Instructions
- Prep: In a pot, start boiling water. Grate Grana Padano.
- In a large pan on low-medium heat, place freshly ground/cracked pepper in the pan. There should be a large amount, and after a few minutes you should really smell the pepper toasting, filling your kitchen with a strong aromatic pepper smell.
- Place pasta in boiling water. When it is nearly cooked, take pasta and pasta water and put it in the pan with the ground pepper. Once pasta and pasta water are in the pan, immediately throw in the grated grana padano cheese. Make sure the heat is not too strong or you will overcook your pasta and burn the cheese.
