Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain, saving about 1 cup of cooking water.
- Meanwhile, place guanciale in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crisp, about 3 minutes. Add pasta water, cooked spaghetti, and grated Pecorino Romano cheese. Mix well.
- Distribute pasta amongst 4 bowls and serve with freshly ground black pepper and extra Pecorino Romano cheese.

[email protected]I'm allergic to pepper, so I had to omit it from the recipe. The dish was still good, but I missed the spicy kick that the pepper would have added.

[email protected]This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think next time I'll use less salt in the pasta water and sauce.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of pasta alla gricia. I found it to be a bit bland and one-dimensional. Maybe I just need to experiment with different ingredients.

[email protected]The key to a great pasta alla gricia is using high-quality ingredients. Don't skimp on the cheese or the pepper. And make sure to use a good pasta that will hold up to the sauce.

[email protected]This is my go-to pasta dish when I'm short on time but still want something tasty and impressive. My family loves it, and it's always a hit when I bring it to potlucks.

[email protected]I couldn't find guanciale, so I used pancetta instead. It was still delicious, but I'm sure it would have been even better with the real deal. Next time I'll order some online.
