Instructions

Boil the Pasta

Fill a large pot with plenty of water, add salt, and bring to a boil.

Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente.

Prepare the Sauce

While the pasta is cooking, pour extra virgin olive oil into a large pan and gently heat it.

Add a ladle of the pasta cooking water and mix to create a light emulsion.

Combine

Drain the pasta and transfer it directly into the pan.

Toss well to coat, adding more cooking water if needed to achieve a silky texture.

Finish and Serve

Adjust seasoning with salt if necessary.

Finish with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired, and serve immediately.
