CREAMY Mentaiko Pasta (明太子パスタ)

Mentaiko Pasta (明太子パスタ) is a mashup of Japanese and Italian cuisine that was created in Tokyo in the 1960s. It’s simple preparation, and delicious taste has made it a household staple all over Japan. For this version of the classic Japanese pasta, I make the sauce using Mentaiko (spicy cod roe), olive oil, half & half, and Parmigiano-Reggiano. When the spaghetti is cooked, it gets drained and toss with the sauce to make for a creamy pasta that’s brimming with umami. #japanesepasta #japaneserecipe #mentaiko
