Steps:

  • Cook the pasta in a saucepan of boiling salted water for 10 to 12 minutes, then drain, reserving a cup of the cooking water.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the shallots for 5 minutes until soft but not colored. Add the greens and a splash of the pasta water, cover and cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Melt the butter with the miso paste and blend with 150ml (2/3 cup) of the pasta water until smooth. Add to the drained pasta with the greens. Serve with lots of cracked black pepper.

HARISSA AND MISO SPAGHETTI



Harissa and Miso Spaghetti image

In this recipe, harissa and miso turn spaghetti into a comforting meal reminiscent of carbonara. Together, these two condiments bring sweetness, a touch of heat and just enough umami to call for a second serving. The bread crumbs are optional but they are totally recommended; they can be prepared in advance and kept for two days in a sealed container.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon fine sea salt
12 ounces dry spaghetti
2 tablespoons white miso paste
2 tablespoons harissa
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 large eggs
2 1/2 ounces (about 1 1/2 cups) finely grated Parmesan (Parmigiano-Reggiano)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup bread crumbs, preferably panko
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley (or 1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh parsley)
Generous pinch of fine sea salt

Steps:

  • Prepare the pasta: Place a large pot of water over high heat, add the salt and bring to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until it's almost al dente. Reserve 1 cup of cooking water and drain the pasta.
  • While the pasta cooks, make the bread crumbs, if desired: Heat the olive oil in a medium frying pan over medium high, add the bread crumbs, parsley and salt, and stir to coat. Stir constantly until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the bread crumbs to a small container and keep until ready to use.
  • Transfer the miso paste, harissa and olive oil to a medium bowl. Add 3 tablespoons of the reserved pasta cooking water and whisk together until well combined and smooth. Add the eggs and whisk again until well combined.
  • Transfer the drained pasta back to the pot over low heat. Add the harissa mixture and the grated Parmesan, and stir vigorously. (This is important to prevent the eggs from scrambling.) Add a couple tablespoons of the cooking water (or more if necessary) and continue stirring to obtain a creamy sauce that coats all the pasta, about 1 to 2 minutes. Immediately remove from the heat. Taste and season with salt if necessary. Serve right away, with bread crumbs, if using.

FIVE-INGREDIENT CREAMY MISO PASTA



Five-Ingredient Creamy Miso Pasta image

This one-pot pasta comes together in minutes, and requires zero prep and minimal cleanup. It builds on the classic combination of pasta, butter and cheese with a spoonful of miso paste for complexity. But you could experiment with using any other condiments or spices you have on hand, such as red pesto, curry paste or ground turmeric in place of the miso. To achieve a silky smooth pasta, you'll need to put your cacio e pepe skills to work: Vigorously toss the pasta, grated cheese and pasta water together to achieve a properly emulsified sauce. Top with shrimp, edamame, frozen peas or any steamed vegetable. The optional nori or furikake imparts an unexpected flavor of the sea, and it's worth using if you have it on hand.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Kosher salt
16 ounces spaghetti, linguine or bucatini
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons white (or red) miso
4 ounces Parmesan, finely grated (1 packed cup)
Kizami nori, furikake or thinly sliced seaweed snacks, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Reserve 1 1/2 cups pasta water, then drain the pasta.
  • Add the butter, miso and 1 1/4 cups pasta water to the pot and whisk over medium heat until miso breaks down and liquid is uniform, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the pasta and Parmesan and cook, stirring vigorously with tongs until cheese is melted and sauce emulsifies. (The key word here is "vigorously." To achieve a silky smooth pasta instead of a gloppy one, put your cacio e pepe skills to work.)
  • Divide among shallow bowls and sprinkle with nori or furikake, if using.
