Spaghetti Cacio e Pepe

Pasta cacio e pepe ("cheese and pepper") is made with Pecorino Romano, a tangy aged sheep's-milk cheese originally from Rome, and lots of freshly ground black pepper. In Lazio, chef Antonio Ciminelli of Osteria Fontana Candida serves an elegant version with short pasta on the menu, and a rustic one with spaghetti for staff.

Ingredients:

  • ¾ pound spaghetti
  • ¾ cup freshly grated pecorino romano cheese
  • ⅓ cup freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
  • 1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper
  • salt

Direction

  1. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the cheeses.
  2. Return the pasta to the pot. Working quickly, add 6 tablespoons of the reserved cooking water, 2 tablespoons at a time, alternating with the cheeses; toss well to thoroughly coat the pasta between additions. Sprinkle on the black pepper and season the pasta with salt; toss again.
  3. Transfer the pasta to a warmed serving bowl. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of cooking water, as necessary, tossing until a creamy sauce forms. Serve right away.

Loaded Potato Focaccia

There are few things in life I love more than a fully loaded potato with sour cream, scallions, lots of cheese, and crispy bacon. Add that on top of another fluffy carb, and I’m in heaven. This recipe was inspired by the famous Sally’s Apizza, one of the most beloved makers of New Haven-style pizza. They have a Potato & Rosemary pie that I love. My take is a little more kid-friendly, thanks to the Cheddar cheese and bacon. The key is to cut the potatoes thinly and evenly so they have time to cook through in the oven. I like to cook this until the potatoes start to crisp a little on top, offering the best of both worlds: creamy and crunchy potatoes!
