ORECCHIETTE WITH SWISS CHARD, RED PEPPERS AND GOAT CHEESE
Some of you have asked why I blanch greens before using them in dishes. I find it's the most efficient way to wilt them quickly and evenly, and they aren't boiled so long -- just a minute or two - that the nutrients are depleted. But lately I've also been steaming chard, and I find this works well, too. I use the basket of my pasta pot, placing it above an inch of water in the pot. When making this easy pasta, be sure to cut the sweet bell peppers into very small dice; that way, they'll lodge in the hollows of the orecchiette, along with the chard and goat cheese.

Steps:
- Begin heating a large pot of water while you stem and wash the chard. Fill a bowl with ice water. When the water in the pot comes to a boil, salt generously and add the chard. Blanch the chard leaves for one to two minutes until tender. Using a skimmer or a slotted spoon, transfer the chard to a bowl of ice water, then drain and squeeze out excess water. Chop medium-fine. Keep the pot of water at a simmer.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet, and add the bell peppers and the red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring often, until tender, five to eight minutes. Add the garlic and salt to taste, and stir for half a minute. Then stir in the chopped chard and the marjoram. Stir together for a few seconds, then turn the heat to very low.
- Bring the water in the pasta pot back to a boil, and add the orecchiette. Cook al dente, following the timing instructions on the package. Add about 1/2 cup of the pasta water to the pan with the chard and peppers. Stir in the goat cheese. Drain the pasta, transfer to the pan and toss with the chard, pepper and goat cheese mixture. Serve hot.

Steps:
- Slice chard stems into 1/4-inch pieces. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add the stems and onion, and cook, stirring, until slightly brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Cover skillet, and reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until stems are very soft, about 15 minutes. Add the vinegar, and cook, stirring, until liquid is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat, transfer onion mixture to a nonreactive bowl; set aside.
- Heat remaining tablespoon oil in same skillet over medium-high. Add anchovies, if using; saute, stirring frequently, 1 minute. Add chard leaves, and saute until slightly wilted, about 1 minute. Stir in thyme; season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the goat cheese and 2 tablespoons cream. Beat mixture until smooth, about 1 minute. Stir in the n utmeg; season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. On a large piece of parchment paper, roll out dough to a 1/4-inch-thick round, about 12 inches in diameter. Arrange onion mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 3-inch border around edge. Spread goat-cheese mixture over onion mixture, and top with the chard mixture. Sprinkle with pine nuts and golden raisins. Fold edges of dough over, and press down gently to seal. Transfer tart, on parchment paper, to a baking sheet, and refrigerate 15 minutes.
- In a small bowl, beat egg yolk with remaining tablespoon cream. Brush exposed dough with egg wash, and bake until crust is golden, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
ORECCHIETTE WITH SWISS CHARD, TOMATOES AND GOAT CHEESE
This recipe was shared by a local CSA menu planning service, through our CSA. Their website is www.localthyme.com This easy dish takes only a few minutes to cook, which is a relief on hot summer days. If you have a side burner on a gas grill, you can boil the water for the pasta outside to keep the kitchen even cooler.
