Cook pasta in well salted water according to package directions, about 3-5 minutes.
While the pasta is cooking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; add garlic cloves; cook over medium heat until butter foams, giving the pan an occasional swirl.* Once butter foams, keep a close eye on it. The color will change from yellow to tan and then to brown. When it turns brown, immediately remove it from the heat. Discard the garlic cloves. Pour it over the cooked pasta.
Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted.
Serve hot, garnished with minced parsley, chives or tarragon.
6 servings.
*For a little heat, add in a little red pepper flakes.
