amanda

Equipment

  • - Pasta Roller/Extruder: Ideal for making fresh pappardelle from scratch if you prefer homemade pasta over store-bought.

  • - Large Pot: Necessary for boiling water and cooking the Yuba as well as the English Peas and Fava Beans.

  • - Skillet/Frying Pan: Useful for sautéing ingredients that complement this dish, such as onions or garlic.

  • - Hand Blender (Immersion Blender): For pureeing Yuba if needed and blending sauces smoothly during recipe preparation.

  • - Strainer/Sieve: Essential for draining cooked English Peas and Fava Beans, ensuring they are free from excess water.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup homemade or purchased vegetable stock

  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

  • 2 cups (12 ounces) fresh English peas

  • 2 cups Homemade Buttermilk or whole milk (see Test-Kitchen Tips, below)

  • 6 sheets fresh or frozen (thawed) yuba (about 6 ounces) cut in half lengthwise and then crosswise into 1-inch-wide strips (see Test-Kitchen Tips, below)

  • 1 cup (6 ounces) fresh English peas

  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

  • 1 cup fresh fava leaves, loosely packed (see Test-Kitchen Tips, below)

  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, torn and loosely packed (about 24 leaves)

  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instruction 2

Transfer peas and cooking liquid to blender and blend on high until very smooth, about 1 minute. Set aside. (Purée can be made ahead and refrigerated, tightly wrapped in plastic wrap, up to 12 hours. To maintain peas' vibrant green color, cool purée over ice bath before refrigerating.)

Instruction 3

In medium saucepan over moderate heat, stir together buttermilk, yuba, peas, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Bring to simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until peas are just tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in pea purée and fava leaves, cover, and cook until fava leaves are wilted, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and stir in basil, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Serve immediately.
