Step 01
Step 02
Cube the butter into 16 equal pieces.
Step 03
Once the water is boiling, add the pasta. Turn the heat down to a low boil and cook for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally so the pasta doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pot.
Step 04
Once cooked, use a ladle to reserve 1 cup/250 ml of pasta water.
Step 05
Add the cubed butter, tossing to coat.
Step 06
Add half of the Parmigiano Reggiano and toss to coat. Then, add half of the reserved pasta water and stir. Add the remainder of the cheese and reserved pasta water and stir to form a creamy sauce.
Step 07
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Step 08
Divide the S.Pellegrino Stelline pasta among six to eight bowls.
Step 09
Garnish with additional grated Parmigiano Reggiano.
Step 10
Serve alongside a chilled bottle of S.Pellegrino. Buon appetito!
