Serious Eats / J. Kenji López-Alt
In 2007 Mark Bittman wrote what I thought was one of the most brilliant columns of The Minimalist in The New York Times. Every good Italian chef knows that a bowl of pasta is all about the pasta; the sauce is there only to accentuate it. His simple idea? Who cares what Italian tradition says: Flip the proportions and let your dish focus on the sauce and vegetables using the pasta as a tasty textural accent rather than the centerpiece of the recipe.
It’s a great idea for anyone even omnivores but as a vegan I’ve found it to be a real lifesaver when it comes to meal planning. Could that braised broccoli and tomato pasta I made be better than braised broccoli and tomato pasta? It most certainly is.
