Pasta Primavera
Recipe:
When you have a garden that produces more cherry tomatoes, zucchini, and peppers than two people could ever eat (we actually have to give them away we get so many), you make use of them by making as many nutritious things as you can. Since I'm rolling in tomatoes, I decided the season called for the most classic, garden-fresh pasta ever called Pasta Primavera. The dish is aptly named because primavera means Spring in Italian (and Spanish) and seeing how beautiful and vibrant the colors of the pasta is, you'll have the flavors of Spring in your kitchen whenever the mood strikes - be it in the warmer months or when the snow falls (the market carries all these veggies, of course - no garden required).

This video is coming in a little late so you probably aren't finding the best spring peas or favas now, but you can do this just as well with summer snap peas, green beans, zucchini, snow peas, or other types of fresh green summer vegetables.

Melissa Clark's Pasta Primavera from the New York Times:
Pasta water should be salted to between .5 and 2% (more or less depending on taste and on how salty the sauce and other ingredients are). It should never be as salty as the sea (which is about 3.5%). Here's some testing:
Here's a guide to how to properly finish pasta with a sauce and pasta water in the pan:
The original spaghetti Primavera, which Sirio Maccione introduced to Le Cirque in 1975:
Clio, where Felipe was a fava and pea-shucking master, does not exist any more, but it is now Uni, a restaurant I used to work at when it was still just a 12-seat bar in the basement of Clio:
The London restaurant where I saw the cooks toss out 95% of the asparagus (among other really atrocious practices all around) actually closed in 2019. It's now a bar and grill run by the same shouty British chef. I have no idea how well it is run now. I hope it is not as abusive.

FAQ:
Who is this lady?
Gina Petitti was born in 1935 in Faeto, Italy. It is in the province of Foggia in the Puglia region of southeast Italy. Her family ran a farm in Italy and she met her husband, Vito, in the same town. In 1970 Gina, Vito, and her 4 children immigrated to America. Gina’s husband passed away in 2012, but she is surrounded by a large family, which includes 9 grandchildren, and lives 5 minutes away from her eldest daughter in New Jersey. Gina enjoys making food for her family in the same old fashion ways as she was taught by her mother and grandmother in Italy, and also new things she has subsequently learned from family and friends in America. She also enjoys gardening, and being an active member of her local Church.
Where does Gina get her recipes?
Most of these recipes are from what she learned growing up in Italy, but some of them have evolved over time. She has also learned new recipes from friends and family in America. She is always eager to try new things.
Why is no one helping her in the video?
Grandma Gina doesn’t want help! Usually, it’s because we will slow her down or not do it “her way.” For the videos we only show her, but when the camera cuts we jump in and help form the cookies or prep for the next step.
Why don’t we buy her a new...?
Grandma Gina has a closet and garage full of new gadgets, spoons, forks, pots, etc… but she doesn’t like them because she is used to doing it with her old tools. She has fun getting her hands dirty!
Who is behind the camera and behind the scenes?
Grandma Gina’s retired son-in-law, Nick, does the filming, editing, production, and channel management. Her daughter, Maria, helps with food preparation, kitchen setup and fan support. Also, Grandma Gina usually has one or two grand-kids in the kitchen to help.
Does Gina read the comments?
We print out and show her how much love she gets from all her viewers, and she is very thankful and hopes you enjoy her cooking! Your comments bring her lots of joy, laughter, and inspiration to make more videos to share with you.
Thank you for watching, we hope you subscribe, and we will see you in our next video!

Pasta Primavera
RECIPE COURTESY OF GIADA DE LAURENTIIS
Level: Easy
Total: 45 min
Prep: 25 min
Cook: 20 min
Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients
3 carrots, peeled and cut into thin strips
2 medium zucchini or 1 large zucchini, cut into thin strips
2 yellow squash, cut into thin strips
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, cut into thin strips
1 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
1/4 cup olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon dried Italian herbs or herbes de Provence
1 pound farfalle (bowtie pasta)
15 cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
Directions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
On a large heavy baking sheet, toss all of the vegetables with the oil, salt, pepper, and dried herbs to coat. Transfer half of the vegetable mixture to another heavy large baking sheet and arrange evenly over the baking sheets. Bake until the carrots are tender and the vegetables begin to brown, stirring after the first 10 minutes, about 20 minutes total.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, tender but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid.
Toss the pasta with the vegetable mixtures in a large bowl to combine. Toss with the cherry tomatoes and enough reserved cooking liquid to moisten. Season the pasta with salt and pepper, to taste. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and serve immediately.
