Tips

  • Remove the germ from the garlic cloves to make them much easier to digest.
  • Do not overcook your pasta.
  • Mascarpone is better than cream for this recipe.
  • Don't throw away the parsley stems as they add flavour to the sauce while cooking.
  • Don't forget to salt your water when boiling pasta.
  • We don't measure the Parmigiano, we follow our heart!
