Preparation 20 minutes preparation + 8 minutes cooking

Clean the broccoletti by removing leaves and tough stalks. Rinse under running water.

Trim the stalks so the florets are all more or less the same size.

Boil the florets in a pot of salted water, adding a pinch of baking soda if desired so the broccoli retains its color.

Boil for 4 or 5 minutes, or until a knife can easily pierce the thickest part of the stem.

Drain, rinse briefly with cold water to stop the cooking process and set aside.

Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat.

Add peeled, chopped garlic and the broccoletti.

Season with salt and sauté for 2 minutes, then remove from heat.

Meanwhile, boil the pasta in a large pot of salted water according to package directions.

Drain and toss with the broccoletti mixture. Garnish with the three grated cheeses and serve.
