Pickled Pepper Pasta Recipe
Our Test Kitchen's pasta recipe is an easy weeknight meal
We've spotted them atop the The Optimist's fried clam roll in Atlanta; with avocado tonnato at San Francisco's State Bird Provisions; and at Chicago's The Purple Pig, paired with pig's ear, crispy kale and a fried egg.
Pickled peppers are having a moment–but you don't have to get all restaurant-fancy to enjoy them at home.
Try our Test Kitchen's ridiculously simple recipe instead (see the recipe): We gave cubanelle peppers a quick pickle–more of a vinegary sauté, really–then tossed them with gluten-free spaghetti, pine nuts and arugula.
Use the technique to add tangy notes to sandwiches, sauces and the odd pig's ear you have lying around.
Quick-pickled peppers, quick-pickled peppers: hard to say, easy to make.
