Spaghetti And Browned Butter With Mizythra Cheese Recipes

BROWNED BUTTER AND MAZITHRA CHEESE SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Cook the spaghetti according to package directions until al dente.
• While the noodles are cooking, brown the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. The butter will turn a yellow, start to froth and then become brown.
• Drain the pasta but do not rinse. Pour the brown butter over the pasta. Sprinkle with mazithra cheese and toss to coat. Serve with a salad and garlic bread and garnish with parsley if desired.

OLD SPAGHETTI FACTORY BROWNED BUTTER AND MIZITHRA CHEESE RECIPE

Steps:

• Cook angel hair pasta according to directions on the package. When finished, drain but do not rinse the pasta. Place drained pasta in a large mixing bowl.
• While pasta is cooking, roughly cube butter and place it in a small saucepan over medium heat. Let the butter melt and begin to bubble. To ensure the butter is cooking evenly, rotate the pan or tilt slightly to swirl the butter around. Do not stir.
• After a few minutes, bubbles will begin to fade and butter will start to change color. Watch closely at this point as butter browns quickly from here. Brown butter is done when it is dark golden in color and smells nutty. Remove from heat immediately.
• Pour hot brown butter over the top of the drained pasta. Use tongs to toss the pasta in butter.
• Add both kinds of grated cheese and one or two tablespoons of parsley. Toss again until pasta is well coated in cheese and herbs.
• Serve immediately, garnishing with leftover parsley.

• Add about 1/4 cup of melted browned butter to each serving of spaghetti.

BROWN BUTTER SPAGHETTI WITH GREEK (MIZITHRA) CHEESE

Steps:

• Cook spaghetti until al dente.
• Drain spaghetti and leave in colander or drainer.
• Put butter (and garlic and oregano, if using) into hot pan and put it back on the burner, making sure heat is medium to medium-high.
• Stirring constantly, cook butter until it's a nice, light to medium brown.
• Remove pan from heat.
• Quickly return spaghetti to pan, turning to coat the strands with the butter; the spaghetti should glisten with the light coating of butter.
• At this point, you can add a bit more butter if you like.
• Once butter coats spaghetti, add cheese and mix well, so that bits of the mizithra are sticking to the spaghetti evenly.
• Grind a bit of pepper over the dish and mix again.
• Serve with extra mizithra and pepper.
