Butter Noodles (aka Pasta with Butter)
Report
The ultimate comfort food, only 2 ingredients and ready in minutes.
Share:
Ingredients
- 6 oz Spaghetti
- 1 Tbsp butter enough to coat the pasta
- ⅛ tsp sea salt to taste
Instructions
- Bring a pot of water to a boil, then add a good amount of salt. Taste the water, it should taste salty, almost like sea/ocean water. Then add spaghetti.
- Cook until al dente, not too hard, though (if you use a good quality pasta it won't get mushy).
- Use a pasta fork and remove the pasta from the water and place directly into two plates. Top with butter and mix until well-coated.
Notes
- Lots of people like to add grated Parmigiano Reggiano or Pecorino Romano cheese to this dish. Just be sure to use the real deal.
- For a more Italian and vegan option, use extra virgin olive oil in place of the butter
