Easy Miso Pasta

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook pasta according to package instructions. Make sure to save 1 1/4 cups of pasta water!

Step 2

Add the butter to a saute pan and melt over medium heat.

Step 3

Add in the minced shallot and garlic and saute for about 3-5 minutes.

Step 4

Add in the miso and saute for 1 minute.

Step 5

Whisk in the parmesan, salt, pepper and pasta water.

Step 6

Whisk until the cheese melts. If you want a super creamy sauce, you can transfer to a blender, but everything should melt together nicely.

Step 7

Combine with the cooked pasta and toss until the pasta is well coated.

Step 8

Serve with red pepper flakes for a bit of spice and enjoy!
