Warming Winter Lunch

07-Jan-2006
Sorry!  No picture as this dish just called my name and I had to eat it immediately!  But it was simultaneously hearty and light; flavorful but simple; and visually appealing, which you’ll have to take my word on! 
 
Here’s what I did: 
 
Prepare your favorite type of dried pasta according to the instructions but use vegetable stock instead of water. 
 
Roughly cut up or tear prosciutto into bite size pieces.  Place in your serving bowl.  Tear fresh sage into small pieces and place in the bowl with the prosciutto. 
 
When the pasta is cooked, use a slotted spoon to remove it from the broth, so that a bit of the broth is included in each spoonful, place in the serving bowl and toss with the prosciutto and sage.  
 
Add salt and pepper to taste. 
 
Grate Parmesan cheese on top of the pasta and then grate a little lemon zest over the cheese.  Add additional fresh cracked black pepper, if desired. 
 
Eat and be happy!
