When there is 1 minute left of cook time, (carefully remove 2/3 cup of the pasta water and set aside, then (add the julienned zucchini and cook for the remaining minute, to blanch it. Drain with a fine metal sieve and set aside.

Step 3

Aromatics: In the meantime, melt the butter in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onion and zucchini and sauté for 10 minutes, until the zucchini is translucent. Add the garlic and sauté for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, then remove from the heat.

Step 4

Blend: Carefully transfer the sautéed zucchini and onion mixture to a blender along with the reserved pasta water, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, hemp hearts or cashews, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Blend on high for 45 to 60 seconds, until a smooth sauce forms.
