Mm. This was very good. I didn’t have broccoli so I used spinach and whole wheat penne instead. Delicious. Thank you.

Golden raisins are a great suggestion. Maybe also some pine nuts if you just had them lying around or some anchovy paste for some robust saltiness. I love recipes like this!

I make something like this but I throw golden raisins into the pan when I’m sauteeing the garlic–the little bites of sweetness really set off the spicy/bitter thing.

I love rapini. We’ve been having it once or twice a week all winter!

I make this, but I use regular broccoli instead and whatever small pasta I have handy, usually penne or macaroni. Good stuff!
