Critical Success Points

  • Blanch the pea pods to retain their green colour
  • Cook the pasta al dente and rinse with cold water
  • Achieve the right pesto consistency (neither too thick nor too thin)
  • Keep the pasta slightly moist before adding the pesto

Safety Warnings

  • Be careful with boiling water when blanching the pods and cooking the pasta
  • Use a sharp knife to chop the shallot and parsley
  • Do not leave pine nuts unattended, they burn quickly
