Short pasta with broccoli rabe in a garlic sauce. We use legume pasta in this recipe to increase protein content.
Southern Italians are particularly fond of broccoli rabe, a vegetable related to both the cabbage and turnip family. To reduce its bitterness, it is important to boil it in a large quantity of water.
