Recipe for Mentaiko Pasta (Cod Spaghetti)
Serious Mealtimes / Amanda Suarez
Can drunken eating be a thing of beauty? Not to your hungry naked eyes no I don’t mean that—anything edible looks beautiful to them. I mean something that is truly a feast for the eyes. I believe the answer is yes and I present to you Exhibit A: Japanese mentaiko spaghetti. Just look at that creamy glaze on those perfectly cooked noodles and that bright blob of mentaiko the spicy pickled pollack roe for which the dish is named. Appreciate the shreds of nori lightly adorning the mound of pasta like cloudy wisps gathering on the summit of Mount Fuji on a crisp winter’s day.*
*What do you mean am I drunk? Can't I get poetic every now and then?
