About Cacio e pepe pasta
Cacio e Pepe is a classic Italian pasta dish originating from Rome, celebrated for its simplicity and bold flavors. The name translates to "cheese and pepper," highlighting its core ingredients: freshly ground black pepper and Pecorino Romano cheese, combined with pasta and starchy cooking water to create a creamy sauce without the use of cream. Traditionally made with spaghetti or tonnarelli, this dish is rich in carbohydrates and provides a good source of calcium and protein from the cheese. However, it is high in sodium and saturated fats due to the Pecorino cheese, making moderation key for a balanced diet. Its minimal ingredient list ensures no additives or processed components, aligning with traditional Mediterranean dietary principles. Ideal for those seeking a comforting and quick meal, Cacio e Pepe is a testament to the beauty of simplicity in Italian cuisine.
