Delicious Giada De Laurentiis Cacio E Pepe You’ll Love
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound Nodi Marini or Spaghetti
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese
- 1 cup Pecorino Romano Cheese
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the Nodi Marini or spaghetti until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Be sure to reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
- In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add freshly ground black pepper and allow it to cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add the drained pasta to the skillet, tossing it gently to coat the noodles in the buttery pepper mix.
- Gradually sprinkle in the freshly grated Pecorino Romano and Parmesan cheese. Stir consistently, adding a small amount of the reserved pasta water until the cheese melts and creates a creamy sauce.
- Plate the Cacio E Pepe immediately, topping each serving with extra cheese and a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper.
