While stirring constantly, add half the pasta cooking water in a steady stream and stir until smooth. Add remaining pasta cooking water, 1/4 cup at a time, until completely smooth. Bring to a simmer.Once simmering, cook until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 8-10 minutes.Remove from burner. Stir in 1/2 tsp. salt, a pinch of pepper, and half the Parmesan (reserve remaining for garnish) until incorporated and smooth. -
