A cooking video about making a simple, delicious pasta dish of potatoes, arugula and artichokes. It also includes a primer in making fresh pasta. I hope you enjoy.

Thanks for sharing the recipe Podchef! I love arugula!
I wanted to first say that I’m so sorry about your loss–losing a parent is never easy, even after a prolonged illness. I can’t believe you were apologizing about late podcasts–I just happened upon your forum where you explained the situation. I’m a new listener to your podcasts–I’m still catching up around # 23 or so, but I’ve been watching some of your recent video casts which are very interesting. As a wanna-be farmer (but who isn’t yet willing to move out of the old urban suburbs of Pittsburgh) I enjoy seeing other’s experience with raising their own food. So far all I can do is raise a few veg, but it’s incredibly rewarding to know that my leeks, fava beans, asparagus, peas, garlic, etc. didn’t come from the grocery store, but from my own garden!
I’d love to grow some artichokes (and am very intrigued about their close relative, the cardoon.) You mentioned that part of the artichoke stem is an extension of the heart of the artichoke. If you grow them, can you actually use the stem as you would a cardoon? Some food for thought . . .
Keep up good work–thanks for sharing your recipes and experiences with us listeners/watchers.
