Shrimp with Black Garlic and Miso Linguine

 This was quite easy to prepare, especially if you have all of the ingredients ready to begin (mise en place).

Black Garlic can be found in many Asian foods grocery stores.  Slavery-Free shrimp, from Argentina, is available at Gimli Fish.

Serves 2 people 

1/4 cup butter, slowly brown in large skillet

small zucchini, sliced

2-3 black garlic heads, thinly sliced

1 tbs light miso

6 large Pink shrimp per person, shelled and cleaned.

1 shallot, finely chopped

White wine, to deglaze the pan

salt and white pepper

Linguine, per person

Have pasta pot ready to cook linguine in salted water.

Brown the butter on medium low heat, and add the chopped shallot.  When translucent, add the sliced black garlic and light miso.  Incorporate well, and add the sliced zucchini and increase the heat to medium high, stirring well.  When well incorporated, drop pasta into the boiling salted water.  When the pasta has about 6 minutes remaining, put the shrimp into the skillet on medium high heat.  Season and stir.  Add the white wine to the skillet.  

Drain the linguine and place into the skillet, tossing well.  Serve immediately with some Parmesan Reggiano.  

Enjoy!
