Caccio e Pepe

This dish is probably the quickest and most simple way to prepare a pasta dish. Not only that, it's deliciously creamy and super comforting on a cold day. It's the perfect meal for the end of the month if you're scrimping a little! Here's how to make it:

Ingredients (for 4 people):

• 6 oz. spaghetti 
• 3 tbsp butter
• 1 tbsp  black pepper
• 3/4 cup Parmesan 
• 3/4 cup Pecorino 

1. In a bowl, mix the cheese. Grind over the black pepper and mix again.
2. Cook the spaghetti al dente and remove from the pot using tongs (as opposed to a collinder) and place on top of the cheese and pepper mix. 
3. Mix all the ingredients together, adding 2 tbsp of the pasta cooking water. Mix again and season with extra salt and pepper (and cheese!) if desired.
4. Enjoy.
