Easy Pasta Bordelaise

[JudiB]

gosh this is making me hungry... no kidding, this is an awesome combo!!

Pasta Bordelaise

1 pack pasta
1 Tbl butter
5-6 green onions
white wine, about 1 cup
minced garlic
salt & pepper
parsley


Sautee garlic, onions, parsley in butter till translucent, add wine

Pour over pasta when ready to serve


Cook pasta accordingly

(I add mushrooms)

In fact, I made this tonight... but instead of pasta I used some spaghetti squash that I had baked the other day. Deeeelicious.

How many sticks of butter does it take to fill a cup?:eek:

[Admin]

If my math is right, and I think it is, 1 cup of butter is two sticks (8 Tbl. of butter in a stick). What I call a pat is less than 1 Tbl.

lol ok, a pat of butter in my head would be about a tablespoon..there are two sticks of butter to a cup...so...which do I use?

[JudiB]

Admin... sorry for the confusion.

When this recipe was first mentioned on another forum, I snagged it and stashed it in my recipe site, the way it was written.. copied it and pasted it.

However... I use a pat of butter... just enough to saute the onions and mushrooms, without burning or sticking.

Better?

Making this for dinner tomorrow night..it sounds wonderful

[JudiB]

lol KC, I guess it depends on how much weight you carry.

I personally couldn't use a cup of butter in ANYTHING.
