How to cook deliciously - Michael Schlow's Buttered Noodles
1. Stage
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the pasta to the boiling water, stir to keep from sticking, and cook for 10 minutes or so until al dente.
2. Stage
Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large sauce pot over high heat until it starts to foam and turn a light golden brown. Add the sage leaves and a few pinches of the salt and pepper.
3. Stage
Ladle 3 ounces (6 tablespoons) of the pasta water into the butter and sage mixture and remove from heat.
4. Stage
When the pasta is cooked, strain and transfer to the sauce pot. Toss with the butter mixture to blend. Add the cheese, and adjust seasoning if needed. The sauce should just coat the pasta; if it seems too soupy, wait a minute or so and the pasta will absorb the liquid.
5. Stage
Serve on its own, or with Michael Schlow's Creamy Chicken Stew.
