Steps:
- In a large pan heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat until just shimmering. Add the onions, garlic, and finely grated carrots. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring regularly until softened.
- Add the crushed tomatoes and about 1/2 cup water. Add a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in oregano, paprika, crushed pepper flakes, if using. Finally, stir in the fresh basil and parsley.
- Bring the sauce to a boil, then turn heat to low. Cover and let simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes. Check partway through, and if you feel the sauce is too thick, you can add a bit more water (preferably some of your pasta cooking water). When sauce is ready, throw in more fresh basil, if you like.
- If serving for dinner, add cooked pasta of your choice to the sauce. Mix to combine and let the pasta cook in the sauce over low heat for about 5 minutes.

Steps:
- MAKE HERBS SAUCE: Finely chop herbs and green onions. Stir together with other dressing ingredients except oil. Slowly whisk in oil. Alternatively (I do this): put all herb dressing ingredients in a processor and pulse to blend well. Or use an immersion blender. Taste and adjust seasonings to your liking. Serve at room temperature.

PASTA AND HERBED CREAM SAUCE
Steps:
- In a large pot of boiling salted water add the spaghetti and cook until it is al dente. Meanwhile, in a large skillet set over moderately low heat, melt the butter, add the rosemary and cook it, stirring, for 1 to 2 minutes. As soon as the pasta is cooked, drain and add it to the pan. Add the cream, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Toss to coat and let reduce 1 to 2 minutes, gently stirring, or until lightly thickened. Add Parmesan to taste, toss to combine and transfer to serving dish. Sprinkle with parsley.
PASTA WITH FRESH HERBS, LEMON AND PEAS
Buy a bunch of parsley along with basil or chives to keep on hand in your refrigerator. The herbs will keep for a week if properly stored. Produce departments often use misters, but greens don't keep well once wet. When you get home, spin the herbs in salad spinner if they're wet, wrap them in a paper towel and then bag them.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, in a large bowl or pasta bowl, combine the herbs, lemon zest, garlic, lemon juice and olive oil.
- When the water comes to a boil, salt generously and add the pasta. A few minutes before the pasta is done, add the peas to the water. When the pasta is just about al dente, remove a half cup of the cooking water and add to the bowl with the herbs. Drain the pasta and peas, toss with the herb mixture and the cheese, and serve.

PASTA WITH CREAMY HERB SAUCE
This cozy pasta is the perfect place to use up any hard-stem herbs like sage, thyme or rosemary that are languishing in your fridge. Add the herbs and a cinnamon stick to a pot of heavy cream. As they bubble together, the cream takes on a surprising but subtle herbaceousness. Use it to sauce pasta noodles and winter greens. If you don't have the herbs listed, leave them out or swap in marjoram or bay leaves, or even dried chile, lemon peel, garlic, shallot or leeks. The method of infusing cream with flavorings, then using it to sauce pasta, is open to adaptation. To get vegetarian recipes like this one delivered to your inbox, sign up for The Veggie newsletter .

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream, sage, thyme, rosemary, cinnamon and a pinch of salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium and cook until the cream has thickened slightly and is reduced to about 1 cup, 12 to 15 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer. Remove from heat until the pasta's ready.
- When the cream is at the halfway point, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until a minute or 2 shy of al dente. About 3 minutes before draining the pasta, add the greens to the water. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain the pasta and greens with a colander and return to the pot.
- Place the just-used colander over the pot of pasta, then strain the infused cream through the colander into the noodles. (Discard or compost the herbs and cinnamon stick.) Add the 1/2 cup pasta water to the pasta, set over medium-high heat, and cook, tossing, until the sauce glosses the noodles, 3 to 4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

ALMOST AS SIMPLE PASTA WITH PARMESAN, HERBS, AND FRESH GARLIC
Another family favorite that lends itself to easy variations -- tweak the taste to complement the day's main dish by your choice of herbs. You probably have all these ingredients handy in your pantry and refrigerator. I swear the kids would eat this every day if I'd make it that often. I can't personally vouch for freezing it, but I know that it reheats well in the microwave after being refrigerated. Cooking time is mainly cooking the pasta.

THE 10 GREEN SAUCES THAT WILL MAKE YOU A BETTER COOK
From epicurious.com

- Argentina: Chimichurri. Sit down at most restaurants in the US and they'll put ketchup on the table. Sit down at most restaurants in Argentina and they'll put a jar of chimichurri on the table.
- Morocco: Chermoula. This North African pureed green sauce is traditionally deployed as a marinade for all kinds of seafood, but it can be used for so much more—from marinating chicken or steak or eggplants to drizzling over roasted vegetables.
- Italy: Salsa Verde. It may look a lot like chimichurri, but the flavor of Italian salsa verde is surprisingly different, with chopped capers and sometimes anchovy fillets giving this version an irresistible salty-funky tang.
- Mexico: Salsa Verde. In Mexico salsa verde means something completely different than it does in Italy, but it still involves a lot of fresh herbs and garlic.
- Italy: Pesto. Yes, technically you could call pesto a "salsa verde," since the term just means "green sauce." Pesto's easily the most luscious of the green sauces, since it boasts not only olive oil but cheese (usually Parmesan, sometimes Pecorino) and nuts (often pine nuts, but sometimes with walnuts or other nuts, too).
- Thailand: Chile-Herb Dipping Sauce. An entire book could be written about the broad range of Thai chile-herb sauces, but this version is a great place to start.
- Yemen: Zhoug. This spicy thick green sauce is Yemenite in origin, but it can be found all over Syria, Israel, and other parts of the Middle East, where it's spooned over shakshuka for breakfast and drizzled into falafel sandwiches the rest of the day.
- India: Green Chutney. Cilantro and mint headline together in this earthy Indian green condiment, while ginger and jalapeño give it a a gently burning heat.
- Texas: Creamy Jalapeño Sauce. Austin's favorite taco sauce is affectionately known as That Green Sauce, and no, it's not made with avocados or dairy. The secret to the creaminess of this addictive cilantro, jalapeño, lime, and garlic sauce is to use a blender to slowly emulsify vegetable oil into the puree.
- California: Green Goddess Dressing. Some people might disagree with me on this one, but I don't think you can go on a world-tour of green sauces without mentioning this California babe of a sauce.

- Place chopped parsley, garlic, zest, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Give a stir. Taste. Add more lemon juice if you like. (You want this salty and lemony.) If you want a looser consistency add a little more oil. Add a pinch of chili flakes for heat.
- Place unchopped parsley, garlic and zest in a food processor and pulse until chopped. Add oil, salt & pepper and lemon juice. Pulse again, until uniformly combined but not too smooth. Taste and adjust salt and lemon juice. Add chili flakes for a touch of heat if you like. Add more oil for a looser consistency.
