Langkah-langkah
-
Before You Start: Prepare my recipe for Homemade Shiso Pesto—it takes just 10 minutes to make. Gather all the ingredients.
-
Start boiling a large pot of water (I used a 4 QT Dutch oven). Once boiling, add 1½ Tbsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt and 7 oz pasta. Stir to make sure the pasta doesn’t stick to each other.
-
Cook the pasta according to the package instructions. Collect 2 Tbsp reserved pasta water and set aside, then drain the pasta.
-
Let the pasta cool in a large bowl for 5 minutes. Then, add 4 Tbsp Homemade Shiso Pesto.
-
Mix it all together. Add the reserved pasta cooking water to loosen up the sauce.
-
Season the pasta with ⅛ tsp freshly ground black pepper and ¼ tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt.
-
Finally, add shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano or Parmesan cheese to taste and toss it all together.
-
You can enjoy this dish either warm or chilled like a salad. Serve the pasta on individual plates and garnish with shiso leaves (perilla/ooba) and more shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano on top.
-
You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
