- Cook broccoli florets in large pot of boiling salted water till just tender, about 6 min.
- Using slotted spoon, transfer broccoli to colander and drain. Add in pasta to same pot of water and cook till tender but still hard to bite.
- Drain pasta; reserve 3/4 c. cooking liquid. [I used almost this amount of liquid for a half recipe.] [Also, I took the liquid when pasta was about half-cooked, so I could get on with the sauce.]
- Return pasta to same pot.
- With processor running, drop pine nuts and garlic through feed tube and chop finely.
- Scrape down sides of work bowl.
- Add in broccoli, 1/4 c. reserved cooking liquid, oil, vinegar, and crushed red pepper, process to coarse puree.
- Pour sauce over pasta; toss over medium-low heat till heated through, adding remaining cooking liquid as needed if sauce is too thick.
- Season with salt and pepper. Serve, passing cheese separately.
