Recipe - Pasta With Green Peas Basil And Scallions

2 cup Fresh or frozen green peas
2 tablespoon Butter
One fourth cup Dry vermouth
One half cup Chopped fresh scallions,
Including tender green parts
2 tablespoon Finely chopped fresh basil,
Or 1 teaspoon dried
One half pound Freshly made pasta
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper

If using fresh peas, parboil and drain. If using frozen, boil to thaw and
drain. Heat the butter in a large skillet and add the vermouth and
scallions. Cook for about 10 minutes until scallions turn soft and the
vermouth thickens and deglazes the pan. Add the peas and basil, turn the
heat to high for 2 minutes, and pour immediately over pasta. Toss well and
serve.
