This brown butter tomato pasta is where comfort meets sophistication. Sweet, blistered cherry tomatoes and fragrant brown butter come together in a glossy tomato paste sauce that coats every bite of rigatoni. Brightened with fresh basil and lemon zest, and finished with a sprinkle of Parmesan, it’s a cozy yet elevated pasta that feels special without requiring much effort.
