- Toasting the walnuts briefly in a dry skillet can enhance their nutty flavor before blending.
- Use high-quality extra virgin olive oil for a richer, more robust taste.
- Reserve a cup of the pasta cooking water. You can add a bit to the sauce if it needs thinning out.
- Blend the sauce ingredients just until combined for a slightly chunky texture, or longer for a smoother sauce, depending on your preference.
- Freshly grated Parmesan cheese can be added on top for extra flavor.
Cooking spaghetti with parsley and walnut sauce is a quick and rewarding experience. The fresh parsley and rich walnuts create a flavorful and aromatic sauce that perfectly complements the spaghetti.
