NOTES : From Chef Charles Palmer of Aureole. Over the last six years,
Aureole has become a New York institution with a worldwide reputation for
its progressive American cuisine. Before opening Aureole, Charles Palmer
was executive chef at the River Cafe in Brooklyn, where he earned a
reputation as one of America's most creative culinary talents. Set in a
townhouse overlooking a garden, Aureole was rated number one for top
American cuisine by the 1994 Zagat Survey. Chef's note: "I really like the
edge that the sharp Asiago adds when shaved over the pasta. However, you
can use whatever grating cheese you like, or use none at all! P.S. If you
use dried pasta, remember to adjust the cooking time." To serve, spoon
vegetable mixture over pasta, and top with cheese.
