Gypsy Pasta Salad With Wasabi Ginger Sauce Recipes

GENOVESE PASTA SALAD

Steps:

• Toss 8 ounces green beans with olive oil, salt and pepper on a baking sheet. Quarter 1 pound small red-skinned potatoes; toss with olive oil, salt and pepper on a separate baking sheet. Roast at 425 degrees F until the vegetables are browned, 15 minutes for the green beans and 25 to 30 minutes for the potatoes; let cool. Cook 8 ounces gemelli as the label directs. Drain, then toss with 1/4 cup olive oil and the zest of 1 lemon; let cool. Add the beans and potatoes, the juice of 1/2 lemon, 1/2 cup chopped basil and 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts; toss. Top with shaved Parmesan.

WASABI SALAD DRESSING

Steps:

• Whisk rice wine vinegar, honey, soy sauce, wasabi paste, sesame oil, lime juice, and ginger together in a bowl to make dressing.

GYPSY PASTA SALAD WITH WASABI GINGER SAUCE

Steps:

• Wasabi Ginger Sauce: in a separate bowl, mix together the fresh jalapenos, wasabi, horseradish, and powdered ginger.
• Use a small amount of water if necessary.
• This will make your"Wasabi Ginger" sauce.
• Take 3 tablespoons of this sauce.
• Cook Ziti Al dente, drain and Reserve.
• Drain peppers place in food processor until almost liquid.
• Pour into large bowl.
• Add Wasabi Ginger Sauce and Olives.
• Slowly mix in Olive oil.
• Now add pasta and Cheese mix well and Serve.
• Enjoy.

WASABI-SOY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• In a small liquid measuring cup or a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine 1/4 cup water, the garlic, sugar, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil and wasabi paste. Whisk to combine, or, if using a jar, seal tightly and shake vigorously until emulsified. Taste and add more wasabi if you like; the wasabi flavor will intensify as the vinaigrette sits.
• Use immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 week. This tastes great with any green salad, of course, but also with raw, crunchy vegetables, like cucumbers, sugar snap peas and thinly sliced asparagus.

GYPSY SALAD

Steps:

• Mix the peas with the potatoes, salami, cheese and gherkins.
• Toss with the French dressing.
• Pile on a platter lined with salad greens.
• Decorate with the anchovy fillets, eggs and tomato slices.

WASABI TUNA SALAD

Steps:

• You'll want to flake your tuna first. I prefer to use a potato masher, but so long as it gets flaked to bits, it'll work. Use what suits you best.
• Mix in the mayo and relish thoroughly, to your desired consistency.
• Mix in the spoonful of wasabi powder, distributing it evenly throughout the tuna-mayo mixture.
• Seal and refrigerate for 1 or two hours before using, allowing the flavors to mingle properly. It's as simple as that.
