I'd been wanting to try the chickpea pastas that have been floating around lately, so I used Barilla Chickpea Rotini and it was awesome! Pasta: Literally anything, though with the chunkiness of the sauce I think it works best with "short" pasta shapes like macaroni, rotini, penne, etc.But I've seen versions that add a pinch of oregano, baby spinach instead of basil, etc. The original recipe calls for a little salt and pepper, fresh minced garlic, and freshly-chopped basil. Seasonings: You can play around a little here.You can substitute a block of queso fresco (NOT queso blanco) and I discovered it will work just as well. Because of this recipe, there's been a run on block feta and many places are sold out. Sheep's milk feta is suggested for a milder, creamier experience, but be prepared to pay $9-10 for a 7oz block of sheep's milk feta. Feta Cheese: You want to use the solid block feta packaged in brine, and not the crumbles.I did not measure, but gave the tomatoes several good glugs - probably closer to ¼ cup. Between ¼ and ⅓ of a cup seems to be the agreement. Olive Oil: The original TikTok doesn't specify an amount, but you want the tomatoes to have a good hefty coating of oil.Cherry tomatoes are sweeter and less acidic. Cherry tomatoes: Make sure they are cherry tomatoes and not grape tomatoes.What Kind Of Ingredients Do I Need For TikTok Pasta? Finally, cooked pasta gets thrown into the mix, and you're done. Then the tomatoes are smashed with the back of a spoon and the whole thing is mixed together into a sauce. Mix two whole pints of sweet cherry tomatoes with olive oil and some seasonings, nestle a block of feta cheese in the middle, and bake in a hot oven until the cheese has browned and the tomatoes are wrinkly. The dish is being made so frequently that there has been a run on solid block feta cheese - I went to 3 stores and struck out! Though the original name for the recipe was simply "baked feta pasta" it is now being referred to simply as "Tiktok Pasta". To say that it has gone viral since then is an understatement. This easy tomato and feta pasta recipe was made famous by Finnish blogger Jennirinen Häy. Does this photo look familiar? I'm sure this recipe has floated across your many social media feeds (and maybe even some mainstream news channels) over the past several weeks.
