Cacio e pepe from Six Seasons of Pasta: A New Way with Everyone's Favorite Food (page 106) by Joshua McFadden and Martha Holmberg

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Can substitute bucatini or linguine for spaghetti.

    Very creamy from the amount of cheese and very peppery. My husband’s favorite variation of this dish.

    Had no issues with emulsification but found there to be way too much water added in the pasta finishing step, so the sauce was too thin. Served with broccolini.
