Twirl, Taste, Pause—What Just Happened in My Mouth?

Cacio e pepe is basically pasta, cheese, and black pepper—sounds simple, right? But the way the cheese melts into the hot pasta and that pepper just hits different. It’s creamy, salty, and has this peppery kick that sneaks up on you. Had it at this tiny spot while wandering around, and honestly, I didn’t expect much. But wow, every bite made me stop and think about how something so basic could feel so new. It’s just pasta, but it’s not. That’s all I’m saying. #cacioepepe #italiancuisine #pastalover #Food
