MIZITHRA BROWNED BUTTER PASTA



Mizithra Browned Butter Pasta image

A Greek cheese made with the whey from Feta and Kefalotiri, along with sheep and cow's milk, which is used to enrich the cheese. It is sold both fresh and aged. Fresh Mizithra is soft, resembling cottage cheese and the aged is shaped like a large egg and is firm with a pungent aroma and mild flavor. The aged cheese, known as Xinomyzithra, makes a perfect grating cheese. Mizithra is also spelled Myzithra. If fresh mizithra is not available, ricotta can be used for a similar texture.

SPAGHETTI FACTORY BROCCOLI, BROWNED BUTTER & MIZITHRA CHEESE



Spaghetti Factory Broccoli, Browned Butter & Mizithra Cheese image

This was something my kids (4 and 2) just loved so much at the restaurant that they gobbled up the whole dish. I did get to try a few bites and figured it was easy enough to try at home. It is very simple and if you can't find Myzithra cheese (it's a Greek goat or sheep cheese) I guess you could sub with Parmesan. The amounts are approximate, please adjust to your taste or amount of broccoli being used! For the butter you can always throw in another chunk to melt if it doesn't look like it's enough for your broccoli. Same with the cheese. If you use unsalted butter you can throw in a tiny pinch of salt. Please use real butter for best results!

BROWN BUTTER SPAGHETTI WITH GREEK (MIZITHRA) CHEESE



Brown Butter Spaghetti With Greek (Mizithra) Cheese image

I remember this as being the de facto side dish, with a salad, to any lamb dish I had growing up, in my Greek grandparents' house. I make it quite often, and have never had a recipe, so beware, the measurements may be a bit off. I sometimes don't add the garlic and oregano, but they do add a nice zing to the dish.

Provided by Lizzie-Babette

Categories     Spaghetti

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup grated mizithra cheese
8 ounces spaghetti
4 tablespoons butter (do not substitute margarine, or to taste)
2 teaspoons minced garlic (optional)
2 teaspoons oregano (optional)
fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Cook spaghetti until al dente.
  • Drain spaghetti and leave in colander or drainer.
  • Put butter (and garlic and oregano, if using) into hot pan and put it back on the burner, making sure heat is medium to medium-high.
  • Stirring constantly, cook butter until it's a nice, light to medium brown.
  • Remove pan from heat.
  • Quickly return spaghetti to pan, turning to coat the strands with the butter; the spaghetti should glisten with the light coating of butter.
  • At this point, you can add a bit more butter if you like.
  • Once butter coats spaghetti, add cheese and mix well, so that bits of the mizithra are sticking to the spaghetti evenly.
  • Grind a bit of pepper over the dish and mix again.
  • Serve with extra mizithra and pepper.

  • Cook pasta according to directions listed on package (I'd recommend beginning with very hot tap water to boil the pasta as this will cut the time you have to wait for the water to boil). Meanwhile, place butter in a light-colored, small saucepan over medium heat.
  • Cook butter, swirling pan occasionally, until it has browned begin with sliced butter to ensure even melting.*
  • Drain cooked pasta well (DO NOT rinse the pasta with water or the butter won't stick). Plate pasta, pour browned butter over pasta (sediments on bottom and all), sprinkle with Mizithra cheese and toss if desired to evenly coat.
  • Serve immediately, you can also serve it with fresh cracked black pepper and chopped fresh parsley if desired (I don't think any salt is needed because the Mizithra is a pretty salty cheese).

BROWN BUTTER SPAGHETTI WITH GREEK (MIZITHRA) CHEESE RECIPE
This dish is worth a trip to a gourmet shop or Italian market to find an out-of-the-ordinary pasta such as fusilli col buco. Liquid served from braising vegetables makes a light, brothy sauce for the noodles. If you prefer your pasta on the drier side, don’t add all the braising liquid when stirring the vegetables into the pasta.
