BROWN BUTTER SPAGHETTI WITH GREEK (MIZITHRA) CHEESE
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.

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.
MIZITHRA BROWNED BUTTER PASTA
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.
