miso butter pasta

perfect for a quick lunch!! - may need to adjust the amount of miso paste according to taste - also may need to adjust the amount of pasta according to portion size (this makes pretty considerable portions) - don’t salt the pasta water too much because of the miso paste - use a pasta shape that holds sauce well (i like fusilli)
