Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil over high heat—season with 1 pasta rock according to package directions. Add pasta and cook according to package directions. Cover pasta and set aside.

  2. Meanwhile, add butter and melt in a large sauté pan over medium heat.

  3. Add mushrooms, sage, and dipper to the pan. Cook until butter has browned and mushrooms have softened about 8-10 minutes.

  4. Toss pasta with browned butter and mushroom sauce. Finish with balsamic vinegar and serve immediately.

Recipe Note:

 Browning butter toasted the milk solids inside the butter, creating a sweet and nutty flavor. Browning butter is a great way to add extra depth to dishes. Try adding browned butter to baked goods, topping popcorn, or simply any other dish that calls for butter!
