Pasta Cacio E Pepe: So simple yet so good!

Filed under:


My latest favorite recipe find is a super simple but very tasty pasta dish.



Boil spaghetti noodles (I prefer angel hair) in heavily salted water until al dente (7-8 minutes or so).

Drain noodles and plate immediately.

Grate tons of pecarino romano cheese (available in the specialty cheese section of your grocery store) on top of the noodles and then a generous portion of freshly ground black pepper.

Add a spoonful or so of the still-hot pasta water and toss. (The heat of the noodles will melt the cheese)

Serve immediately.


You can't believe how amazingly simply and delicious this is. I am salivating just thinking about it.

Note: I'm not putting any exact measurements for these ingredients because it's best done to your individual tastes. Just don't skimp on the cheese or pepper.
