Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add salt to it.

Add pasta to the boiling water and stir for about 30 seconds to prevent sticking.

In a skillet, melt butter over low heat until it starts to bubble and turn nutty.

Add about 2 tablespoons of miso paste to the melted butter and stir.

Add crushed red pepper to the miso and butter mixture.

Slowly whisk in reserved pasta water to help combine and thicken the sauce.

Add shrimp to the skillet and cook on low heat until done, which may take longer than usual due to the low heat.

Once the shrimp is cooked, add the cooked pasta back into the skillet and mix everything together.
