straight out of the fridge)
i rather enjoyed uni in pasta

Bucatini with Fresh Uni
(please adjust measurements according to taste)
1/2 package dried Rustichella d'Abruzzo bucatini
1 tsp red chili flake
3 Tbsp olive oil
3 or 4 pieces fresh uni (sea urchin roe)
1/4 c fresh parsley, chopped
2 Tbsp fresh chives, chopped
2 Tbsp fresh lemon zest, finely grated
salt to taste
Boil pot of salted water. Once boiling, add noodles. Cook until 90% done. In separate pot, add 1 Tbsp olive oil and chili flake. Toast for 1-2 minutes on med-high heat. Once noodles are almost fully cooked, transfer them to pot with chili flake, adding about 1/2 c pasta water. Allow noodles to cook fully, adding remaining olive oil and tossing. Once liquid is absorbed, remove pot from heat. Add parsley, chives, & lemon zest. Break uni apart into small pieces (about 1 tsp) and sprinkle over pasta. Toss for a couple of minutes, until uni melts and whole pieces are no longer visible. Season with salt and serve.
