Bring a large pot of water to a boil; salt it. Cook pasta until it is
tender, but not quite done.
Meanwhile, place butter in a skillet or saucepan large enough to
hold the cooked pasta; turn heat to medium, and add sage and
onion. Cook until butter turns nut-brown, onions are translucent,
and sage shrivels, then turn heat to a minimum.
When the pasta is just about done, scoop out a cup of the
cooking water. Drain the pasta. Immediately add it to the butter-
sage mixture, and raise heat to medium. Add 3/4 cup of the
water, and stir; the mixture will be loose and a little soupy. Cook
for about 30 seconds, or until some of the water is absorbed and
the pasta is perfectly done.
Stir in cheese; the sauce will become creamy. Thin it with a little
more water if necessary. Season liberally with pepper and salt to
taste, and serve immediately, passing more cheese at the table if
you like.
