - assuming we still have some.
