Ingredients (2 servings)

1
Lightly squeeze and chop kimchi; pat tofu dry and cut into small cubes.
2
Cook farfalle in salted water until al dente, reserving 3/4 cup pasta water.
3
Melt olive oil and butter, sauté garlic, then cook kimchi until excess moisture evaporates.
4
Add tofu and sear lightly, then pour in cream and milk and bring to a gentle simmer.
5
Stir in Parmesan, then toss with pasta and pasta water to reach a silky consistency.
6
Finish with black pepper, toss for 1 more minute, and serve immediately.

Too much kimchi juice can split the cream sauce.

Dry tofu well so it browns and tastes nuttier.
