Stop Overthinking CACIO E PEPE

How to Make Fried Pasta
Homemade Italian fried pasta chips – a crunchy snack that comes in both a savory version flavored with tomato, Parmesan and oregano, and a sweet version with sugar and lemon zest. Made from fresh egg pasta, fried until golden and finished with salt or powdered sugar.

Both are perfect for spaghetti, risotto pomodoro, or the traditional Tuscan papal pomodoro (bread dipped in cold tomato sauce).
