    Not sure about that as the Al Bronzo brand from Barilla is already 2-3 years on the market in the US (including their linguine)

    Short Ribs Braised with Mushrooms, Pearl Onions, and Bacon from “Simple to Spectacular” by Vongerichten - the short ribs are braised in a mixture of red wine, onions, carrots, celery, garlic, thyme, bay leaf and parsley. When it was braising you separately prepare the add-ins - crisped up bacon, sautéed button mushrooms and cooked pearl onions until lightly brown. Once the ribs are braised you strain out the vegetables and reheat the ribs with the bacon, mushrooms and pearl onions. Served with mashed potatoes and blanched snap peas finished with some toasted sesame oil

    Roasted Butternut Squash Filled with Caramelized Puy Lentils and Feta from “Full of Flavor” by Maria Elia - butternut squash halfs get roasted in the oven with just some olive oil and scooped out. The squash flesh is cooked with caramelized onions, garlic, cooked puy lentils, feta, mint, parsley, pine nuts, cumin seeds & powder, paprika, sirarakhong chili powder and lemon juice, filled back into the butternut squash halves and baked in the oven. Normally you sprinkle pomegranate seeds before serving but they turned out to be bad
  15. I think it is relevant because why would any author include a cooking method which is known to have a potential negative health impact. In addition, in many countries outside of the US (especially Europe) microwaves are still seen as an inferior cooking approach and so any author who uses it as one of the key ways to cook pasta would have a significant credibility issue
