Fr. Z’s Kitchen: Wherein I received a message from on high about supper

I am taking this as a sign from God.

Today I receive in my email a photo from a priest who made cacio e pepe.

Nice.

A little while later I find another email from a very well-known Catholic writer with this!

Okay…. tonight….

CACIO E PEPE!

UPDATE

Time for supper.

Thanks to the kind person who sent the Crodino from my wishlist!

Sometimes, I give the peppercorns a little toast.

Into the small grinder.

Cook your pasta in less water if possible, so that it will have a higher starch content.

Start blending in the grated pecorino romano and ground pepper with a little bit, just a touch of the cooking water.  Repeat until you have your desired consistency

With lovely little flat parsley leaves from my pots of herbs out in the quad.

    I didn’t know it had a name but that dish is what I lived on in college. I called it ‘bachelor pasta’ cuz it was so easy.

  2. The dish aside (which did look delicious), the most impressive part of this post is the mirror-like quality of your militarily polished shoes. Bravo Zulu.
