MMMMM--------------------KIMCHI CHEESE SAUCE-------------------------
      5 tb Vegetable shortening or oil
      1 sm Onion; chopped
    1/2    Russet potato; thinly sliced
      2 cl Garlic; minced
    1/2    Jalapeño; sliced
      1    Chipotle pepper in adobo
           -sauce
      1 tb Gochujang
      1 ts Garlic powder
      1 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Korean chili powder or
           - paprika
    1/2 c  Water
      1 c  Cashews; soaked in water for
           - 4 hours to overnight
      3 tb Nutritional yeast
    1/2 c  Almond milk
      1 ts Pickled jalapeño juice
      2 ts Kimchi juice

MMMMM---------------------------PASTA--------------------------------
      1    Box brown rice pasta

MMMMM--------------------------TOPPINGS-------------------------------
    1/2 c  Bread crumbs
      1 tb Sesame oil; +1/2 tb
    1/2 ts Agave
    1/2 tb Gochujang
    1/2 c  Kimchi; ripened
      1 ts Toasted sesame seeds
 
  Cooking time: 45 minutes
  
  In a small pot, melt vegetable shortening and add onions and garlic.
  Cook until softened. Then add potatoes, jalapeño, chipotle,
  gochujang and seasoning. Stir until potatoes start to soften and all
  vegetables are evenly coated.
  
  Deglaze the bottom of the pot with water and bring to boil. Cook until
  potatoes are tender.
  
  Empty contents of pot into high powered blender. Add remaining
  ingredients and blend on high for a few minutes, until creamy and
  smooth.
  
  Cook pasta until al dente. Reserve ~1/4 cup of pasta water before
  draining. In the same pot that you cooked the pasta with, add pasta
  and cheese sauce, as well as a little pasta water in case sauce gets
  too dry. Scoop pasta into oven safe container. I used two cast iron
  pans.
  
  For breadcrumb topping, mix breadcrumbs, salt, and 1/2 tb sesame oil
  until breadcrumbs are nicely coated. Sprinkle over the top of the
  pasta.
  
  Place in 450°F oven until breadcrumbs are golden brown, 15 to
       20    minutes.
  
  In the meantime, heat up 1 tb sesame oil in a small skillet. Add
  kimchi, gochujang, and agave and saute until kimchi is caramelized.
  
  Add caramelized kimchi to baked pasta. Sprinkle with toasted sesame
  seeds.
