SaladsOrzo Pasta Salad
Orzo pasta salad pairs the rice-shaped pasta with cherry tomatoes, cucumber, chickpeas, Kalamata olives, and crumbled feta in a starchy-water-emulsified lemon vinaigrette. The technique of spreading hot orzo on a tray with olive oil prevents the clumping that ruins every other preparation. Ready in 25 minutes and better after an hour of chilling, it holds well for 4 days making it the most reliable make-ahead pasta salad in the collection.
