Ingredients:

  • 8 ounces cavatappi pasta
  • ½ cup basil pesto
  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • Kosher salt
  • Shredded Parmesan cheese, for serving

 

Directions:

  • Make the pasta: Start a pot of well-salted water to a boil. Boil the pasta until it is just al dente. Drain and place the pasta in a bowl.
  • Meanwhile, make the pesto cream sauce: Place the pesto, heavy cream, and ¼ teaspoon kosher salt in a saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until it just starts to thicken, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • When the pasta is done, add it with the sauce. Taste and add a few pinches more salt until the flavor pops like a backside on the dance floor.
