ORECCHIETTE WITH CAULIFLOWER, TOASTED PINE NUTS AND ROMANO CHEESE
Orecchiette, or “little ears,” are the signature pasta of the Puglia region, on the heel of the Italian boot. They're most often served in simple, flavorful dishes like the classic broccoli rabe and Italian sausage, or this vegetarian take with cauliflower, toasted pine nuts, and pecorino romano. It’s a great example of how the sparse, rustic cooking of Southern Italy brings out the most flavor from a few simple ingredients.
