Pasta with Onion and Saffron

L'Antro dell'Alchimista

Read DirectionsOpen In App

Description

In this delightful dish, cream sauce that is inflected with onions and saffron cloaks pasta that's been cooked al dente; then, it's garnished with thyme and grated Parmesan. The saffron lends its yellow hue, while the Parmesan imparts nuttiness and a salty bite. Collectively, the dish feels special even though it's not taxing to prepare. Use stracci or maltagliati if you can.

I used fresh, chopped basil and oregano to add brightness to this dish and doubled the cream, butter and cheese. I also minced and sautéed some garlic to add to the sauce. This recipe is a great base to top
