Buttered noodles are a simple, delicious meal all on their own, but they also make an outstanding foundation for something a bit fancier, like Stroganoff, stews, or Swedish meatballs. Just 2 ingredients!

Ingredients

  • 16 ouncesegg noodles ((see note 1))
  • ¼ cupbutter ((1/2 stick, or to taste, see note 2))
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper ((see note 3))

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large pot over high heat, bring 4 quarts water and 1 tablespoon salt to boil. Add noodles and cook until tender, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain well.

  2. 2

    Off heat, add butter to pot. Add drained noodles and toss until butter is melted and noodles are evenly coated. Season to taste with salt and pepper (I like 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper). Garnish with Parmesan cheese and parsley if desired.
