The melted Parmigiano Reggiano emulsifies with the pasta water to create a moreishly smooth and rich pasta sauce - this is a recipe you need in your life.
Bring a large pot of water to the boil and add salt. We recommend 7 grams of rock salt per 1 litre of water.
COOK THE PASTA
Once the water is boiling, cook the Pappardelle according to the package instructions. Once the pasta is cooked, reserve about 1 cup of cooking water then drain.
PREPARE THE SAUCE
In the meantime, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat and season with salt and pepper.
COMBINE AND SERVE
Toss the drained Pappardelle in the pan together with the butter. Add the reserved cooking water, Parmigiano Reggiano, then toss the pasta until coated in sauce. Serve immediately.
