      Title: Mushroom Wafu Pasta
 Categories: Pasta, Vegetables, Mushrooms, Sauces
      Yield: 5 servings
 
           Salt & black pepper
      1 lb Spaghetti; pref bronze-cut
    1/4 c  Extra-virgin olive oil
      8 tb Unsalted butter
      6 cl Garlic; minced
      1 lb Shiitake mushrooms; stems
           - trimmed(if dry), separated
           - & torn by hand
    1/4 c  Soy sauce
      3    Scallions; fine sliced, as
           - garnish
           Shredded, roasted nori or
           - 1/2 of a nori sheet in
           - thin matchsticks, garnish
 
  Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Cook
  pasta until 1 minute shy of al dente, according to the
  package directions. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then
  drain.
  
  While pasta cooks, make the sauce: In a large skillet,
  heat olive oil and 4 tablespoons of butter over medium.
  When the butter is melted and starts to foam, add garlic
  and mushrooms. Cook, stirring only occasionally to
  ensure garlic doesn't burn, until mushrooms start
  browning on the edges, about 6 to 7 minutes. Season
  w/1/2 tS salt and about 12 to 15 cranks of pepper. If
  the pasta is still cooking, remove the skillet from the
  heat and set aside until pasta is ready.
  
  Return the skillet to medium low. Push the mushrooms to
  one side of the skillet. Add remaining 4 tablespoons
  butter and soy sauce, allowing butter to melt into the
  soy sauce before combining with the mushrooms. Add pasta
  and ½ cup of the pasta water to the skillet, tossing to
  coat with the sauce. Cook, adding more pasta water 1
  tablespoon at a time as needed, until pasta is glossy,
  about 1 minute.
  
  Remove from heat. Top with sliced scallions and shredded
  nori. Serve immediately.
