Ingredients
Kosher salt
12 ounces spaghetti
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large shallot, minced
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 5-ounce container brie cheese spread
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
4 ounces deli-sliced Black Forest ham, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
Coarsely ground pepper
Directions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook as the label directs for al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
- Meanwhile, combine the olive oil and shallot in a large pot over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallot is softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the wine and simmer until mostly reduced, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cheese spread, mustard, ham, spaghetti and 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water. Cook, tossing, until the spaghetti is coated with the sauce, 1 to 2 minutes, adding more cooking water as needed to loosen (the pasta will absorb the sauce as it sits). Season with salt, add the parsley and toss again.
- Divide the spaghetti among shallow bowls. Spoon any remaining sauce on top and season generously with pepper.
