I love Italian food, but it is so hard going out to dinner! We enjoy rice noodles with tomato sauce, but this recipe was truly different!
I tried some new penne noodles from Henrys and made a "cream" sauce without milk! I also learned how to soften walnuts to make into a cream.
You have to cook 2 - 1/4 cup walnuts in boiled water for at least 15 minutes. In a food processor, you have to grind the walnuts, 1 - 1/4 cup of water, 1/4 tsp nutmeg, 1 garlic clove, 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Stream in 1/2 cup Olive Oil. Now, let me just say, it was a little bland and needed either more salt or garlic....
