Cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and reserve ¼ cup of the pasta water.
Add the garlic and almonds to a food processor and pulse until roughly chopped. Add ¼ tsp of salt to the food processor along with the remaining ingredients, pulse until thoroughly combined. Transfer the mixture to a large serving bowl, add salt and pepper to taste.
Add the cooked pasta to the bowl and toss to combine. Stir in the reserved pasta water a little at a time until you reach a desired consistency.
