This dish is as much about the breadcrumbs as it is the pasta. Nutritional yeast pushes the toasted panko into a deeply savory umami zone, contributing huge flavor to this vegan wonder. Depending on your personality, 20 cloves of garlic will sound either horrifying or just right. If you’re in the former camp, you can relax knowing that the garlic is cooked into sweet complacency. If you can’t snag bucatini, spaghetti or linguine make fine substitutes.
