Ingredient IQ

Enjoy it fresh! Because our fresh pastas are so fresh, we recommend separating the strands before cooking so they don't clump together. After you add them to the boiling water, stir them a few times as they cook to keep them apart.

Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Soak the sun-dried tomatoes; cook the fusilli

  • In a small bowl, soak the sun-dried tomatoes in very hot tap water until softened, about 10 minutes. Drain and pat dry. 

Bring a medium sauce pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Separate the fusilli so the noodles don’t clump together during cooking. Add the fusilli and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain the fusilli, reserving ½ cup [¾ cup] pasta cooking water.

While the fusilli is cooking, prepare the kale and olives.

2

Prep the kale and olives

  • Strip the kale leaves from the stems; thinly slice the leaves. 
  • Cut the olives in half, checking for any pits.

3

Cook the sauce

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 2 to 3 teaspoons oil until hot but not smoking. Working in batches if needed, stir in the kale, season with salt and pepper, and cook until just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in half the sofrito (or more if desired) and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the artichokes, olives, sun-dried tomatoes, and reserved pasta cooking water and cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat, stir in the fusilli, and season to taste with salt and pepper. 

Serve

Transfer the fusilli and sauce to individual bowls. Garnish with the almonds, feta, and as many of the chile flakes as you like and serve.
