Cacio e pepe recipe

IDS Arts Editor, Audrey Perkins demonstrates how to make cacio e pepe in her weekly video recipe.

Cacio e pepe

This traditional Italian dish, translated into English as cheese and pepper, is an easy five-minute recipe. Similar to macaroni and cheese in texture and flavor, this is a go to recipe for those that don’t have much time or experience cooking, but want something completely homemade.

Ingredients: 

? Medium sized handful of spaghetti or thin linguini. Should be about a cup of cooked pasta

? 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

? ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

? 1 egg, optional

Step 1: Cook the pasta until it is tender and doesn’t have a crunch.

Step 2: Add the last three ingredients, mix well.
