Miso Pasta Pasta

20240524 #breakfastdiary 1066, 16°C/mostly cloudy, 21 min/workout(Y) Something I newly realized this time is that few ingredients are as perfect for quick cooking as miso. Most miso-based dishes we know, like miso ramen or miso soup, are made with just the ingredients you can see on the surface. Today's breakfast, #misopasta, is the same. I tried improvising with garlic and red pepper, but it seems like miso alone could achieve a similar flavor. In a pan, add 2 [parts] butter, sliced garlic, and 1/2 [part] miso, and mix. It doesn't blend well at first, but adding 1/2 cup of pasta water loosens it up nicely. Grate in a generous mound of parmesan cheese. Add the cooked pasta and mantecare. Plate it and top with red pepper flakes. Natto or an egg yolk on top would be nice too. Referenced a recipe from @brekkyattiffanys.
