Buttered Noodles

I've heard about this mythical 'buttered noodles' but I have never experienced it. Never. No, not ever.

My 'simple noodle' recipe is anchovy garlic crumbed noodles with parmesan and lemon. Yes, I know! This is why I'm asking about buttered noodles!

Anyway, I'm intrigued about the prevalence of buttered noodles throughout the DW world. Please answer and feel free to direct others of your persuasion here.

If you want to leave your best recipe for buttered noodles in the comments, please do! I mean, I imagine it pretty much amounts to:

1. boil noodles until cooked
2. cut off wedge of butter and add to noodles
3. stir
4. eat

But just in case it's more complicated than that...hit me up. I'm curious.
