White wine, lemon juice, and capers bring to life a bright, crisp, and salty pasta sauce. The subtle lemon and pepper flavor of the pasta is brought out by this delicious sauce. Serve with chicken or fish and add a side of grilled asparagus for a gourmet style weeknight dinner.

Recipe Note

If you don't have pasta rocks on hand it is still important to season your pasta water! Salting the water is the only time the pasta itself is going to be seasoned so make sure your water is salty like the sea. We reccomend adding 1 Tbsp of salt for every 4 quarts of water.

Whenever you are cooking with wine we always reccomend to use a wine you would drink on its own. This doesn't mean it has to be expensive, however if you don't like the wine when you drink it you probably won't like the flavors it imparts on your food.
