Cacio e pepe
Italian 5 Mins Prep · 15 Mins Cook
- Fill a large pot halfway with water and season with the salt. Use a little less water than you usually would, as this will concentrate the starch released into the water and help thicken the sauce.
- Heat the butter in a medium-sized non-stick pan. Add the ground pepper. Sauté until the pepper is fragrant and starts to sizzle. Turn off the heat.
- Cook the pasta for 1 minute less than package instructions.
- Add 4 tablespoons of the pasta water to the pan and return to a medium heat. Stir to combine.
- Using tongs, place the bucatini in the pan and toss to coat. Add another 60-80ml of the pasta water to the pan to reach your desired consistency.
- Grate in the cheese and serve.
