Ingredients
- 16 oz. dry spaghetti
- 1-1/4 C. half and half
- 1 C. freshly grated parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley
Directions
-
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until just short of al dente. Reserve a cup of the pasta water, and drain.
-
Return the pasta to the pot. Add the half and half and the cheese. Toss with a pair of tongs for several minutes, until the liquid is absorbed and a silky sauce has formed. If it seems too dry, add some of the reserved pasta water. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
-
Serve topped with chopped fresh parsley and additional parmesan, if desired
