Instructions
Cook spaghetti according to package directions.
While spaghetti is cooking, heat the 1 tablespoon butter or margarine in a large skillet.

Add salt and butter to taste, and sprinkle with remaining parsley.
Recommended wine: Chianti, Trebbiano, Verdicchio
Italian works really well with Chianti, Trebbiano, and Verdicchio. Italians know food and they know wine. Trebbiano and Verdicchio are Italian white wines that pair well with fish and white meat, while Chianti is a great Italian red for heavier, bolder dishes. The Tenuta di Nozzole La Forra Chianti Classico Riserva with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 34 dollars per bottle.
