Linguine with peas

This is another last-minute dish, whipped up after my wife requested pasta to go with the chicken I was in the middle of preparing for dinner. I didn't have anything at hand that could obviously go into a pasta, such as sausage or herbs, and only had a bottle of passata and a handful of capers in the pantry. So I decided to forgo both altogether and created something new, with a little bit of inspiration from carbonara, and a little bit of inspiration from caccio e pepe. For a simple, spontaneous dish cooked in less than 10 minutes, it turned out really well.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Drop your noodles into a large pot of boiling salted water. When they're about halfway cooked, scoop out 1 cup of the pasta cooking water. When they're 2 minutes away from cooked, move on to Step 2.
- 2
In a medium bowl, beat together the egg and cream. Grate the parm and add it to the bowl, along with a pinch of salt and several grinds of black pepper. Whisk in half of the pasta cooking water, a few tbsp at a time to avoid scrambling the egg, until you have a thick, creamy, slightly chunky sauce.
- 3
Drain the pasta and toss in the shallot. Add the sauce and peas and toss again. If the pasta seems too thick, loosen it with a splash or two of the remaining pasta cooking water. Serve immediately.

Linguine with mussels and lemon Linguine with mussels and lemon
A few nights ago, I came across an old vid of Jamie Oliver on YouTube, making a trio of quick pastas. One was a super-simple lemon pasta, made only with lemon, olive oil, and parm. I made up my mind pretty quickly that I wanted to try it. However, as the time to do so came around, it occured to me I could jazz it up, mainly by incorporating some half-shell mussels I had in the fridge (I was saving them for gumbo). The end result was one part Jamie's recipe, minus the parm (because my imaginary Italian nonna won't let me combine seafood and cheese in a pasta dish), and another part mussels cooked vongole-ish style. The fusion was a perfect marriage of lemon, seafood, noodles, and deliciousness. Robert Gonzal -
