Ingredients
- 12 oz spaghettini, can substitute spaghetti or vermicelli
- Black Truffle Salt – Profine Food Stores
- 2 tbsp Black Truffle Oil – Profine Food Stores
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3-4 anchovy fillets
- 6 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- 2 tsp lemon zest
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of well salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta to package directions. Then drain and reserve about 1 cup of pasta water.
- While you are waiting for the water to boil/pasta to cook, make the sauce. Heat the Black Truffle oil and butter in a large skillet over medium low heat. Add the anchovies, garlic, and a sprinkle of Black Truffle salt and cook, stirring frequently until the garlic is soft and the anchovies have melted into the oil, about 3-4 minutes.
- Once the pasta is done, add it to the skillet with the pasta water, parsley, red pepper flakes, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Toss everything together over low heat until the sauce has become thick and clings to the pasta, about 2-3 minutes. Serve.
