Want to feel like you're eating at a Roman trattoria? Then this dish from Chef John Delucie's Ambra is for you. It's Italian simplicity at its best: al dente rigatoni, Parmesan cheese, and freshly ground black peppercorns. That's all that goes in, and what comes out is creamy, cheesy pasta perfection.

Simple and great. Even freezes and reheats really well. You really couldn't as for anything more when it comes to a cacio e pepe pasta, unless it's being made fresh! Perfect for a tired comfort meal.

A lovely pasta dish with a sauce that was cheesy and creamy and pasta that had a nice al dente texture. However, it's a little too salty for my taste; I personally think the salt could be halved.
For much of the past two decades, Chef John DeLucie has been one of New York City's most popular chefs leading a number of restaurants like Bedford & Co, Ainslie, Empire Diner, The Lion, and The Waverly Inn. Upon graduating from NYU, he eventually gave in to his natural culinary curiosity and began a tour of Europe's great cuisine centers (France and Italy) where he sculpted his own cooking style, fusing modern cooking techniques with European craft. Upon returning to the States, DeLucie landed several jobs including Chef de Cuisine at the venerable seafood restaurant Oceana. Today, DeLucie's style remains as distinctively simple as it is universally praised. His newest restaurant, Merchants Social, opened in Hudson, New York, in 2022.
