- In a big pot, bring 5 quarts water to a boil with the salt.
- Cook pasta until al dente, 4-6 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the cheese and fresh cracked pepper in a bowl.
- Two minutes before you drain the pasta, combine the oil and 2/3 cup pasta water in a large skillet; heat to a simmer over low flame.
- Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet; add 1/3 of the cheese/pepper mixture; toss to combine.
- Repeat with the remaining cheese mixture in two additions.
