      Title: Gochujang Buttered Noodles
 Categories: Pasta, Vegetables, Chilies, Herbs
      Yield: 4 servings
 
      1 lb Spaghetti or other long
           - pasta
      6 tb Unsalted butter
     12 cl Garlic; fine chopped
           Salt & black pepper
    1/4 c  Gochujang paste; not sauce
    1/4 c  Honey
    1/4 c  Sherry or rice vinegar
           Fine chopped cilantro; opt
           +=OR=+
           Thin sliced scallions; opt
 
  Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the spaghetti
  
  and cook according to package instructions. Reserve 1
  cup of the cooking water. Drain the spaghetti and return
  to its pot.
  
  While the pasta cooks, melt 4 tablespoons of the butter
  in a skillet over medium-low. Add the garlic and season
  generously with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until
  the garlic starts to soften but not brown, 1 to 3
  minutes.
  
  Stir in the gochujang, honey and vinegar, and bring to a
  simmer over medium-high. Cook, stirring constantly,
  until the mixture reduces significantly, 3 to 4 minutes;
  when you drag a spatula across the bottom of the pan, it
  should leave behind a trail that stays put for about 3
  seconds. Remove from the heat.
  
  Transfer the sauce to the pot with the spaghetti and add
  the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Vigorously stir
  until the butter melts. Add splashes of the pasta
  cooking water, as needed, to thin out the sauce. Taste
  and season with salt and pepper. Top with the cilantro
  or scallions (if using) and serve immediately.
