Brown butter walnut pasta

Pasta and macaroni Italian cuisine

This is one of those simple simple simple ingredients that I make when I don't want to give more than 2 seconds thought to dinner. I always have the ingredients, it is ready in two shakes, it couldn't be easier to make, and most importantly, it tastes like HEAVEN. The heaven part is due to the miracle of brown butter, which is butter that has been lovingly melted on the stove until it turns, yes, brown. Brown butter has a nutty taste that is indescribably delicious, so I won't even try...but it did give me the idea of adding some nuts to this pasta dish. Just when I thought heaven couldn't get any more heavenly...it did.
