2. Cacio e Pepe
Although Cacio e Pepe calls for very few ingredients, the process of combining the ingredients makes this Roman staple somewhat of a challenge. Have no fear. With our fool-proof method, you’ll be mastering Cacio e pepe in no time.
3. Ramp Pesto
With the resemblance of a scallion and the bite of garlic, ramps are the more adventurous older brother of the spring onion. They’re only in season for a couple months, so when you see them, be sure to grab them because these guys make THE BEST PESTO EVER.
