How to Make Halloween Pasta
- Cook pasta according to package directions, adding 10-20 drops of green food coloring to the boiling water during the last 2 minutes of cooking. For a more vibrant green, add a few extra drops after draining and toss to combine.
- While the pasta cooks, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to create a roux.
- Gradually whisk in milk until smooth.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer, stirring frequently, until thickened.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Reduce heat to low and stir in Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy.
- Stir in 10 drops of orange food coloring until desired color is achieved.
- Drain the pasta and add it to the orange cream sauce, tossing to coat.
- Serve immediately, garnished with black sesame seeds.
