Hi Masha! I made this with Parmesan recently and liked it just as much, so I think you made the right choice! Thanks for writing.

I had no pecorino (which is very expensive around here, anyway) so I used parmesan, which changes it completely, I’m sure… but the result was delicious. If I can someday afford pecorino, I’ll try the original.

Sounds delicious! There is a restaurant in NYC called Cacio e Pepe and this is their signature dish.

I make a variation of this recipe- I simply boil the pasta (I prefer spinach fettucini for mine) and put it in a big bowl. I then add about a Tbsp. of margarine, Pecorino to taste (a little more than a cup) and ground black pepper. I mix them all together and then add the arugula straight to the mixture. The arugula melts beautifully and it is absolutely delicious!

This looks like such an elegant and simple dish.
Sounds perfect on any busy night. I think I would have added a few cherry tomatoes.

Now here’s a dish that even I can make – in my 12-foot square NYC kitchen with hotplate — lol.

Thanks for the idea.

Yay pasta machines, I am sure that fresh pasta will make this recipe even more delicious!

I’m all for trying this one – I’m in such a pasta mood lately. It’ll probably be a great opportunity to get out my pasta machine again, too!

Yes, Beth, it is from an Ina Garten recipe. Sort of. I made some changes but it is essentially the same idea. It is really good!

Is this from Ina’s latest cookbook? I believe I saw a similar recipe in there…YUM.

This looks delicious! Tonight I am making some dreaded chicken tortellini (from the freezer). I have been avoiding it! I would like to toss it lightly with some fresh tomato bruschetta dip (Xmas present) and fresh parm. Thanks for making pasta look delish. Maybe mine will be as edible as yours!

Oh yum. Looks so good. I’m all about the easy pasta nights…
