CAVANNA PASTA AUGUST NEWSLETTER

Vacation Closing
July 1st marked our our third year anniversary, so that must mean it's vacation time for us. Cavanna Pasta will be closed from Monday August 27 through Monday September 3 to relax a bit and do some preventive maintenance on the pasta machines. Stock up!

Help Wanted
If you know of anyone who is mature and responsible and loves talking about food and is looking for a job, would you please send him or her our way? With September approaching, we are losing our helpers to the hallowed halls of their high schools and colleges. Full or part time considered!

Richmond Times-Dispatch to the Rescue
We would like to thank all of our "regulars" who have stuck with us over the past three years — through thin and thin — and we would like to welcome all our new customers who saw the article about us in the Business section of the Richmond Times-Dispatch on Monday, June 18th.

Gianni's Version of Pasta Primavera
There are many variations of this dish, but following is the recipe Gianni grew up with in the Riviera. Now is the season to enjoy fresh vegetables with fresh pasta!

In a large skillet, saute a finely sliced onion, 1 minced clove of garlic, and either fresh chopped parsley or rosemary in 2 - 3 tablespoons of good olive oil with your choice of fresh, local vegetables, such as mushrooms, broccoli, red or yellow bell peppers, zucchini, peas, etc. Saute quickly, so the vegetables still have some bite. Boil your fresh, plain pasta (fettuccine, for example) al dente. Drain it and saute it with all the vegetables in the skillet. Add a creamy sauce such as an alfredo or a vodka sauce. You can add just a touch of pepper flakes, salt and pepper to taste. If desired, sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top. Buon appetito!
