How to cook deliciously - Fusilli with Rapini (Broccoli Rabe), Garlic, and Tomato Wine Sauce
1. Stage
Fill a saucepan with enough water to cover broccoli rabe, sprinkle in some salt, and bring to a boil. Stir in broccoli rabe and cook until bright green and just starting to become tender, about 2 minutes; drain and cool in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain well, and pat dry with paper towels.
2. Stage
Fill a pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once water is boiling, stir in pasta and return to a boil. Cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, but still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain well.
3. Stage
While pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat; stir in 2 roughly-chopped garlic cloves until they start to turn translucent, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper; stir in rosemary sprig, dried Italian herb mix, and crushed red pepper flakes.
4. Stage
Stir in blanched rabe, white wine, and tomatoes; remove rosemary sprig and bring to a boil. Mix in pasta, green onions, and 1 minced clove of garlic; simmer for 1 more minute, and serve topped with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
