Pasta With Mushrooms And Kasha

• Kosher salt and pepper
• 12 ounces farfalle pasta (about 4 1/2 cups)
• 1/2 cup kasha
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 onions, chopped
• 1 1/2 pounds button mushrooms, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley or dill, chopped
• 2 tablespoons butter

1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 1 tablespoon salt. Add the pasta and kasha and cook until the pasta is al dente and the kasha is just tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water, drain, and return the pasta and kasha to the pot.
2. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
3. Add the mushroom mixture to the drained pasta and kasha. Stir in the parsley, butter, reserved pasta water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
4. Note: This is a classic Eastern European Jewish dish called kasha varnishkes.
