Hi! I’m Yarin, a home baker and cook.

My culinary journey began as a teenager, inspired by my mom, an incredible cook. She taught me the basics, and from there, I put my own spin on things. My style is mostly Mediterranean-inspired, but I love experimenting with different flavors and cuisines.

In recent years, videography has become a big part of my life, so I decided to combine my love for cooking with my passion for creating content. I'm excited to share my journey of making delicious food with you!

Pea Pesto Farfalle

Cook the Farfalle pasta in a pot of boiling salted water according to package instructions. Drain, reserving one cup of cooking water. Aim for al dente.

Make the pesto: In a skillet over medium heat, add a bit of olive oil or unsalted butter and cook the peas with 2 tbsp water for about 5 minutes. Let cool. Using a pestle and mortar or food processor, combine garlic, walnuts, and salt. Add peas, basil leaves, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, and 1/4 cup olive oil; grind until finely minced, add a bit water if needed. Process until well combined.

Final Steps: In a skillet over low heat, add cooked pasta, 3 tbsp. pesto, reserved pasta water, and 1 tbsp Parmesan cheese. Mix well and cook for a few minutes. Add the remaining Parmesan and cook until the pasta is well cooked and the sauce has thickened. Serve in a bowl with crème fraîche, chili flakes, and a drizzle of olive oil.

Additional  tbsp grated Parmesan cheese for serving

crème fraîche (optional, can substitute with sour cream)
