I just got back from Atlanta where I spent my Saturday at Create + Cultivate speaking on a panel about food in the digital space with some women I admire a whole lot.
It sounds a lil’ cheesy but I left Saturday feeling so ridiculously inspired and really excited to try harder, try new things and all at the same time super grateful for everything. I also realized that while I love men, my favorite is women company. I work with mainly women, most of my friends are women and I really like it that way.
When I got back last night from traveling—which actually was pretty easy–all I wanted was a big bowl of autumn-like comfort. I didn’t have this in front of me because of course I made this a week ago, but I wanted it to be!
This pasta is Meike’s beautiful new book, Eat In My Kitchen. This pasta is so simple to make. And orange and brown butter is one of my favorite flavor combinations yet I had never had it in a savory capacity but it is SO GOOD. And I’m definitely going to try it again some other way (just not sure how). This book is so pretty.
The wild mushrooms—if you can’t find oysters and chanterelles—can easily be replaced with trusty creminis or button mushrooms.
I also want to put crispy sage on every single thing right now. I kinda even want to put sage in sweet stuff. But that might be a little too weird. Maybe I’ll try it this week and you should try this.

Ingredients
- 7 ounces dried spaghetti
- Olive oil
- Unsalted butter
- 4 ounces chantrelles cut in half lengthwise
- 4 ounces king oyster mushrooms cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- Salt
- Freshly ground pepper
- 15 fresh sage leaves
- 5 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice from about 1 orange
- Freshly grated orange zest from 1 orange
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the spaghetti, according to the package instructions, until al dente. Drain the spaghetti and drizzle a teaspoon of olive oil atop; toss the pasta (this will help it from sticking) and set aside.
- In a large pan, heat 3 tablespoons of butter over high heat. Add the mushrooms and sauté, stirring constantly, for 3 to 5 minutes or until al dente and golden. Season to taste with salt and a few turns of freshly ground pepper and then transfer to a medium bowl.
- Place the pan over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of butter, and fry the sage for about 30 seconds or until crisp and golden but not dark. Transfer the sage to a plate. Add the orange juice and deglaze the pan, using a spatula to scrape any bits and pieces off the bottom. Add the pasta and mushrooms to the pan, stir to combine, and season to taste with salt, pepper, and orange zest. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan-Reggiano, crispy sage and serve immediately.

Recipe from Eat in My Kitchen
new fall meal
one pan maple mustard roasted potatoes with fresh carrots, mushroom, apple, chicken apple sausage, and sage
My favorite fall meal is stuffed Hungarian peppers with marinara and balsamic drizzle! You can use any mixture of cheeses and breadcrumbs or even add Italian sausage.
I want to try and make this browned butter the orange notes sound amazing 🙂
I’ve been following your IG but this is the first recipe I’ve ever made from your website. My reaction: “Wow!!” I don’t usually love pastas but this was so good! I loved the flavor of this (even though I subbed lemon for orange bc I didn’t have orange on hand). I topped it off with some chicken meatballs for the meat-lovers in my house. I can’t wait to try more from your blog!! Thanks so much!
I love beef stew!
When Autumn comes, I can’t wait to make my Carrot Curry Soup. It’s so easy and bursting with flavors! I suppose I could make it any time but it just has this perfect October feel to it.
Favorite fall meal, hmmm….anything pumpkin? Lol. Butternut squash cream soup, does that count? 😉
As soon as the weather turns crisp, chili is cooking on my stovetop!
I make soups…..hearty ones. Lots of vegetables meat of your choice.

Doris Greenspan’s pumpkin stuffed with everything good!
I really love making a goof loaf of crusty bread and having any soup – especially something like Rebar’s carmelized red onion soup!
That pot is gorgeous! I love good old-fashioned chili 🙂
Red wine pot roast!
