Cacio e pepe is a symbol of Rome – like the Colosseum,
it's an institution. It embodies the soul of a city devoted to grandeur
and majesty but which never forgets the people, the simplicity of their
raucous neighborhoods. Like all things Roman, cacio e pepe also thrives on
controversy and interpretation. Tonnarelli, rigatoni, spaghetti, or even
mezze maniche. There are dozens and dozens of versions, some admit to
being adaptations, others insist they are the original recipe. They can be
found all over the city. They all have one thing in common, they all claim
they’re the best in Rome.
You will love this dish once you try it!
