Made some Cacio e Pepe because my fridge was empty and it was the most satisfying comfort food I’ve had in a while, wolfed it down in 5 mins

    I used Monograno “Matt” Penne Ritorte because it was on sale, 50:50 Pecorino Romano and Parmigiano 12 months aged.

    Toast pepper in pan, while heating pasta. Put pasta water in the pan after pepper is toasted and let it boil, it will increase thickness of the sauce.

    After pasta is done, drain and toss in pan, let cool for 1-2 mins. Then slowly add grated cheese into the mix and toss vigorously, adding pasta water if necessary. Serve and eat immediately.
