About This Dish 

An iconic dish of the ‘Eternal City’ Roma, cacio e pepe or pasta de pepe simply translates to cheese and pepper pasta. While this dish is definitely not as well known as other Roman classics like spaghetti alla carbonara, it is cheesy indulgence at its finest. Cacio e pepe proves you don’t need a long list of elaborate ingredients to create a sauce full of flavour.
The traditional base for this sauce sees the inclusion of just two ingredients: black pepper and pecorino Romano cheese. The result is a deceptively simplistic sauce packed with flavour, much like a stripped-back ‘mac n cheese’, but suitably more rustic and Italian in spirit. Cheese lovers, this recipe is for you!
