remember thumbs up you like video don't forget to subscribe to the channel and don't forget to ring the bell stay tuned friends I'm gonna show you how to make three amazing phenomenal delicious pasta salad [Applause] okay friends well we're gonna start with the easiest one with the pesto based sauce really simple make it without whatever pasta you are of course I like the orequate because it means the little ears you can put a bunch of stuff in it you know this is great for volunteers they're great for all kind of stuff so make it with whatever pasta you want penne ziti whatever they're all wonderful all right so look guys uh we got a Parmigiano-Reggiano we're gonna put and we're gonna process it just a little bit the parmigiano just a little bit let's go in a bit I dealt with a food processor the way the mushroom blender whatever you want um and then we're gonna put the ingredient then we know very well we know the ingredient works very well for um for a pesto based things and Jack you know what I forgot the almonds oh well magically they appear so friends you can put pine nuts I got them I'm gonna put the pine nuts in the salad you see the price of pine nuts these days you gotta take a second mortgage on the house to buy some pine nuts these days so I keep them for the salad instead of grind them up and you know what I love to do put almonds in a pesto okay little almonds and uh and then a little garlic in there and level right you are just a little garlic here garlic and um and then uh uh what else we're gonna put in here oh we're gonna put the basil leaves friends Basil Leaf if you if you can do if you have a choice you want to put small basil leaves that's about a couple of cups of Basil Leaf right there right and uh and a pinus we're gonna put them later and we're gonna process this with some beautiful olive oil I'm using a garlic olive oil use whatever olive oil you want and now you can already buy friends the best door when he made them yeah well buy a pesto already made it then you don't need to go through this up to you this is really easy yeah I mean I I like to make it of course because I got all the equipment and everything but you don't have time to make it just buy a pesto made already there's some good one out there we're gonna process it it's easier if you make it yourself okay but if you don't have the time or the inclination inclination that's a fancy world for me anyway little olive oil difference all right look piece of cake look at this beautiful pesto okay this is going to be the base for our dressing all right now the pasta friends I cook them Al Dente Bernardo Al Dente and I don't rinse them okay oh Mamma Mia don't ever rinse them if you rent a pasta you wash out all the stars you need that starch that stuff first of all um first of all uh it's got a great texture we love the texture of it but second of all friends uh it'll help us thicken whatever it is we put on here so it's really important it's part of the texture so don't ever rinse it okay my friends don't ever rinse the pasta I don't care if it's cold you're cooking when they come out of the water all you got to do is just put a little bit of olive oil on it and shake them put a little bit of olive oil and that's it put a lot of water in your pasta I didn't want to waste your time showing you how to cook pasta everybody knows a little cooked pasta all right friends so there you go depends the pasta eight minutes 10 minutes 12 minutes depends the pasta depends the manufacturers there's a lot of great Brands out there I love the Chaco they check a pasta I think it's fantastic it's one of the best pasta there is adding about there's a lot of good one also there's a lot of great pasta look I leave a little bit in there in case I want to put it a bit at the end we're going to put a pine nuts yeah we're gonna wait our money's worth right there we don't grind them up cherry tomatoes cut cherry tomatoes all right now cheers friends you can put goat cheese you can put feta cheese you can put little mozzarella balls have you ever had those those are really cool mozzarella balls put them right in there look a little feta cheese you buy crumble come by goat cheese crumble right you can't do that all right look look how simple that is friends you could also add some black olives to this up to you my friends I probably I I like it with black olive but I'm going to put black olive in the other one also another thing you want to do is you want to bring a little fresh my friends a little freshness so you know what I do I take a little bit of the lemon zest and you know every time I use that because we have remember every day every day every day we have 1500 2 000 new subscribers and they don't know how to use the tool so for those of you that heard me a hundred times say how to do it remember the tool on top of the lemon not the lemon on top of the tool okay all right don't do this because you can't see where you're going all right right there you want to put a touch of lemon juice to wake up everything Right Touch of lemon juice and then we're going to put a touch of an aged balsamic vinegar okay this is my black Mission fake balsamic vinegar friends just a little bit you don't want to put too much and right there this is going to be beautiful and right there my friend this is salad number one you wanna add a little goat cheese don't be afraid you take a fork you see you take a fork and you crumble it like this except this one is not crumbling very good because the probably not cold enough whenever I set up to do the show we turn on all the lights of the studio is a little a little warm in here and so the cheese got warmed but this is it this is our salad number one this is delicious one thing we need friends one thing we need is some beautiful freshly cracked black pepper let's add a little bit more salt I know the pasta with salty already but let's put that in and right there we got salad number one with a pesto and a tomato and a mozzarella and the feta cheese pasta salad number one really simple to make all right we're gonna set up we're gonna clean up and we're gonna go to number two you know I decided I'm gonna put some olives just a little bit of olives Jack doesn't like him yeah he's not gonna eat anything I eat at all right and you know what I forgot to do friends I forgot to check it so I'm gonna check it to make sure it's perfect because that's part of the deal huh um you almost sold we're done all right we're gonna get ready for number two foreign you know when I think of a pasta salad I think of a pasta dish and I designed my salad based on a pasta dish you know it's a pasta dish right it's called pasta dish right so you had to put an escort right think about tomato we love tomato salsa we love a tomato a base cold so we're gonna put it in there we're gonna make a a puttanesca deal if you will all right so putanesca is uh it's got anchovy I know a lot of you are going to say oh no I can show me don't worry salad you never know there's anchovy right yeah you see they they just a flavor enhancer you won't even know they're in there don't like it just don't put them in that's all it's very simple a little bit of garlic not too much garlic okay right there very simple Believe It or Not Capers I love Capers Capers are great we use them all the time they're salty put a little bit of parsley in there then we're gonna put some uh beautiful roasted garlic olive oil that's my most popular olive oil I love it I think it's fabulous well otherwise I wouldn't be using it right oh oh I'm gonna put a little bit of the tomato sauce I got a marinara sauce you want to make your own marinara sauce you go ahead otherwise just buy your good Mindanao sauce than you like if you don't like um if you have time you can make my marinara sauce jacket it's going to give you a nice link it's a fabric of sauce friends you should try you know maybe not today because you're in a hurry you're gonna make a tomato so you're gonna make it but I'm telling you foreign say we have a little lambusify the vinaigrette pretty simple no big deal but it was salt in there not too much salt because you know the Caper and then I'm gonna put some olives and then show me they got a lot of salt so we don't put a lot of salt okay all right now here we have it friends very simple very simple you see look I don't complicate things complicated things there's enough complication in our life my friends we don't need to complicate things right so we put a little bit of dressing right there they're very simple all right and then we're gonna put the tomatoes now on the tomatoes friends like I said I got the tomato um I got the the tomato sauce and I also got sun-dried tomatoes and you can buy those in oil already or if they're not in oil because you want to make them yourself you buy good sun dried tomato and you rehydrate him look in beautiful olive oil okay now you gotta cut them in little pieces level up until you go to restaurant you got a big piece of sun-dried tomato and young you're chewing and you can't get through it because it's a big place it's very difficult to chew through it so little tomato sauce put as much or as little as you want you know who who is measuring here yeah a little bit of a a chopper parsley okay and look at this let me tell you friends this is going to become one of your favorite pasta salad and how simple was that think of a putanesca you ever had a nice puttanesca right it's delicious
