CACIO E PEPE WITH LEMON



Cacio e Pepe with Lemon image

Cacio e pepe is practically synonymous with Pecorino Romano -- but Pecorino clumps when cooked. Add it at the end, instead, which also makes the most of its sharp flavor. Lemon adds spunk -- that is, acidity and freshness.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Coarse salt
8 ounces thick spaghetti or bucatini
1/2 stick unsalted butter, cut into 4 pieces, softened
3 ounces Grana Padano cheese, grated (1 cup)
2 teaspoons freshly cracked pepper (use a mortar and pestle or the coarsest setting on a grinder), plus more for garnish
3/4 ounce Pecorino Romano cheese, grated (1/4 cup)
1 small lemon (preferably Meyer)
High-quality extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add pasta, and cook until very al dente, about 2 minutes less than called for in package instructions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water before draining.
  • Transfer pasta to a 12-inch skillet (preferably nonstick). Add butter and 1/2 cup pasta water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. The heat helps the starch in the water meld with the fat from the butter, which prevents the Grana Padano from becoming stringy in the finished dish.
  • Reduce heat to low, and mix in Grana Padano and cracked pepper. Grana Padano is softer than Pecorino Romano; it will melt into the buttery water, creating a sauce as the pasta finishes cooking.
  • Toss pasta with tongs to thoroughly coat it with sauce. Keep everything at a gentle simmer just until cheese melts and sauce thickens slightly, about 1 minute.
  • Remove from heat, then stir in Pecorino Romano. (Always add Pecorino off direct heat; it clumps when cooked.) Zest lemon over the pasta. Any type of lemon will do, but a Meyer is particularly nice in this dish: It's sweeter in flavor and aroma, with back notes of orange and lime. At this time of year, you'll find Meyer lemons at specialty-food stores and some supermarkets.
  • If pasta looks dry, toss it with a bit more pasta water until it has a glossy coating. Divide between 2 warm bowls. Drizzle each with oil and lemon juice, and garnish with more cracked pepper. Serve immediately.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 ounces thick-cut dry pasta
Kosher salt
30 turns freshly ground black pepper, on the coarsest setting, plus more for serving
1/3 cup grated Pecorino-Romano cheese, plus more for serving
2 tablespoons high-quality extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • In a pan just wide enough to hold the pasta, place enough water to fill the pan 1 inch from the bottom. Season the water with a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Spread the pasta in the pan and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking together. Allow the pasta water to reduce; do not add more, as you want the starchy water to be minimal when the remaining ingredients are added.
  • Meanwhile, add the coarse black pepper to a separate small pan over medium heat. Toast a minute or two until fragrant.
  • Once the pasta is al dente and the pasta water has reduced so only a slight coating remains at the bottom of the pan, turn off the heat and add the toasted ground black pepper and Pecorino-Romano. Stir and toss vigorously until both ingredients are well incorporated into the pasta. Toss in the olive oil and season with salt.
  • Transfer the pasta to a large bowl and garnish with more black pepper, Pecorino-Romano and extra-virgin olive oil.

  • Whisk together the egg yolk, mascarpone and flaky salt in a bowl. Zest the lemon into the bowl, then halve the lemon and squeeze the juice of one half into the bowl. Stir in the cheese and black pepper.
  • While the pancetta is cooking, bring 4 quarts water to a boil in a large saucepan or stock pot and season with 2 tablespoons kosher salt. Add the pasta and cook until al dente. Drop the peas into the pot 2 minutes before draining. Scoop out and reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
  • Put the hot drained pasta back into the pot and toss with the butter until it melts. Whisk 1/4 cup of the cooking water into the egg yolk mixture until smooth, then pour over the pasta and toss together with tongs.
