Sept DOTM #1: Truffle Kombu Angel Hair

Settling on one Dish of the Month (DOTM) wasn’t easy. It was a toss up between the Mushroom Risotto and Truffle Kombu Angel Hair... so you lucky folks, you are getting not one, but two DOTMs. Woop woop! 

It’s stinkingly easy - well, on hindsight. However, while preparing the dish, I was anxious as hell, as the dish tasted so blaaaaaaand while I was making it. Finally, I threw caution to the wind and seasoned the pasta generously. Do that, you won't regret it. I always run into last-minute scrambles so I love how this recipe can be made in advance, sitting pretty in the chiller while you make a mad dash for the other ingredients.
