Ingredients
- 1 lb bucatini pasta 453 g
- ¼ cup unsalted butter 56 g
- ¼ cup White miso paste 56 g
- 1 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
- 1 cup finely grated parmesan 4 oz, 113 g
Instructions
- Cook Pasta: Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Cook bucatini according to the package instructions until al dente. When finished, reserve 1 cup of the pasta water and drain the rest.
- Make Sauce: In a large saute pan over medium heat, combine butter, miso, and pepper. Cook until butter is melted and pepper is fragrant, about 2 minutes.
- Assemble: After draining pasta and dumping it back into the large pot, add 1 cup of reserved pasta water, sauce, and parmesan. Stir vigorously for 2 minutes until cheese is melted and noodles are coated with sauce. Serve hot!
Notes
- Storage: Unfortunately, this pasta does not keep well in the fridge because the sauce becomes gluey. If you do have leftovers and store them in the fridge, reheat them in a pan with a little cream or water to smooth out the sauce again.
- Can I use other kinds of pasta? Yes, of course! If you cannot find bucatini pasta, I recommend using a similarly shaped pasta or another one that can hold a lot of sauce. This could be miso spaghetti or miso rigatoni. Gluten-free or vegan pasta could also be used. Feeling adventurous? You could even try using cooked spaghetti squash!
- Can this recipe be made vegan? Maybe – this recipe uses parmesan and butter and while there is some great vegan parmesan out there now, I have not tried them in this recipe. If you do try it, please let us know how it works! Just make sure your pasta is vegan. Vegan butter would be an easy swap to make.
- You could also substitute the parmesan with Silk vegan heavy whipping cream, which mixes wonderfully in pasta sauce. This will result in a similar texture but will not have as much flavor, so adding some garlic could help add flavor.
