LA PASTA
with a glutenfree veggie—twist
—
Runner Bean, Fig, Almond, Caper, Garlic, Goat Cheese
—
The new ‘pasta’ is quite a stretch from the traditional canonical gluten powered Italian pasta in all its glory, but it is one of Emanuel‘s favourite. So much so that when Emanuel was invited for the Monocle’s The Menu, our head chef did not hesitate to share this recipe as one of his all-time summer favourites.
And ours too, here reinvented as a chilled glutenfree veggie-based ‘pasta’ experience as the marinated runner beans are actually cut lengthwise to mimick the long threads of the Lazio Roman traditional ‘bucatini’, a thick spaghetti-like pasta with a hole running through the center making it ideal for sauces. Rubber beans replicate well this with its shallow interior, soaked in all the glory of the confit garlic marinade. And then all the summer bliss, with ripe figs, the toasted almonds, fried capers, not to mention the deep flavour of goat cheese. And throughout the time span of this recipe, thru September, we will go from the ‘atabafado’ young goat cheese with herbs to the 10-month charcoal cured Pur Chèvre from Granja dos Moinhos. Try once, twice, every other day to experience the bliss of this late summer wonder.

LA PASTA
FIORI DI ZUCCA
—
Zuchini Blossom, Artichoke Hearts, Pistachio, Ricotta, Lime-Lemon, Bigoli al Torchio
—
As thy Cucurbita Pepo blossoms bloom, you know it will be over soon. The summery fleeting flowering season of zuchini is a tempus fugit rare opportunity to taste the subtle flavour of the golden—hued ‘fiori du zucca’, reminiscent of young zucchinis, eaten raw, stuffed or even deep-fried. In reality, original from the Mesoamerica, the squash varieties of green cylindrical squash — still harvested immature and typically called ‘zucchini’ — has been cultivated in northern Italy since ancient times to be eaten flower to fruit and, of course, in pasta, a sort of literal full circle of long and thick strands of extruded fresh pasta aka ‘bigoli’. In fact, ‘bigoli al torchio’ as before the advent of industrial pasta extruding machines, small towns of the northern region of Veneto would share the same ‘torchio’ – a hand crank operated brass or bronze extruder fixed to a bench – to make bigoli. Maybe not fixed to a bench, but to our kitchen counter, early bigoli extrusion maintains the traditional roughness on the outside making it perfect to hold sauces. And what a sauce, summery lime—lemony hints tame the nuttiness of the pistachio crumbs and open the hearts of artichokes buds before they bloom, all folded into a velvety white zuchini and ricotta creamy sauce; the same housemade ricotta, filling each golden ‘fiori du zucca’ and ready to burst in one’s mouth. Big(oli) flavours every time. Enjoy it while it lasts.

SUPPA
—
Summer Solstice Gazpacho
aka Habanero Sombrero
Corn, Polenta, Pepper, Pimenta da Terra
—
With the summer solstice here and the temperatures on the rise for the weeks ahead, the new suppa had to be thy all—time Early favourite ‘gazpacho’, in its now umpteenth iteration, served ice cold every time, to cool you down at anytime of the day.
But this Summer Solstice Gazpacho aka Habanero Sombrero is also an ode to a very special bowl dish that since opening Early, back in 2018, it has been fondly nicknamed by staff as thy ‘habanero sombrero’. —Pass me one habanero, will ya? or —Hand me that sombrero? are part of the early kitchen dialect every day with obvious resonances to the traditional white wide brimmed hats from Iberia to Latin America and the Caribe, handy in hot weather when the sun is blazing.
Exactly right, as this time, the ‘sombrero’ seems to encapsulate its bright star sun in all its traits: a fiery hot yellow hued circle lighting up our days no matter what. And plenty of season reasons for that, as we mix sweet corn, yellow pepper, yellow cherry tomatoes, habanero chili, the Azores—archipelago wonder Pimenta da Terra, a dash of golden virgin olive oil, a dollop of cider vinegar, a pinch of salt and bam! Damn sweet, spicy, pickled, chilled gazpacho that is just heaven on your mouth! Not to mention the sandy spiced polenta thin aka housemade crackling huge ‘nacho’ to ‘amuse bouche’ under the sun! Enjoy.
