Mentaiko Pasta (明太子パスタ) is a modern Japanese dish made with mentaiko (spicy cod roe) and spaghetti. This is a lighter version of the classic Japanese pasta that doesn’t use cream. Instead, I make a sauce with olive oil and mentaiko that gets tossed with the hot pasta and a small pat of butter to create a rich, velvety sauce that’s neither heavy nor cloying.
