Considered a classic in Italy, this dish is less common on our side of the pond. All the more reason to make it at home on a Wednesday night, especially given how simple it is to pull off. Pasta ribbons are coated in a pesto-like sauce made with walnuts, Parmesan and artichoke hearts. These ingredients work beautifully in concert, with the cheese serving as a buttery foil for the sharp walnuts.
