Homemade Farfalle

Homemade Farfalle
Serves 2

1 lb. fresh pasta
1 stick butter, cubbed
1/2 cup water
1 bunch
1 bunch chives or parsley, finely chopped
1 lemon, zested
Parmesan or pecorino cheese

Cut pasta into 1” x 2 “ pieces and pinch in the middle to create a bow-tie. Heat 1/2 cup of water in a saucepan and when simmering, slowly whisk in cubes of butter until melted and silky. This may take a few minutes, the idea is to maintain the heat of the water and emulsify the butter into the water.

Add pasta and cook for a minute or two, tossing gently with a spoon. Season with salt, lemon zest, herbs and desired amount of cheese. Serve immediately.

12" Copper Skillet // $280

This pan was given to me by my mentor and boss, Giada… Is copper worth the price tag? I think so: it conducts heat beautifully and it sure is pretty. Don’t be daunted by the idea of cleaning them...

Iittala Teema Light Blue Salad Plate // $20

These plates are made in Charleston and I found them, in all places, in a florist boutique. There’s something about the light blue that feels fresh and bright.

Sanctuary Jasper Buttoned Sweater // $99

I love a shorts and chunky sweater combo. I’m a big fan of the term “fancy, not fancy” when it comes to style. This sweater reads more luxurious than it is.
