  1. Isn't it wonderful what a tasteful dish we can make with so little ingredients?!

  2. I eat cacio e pepe almost weekly. But, most Italians would faint if they heard, it’s frozen and I heat it up in the microwave

  3. I see why adding butter would be overkill. There's plenty of fat already from the cheese.

  4. I think this Italian chef knows more about Cacio e Pepe than randoms in YouTube comments 😂

  5. Why does he specify the material of the pan he is using? Which influence has this on the overall dish?
