The combination of lemon and ginger is very common for fighting a cold but we use them to make pasta!!
Well, good news is that you don’t need to be sick to eat this. Added arugula gives some peppery and bitter dimension to the flavor. It’s quick and easy but a little different, this unique pasta is perfect for weeknight meals!
The dish has two different ginger flavors, cooked/raw. Cooked ginger still has a spicy kick but a bit milder compared to raw ginger. The raw ginger topping is definitely a key component of the dish.
