We have flavored our pasta for years. We have flavored the liquid we use to hydrate noodles. But for some reason we have not done much with the pasta cooking water. It took a what if moment to add miso to our pasta water. The miso added some savoriness to the noodles and the water itself was a flavorful addition to finishing the pasta in sauce. Is miso necessary in pasta water? Not at all. It's a delicious small touch.
