• Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice; gradually drizzle the extra virgin olive oil into the lemon juice with a slow and steady stream while whisking. Continue to whisk until the the oil and juice have emulsified. Whisk in a pinch of salt and half of the lemon zest.

Carefully but thoroughly toss the pasta around the cheese and sauce with tongs until evenly coated. Add the arugula, and give the pasta one more toss.
