    Recipe:

    Ingredients:

    1/2 c penne pasta

    1/3 c dried shiitake mushrooms

    1/4 c dried whole chili peppers

    1/4 c cheddar cheese

    1 c whole milk

    3 tbsp cornstarch (Unless you’re making it with a proper Sauce Mornay, which I did not do. Use flour if you do this)

    2 tbsp salted butter

    2 tbsp (heaping) red miso paste

    Szechuan pepper, black pepper, garlic powder, and salt, to taste

    Cook penne, mushrooms, and chili peppers together in salted water until the noodles are Al dente (7-8 minutes). Strain the mix, pick out and discard the chilis.

    Melt butter in the pot

    Mix cold milk and cornstarch until smooth and combine with butter. Add miso paste and whisk in. DO NOT BOIL.

    Incorporate pasta, mushrooms, cheese, and spices.

    Serve and enjoy!

    Out of interest, why use miso? You already have cheese, milk, butter in there, plus plenty of sharper spicy seasonings.

    It may taste great but it needs some color/contrast.

    Funny – I just made the NYT miso pasta (miso + pasta water + cheese + furikake and I like to add peas lol)

    Miso in a creamy pasta sauce is sooo gooood

    The sauce looks so creamy. The mushrooms mixed in are a nice touch.
