Today’s Culinary Adventure: Blueberry Basil Pasta

Today, I’m excited to share a unique and refreshing dish that combines the sweetness of blueberries with the herbaceous notes of fresh basil. This dish is perfect for a summer gathering or a cozy night in, and I can’t wait for you to try it!

Ingredients:

• 200g fresh blueberries
• 30g fresh basil leaves
• 250g linguine
• 50g unsalted butter
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 50g grated Parmesan cheese
• to taste
• to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• saucepan
• skillet
• colander
• cheese grater

Start by cooking the linguine according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Add the fresh blueberries and cook until they start to burst, releasing their juices.

Chop the fresh basil leaves and add them to the skillet, stirring gently to combine with the blueberries. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Once the blueberry basil sauce is fragrant and slightly thickened, add the cooked linguine to the skillet. Toss everything together until the pasta is well coated with the sauce.

Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top. Serve the Blueberry Basil Pasta hot and enjoy the unique flavor combination!

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 580g, with 4 servings averaging at 145g each. Each serving is approximately 350 calories.

Clever Tip:

For an added twist, try squeezing a bit of fresh lemon juice over the pasta just before serving. The acidity will brighten up the flavors and take this dish to the next level!
