Steps:
- Cook pasta in salted water according to package directions. Drain, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid.
- Transfer pasta to a large bowl, and mix in reserved cooking liquid, cheese, lemon zest and juice, mint, oil, and red-pepper flakes, if desired. Divide among dishes, garnish with cheese, and serve immediately.
PASTA WITH MINT AND PARMESAN
The pairing of pasta with mint and Parmesan is a good one. There is something about the lightly assaultive yet somehow sweet nature of mint that is unlike any other herb. Older cuisines use it occasionally, but it is rarely seen as a major player. In this dish, however, softened by butter and cheese, mint converts a basic but undeniably heavy combination into an easy yet complex pasta dish best described as refreshing. To the inevitable question, Can I use olive oil instead of butter? my answer is that you can, but you will completely change the nature of the dish; it won't be bad, but it won't be as good. Better, I think, to cut the butter back to two tablespoons. But because this sauce is cut with the pasta cooking water, the butter is spread nicely throughout, and it really isn't a huge amount per person.

LEMON MINT PASTA
I got this out of a recent Martha Stewart Magazine. I made it and served it with green peas on the side. My kids loved this. It was also really fast and easy. Great weeknight summer pasta dish. The original recipe called for fettuccine, but I made it with angel hair instead because that's what I had on hand. The recipe also stated that you could substitiue fresh basil for the mint, but the mint was great.
