Kim Milan's Cacio e Pepe

A traditional Roman pasta using a lukewarm water mixing technique and starch utilization to reduce cheese separation and clumping failures

Ingredients needed 1 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • If you add water that is too hot to the cheese, it will melt and separate into oil and clumps, so use lukewarm or warm water.
  • If the sauce consistency is perfect, it will easily clump while eating, so it's key to keep it slightly thin when you turn off the heat.

Recommended for

  • Those who have experienced failure with cacio e pepe due to cheese clumping or separating.
  • Those who want to properly master an authentic Italian pasta that creates deep umami using only cheese and pepper.
