La Vera cacio e pepe 🇮🇹 ricetta originale

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Add spaghetti to the boiling water and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes.

Reserve 1 cup of pasta cooking water, then drain the spaghetti.

Return the drained spaghetti to the pot off the heat.

Grate pecorino romano cheese into the pot with the spaghetti.

Add freshly cracked black pepper to the pot.

Pour in a small amount of reserved pasta water and toss to combine.

Continue adding pasta water gradually while tossing until a creamy sauce forms.

Taste and adjust seasoning with more cheese or pepper as desired.

Serve immediately, garnished with extra cheese and black pepper.
