Rhubarb and Fresh Dill Pasta


Ingredients



  • 2 cups, uncooked Pasta
Sauce
  • 10 1/2 ounces rhubarb stalks
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 3 tablespoons coconut cream (heavy cream if you want dairy)
  • 1 large shallot, thinly sliced
  • Fine sea salt
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons pine nuts, roughly chopped
  • 3 tablespoons golden raisins, soaked in warm water 10 minutes, then drained
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped fresh dill

FOR SAUCE: Cut each rhubarb stalk crosswise into 3 pieces, then thinly slice lengthwise. In a wide heavy pot or Dutch oven, combine wine, cream, shallot and  1/4 teaspoon salt; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat; cook, stirring occasionally, 1 minute. Add rhubarb and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes more. Remove from heat and set aside. 
In a medium skillet, combine butter, pine nuts and raisins; cook over medium heat until butter is melted and flavors begin to meld, about 2 minutes. Stir in dill; cook 1 minute more. Remove from heat. 
Cook pasta in the boiling water until tender, about. Reserving 1/4 cup pasta cooking liquid, drain pasta. Transfer pasta to a large serving bowl; add pasta cooking liquid, pine nut mixture, rhubarb mixture and generous pinch salt. Toss to combine. Adjust seasoning. Serve immediately.
