No Yolks® No-Fail One-Pan Cacio e Pepe Noodles

This recipe is an easy, no-fail take on a classic Roman dish, Cacio e Pepe, which simply means “Cheese and Pepper”. The starchy pasta water becomes the base of the rich creamy sauce, and creating a cheese paste allows it to melt evenly on the noodles without sticking to the bottom of the pot.
