Soy Sauce and Brown Butter Brussels Sprouts Pasta
Recipe by Hetty Lui McKinnon | Total time: 30 minutes With cues from wafu pasta, the Japanese-style style of cooking that brings together global and Japanese flavors, this indulgent weeknight dish delivers a powerful umami kick thanks to the combination of butter and soy sauce. Maximize the potential of butter by browning it to produce a headier sauce with nutty notes; adding soy sauce produces a caramel-like richness. A stainless steel skillet, or one with a light colored cooking surface, is preferred so you have a visual cue of the milk solids darkening. Slicing the brussels sprouts helps them cook quickly, while also giving more surface area and edges for browning. This is an adaptable recipe, so it is possible to add other or more vegetables to balance the richness of the buttery soy sauce; mushrooms, spinach, kale and broccoli are all good options.
