INSTRUCTIONS

1 For the Furikake, toast sesame seeds in small dry skillet on medium heat about 2 minutes or just until lightly toasted, stirring occasionally. Remove from skillet; cool completely. Place sesame seeds, bonito flakes, nori, sugar and sea salt in food processor. Pulse several times until mixture is well blended. Set aside.
2 For the Bucatini Pasta, bring large pot of salted water to boil. Add bucatini and cook as directed on package for al dente. Drain well, reserving 1 cup of pasta water.
3 Meanwhile, whisk eggs and cheese in small bowl; set aside. Whisk soy sauce and miso paste in separate small bowl; set aside. Place green onion in small heat-proof bowl. Set aside.
4 Heat olive oil in large deep skillet on medium heat. Add sliced garlic, stirring to coat in oil. Cook just until crispy, about 2 minutes. Stir in crushed red pepper; cook 1 minute longer. Carefully pour hot chili crisp and oil into bowl with green onion, stirring to mix. Set aside.
5 Wipe skillet with clean paper towel and return to stovetop on medium-high heat. Add reserved pasta water and soy sauce mixture, whisking to blend. Add pasta and butter to skillet; toss until butter is melted and well blended with mixture in pan to coat pasta. Reduce heat to low. Add egg mixture and Furikake Seasoning, quickly tossing to coat pasta evenly. Tossing constantly, cook just until heated through.
6 To serve, place pasta in individual shallow serving bowls. Spoon chili crisp over top along with some of the oil. Sprinkle with remaining Furikake to garnish.
