What is cacio e pepe?

Oh, we don’t usually order that here! It’s basically pasta that’s been tossed with fresh grated Parmesan cheese, and then we make sure it’s not too salty by adding some fresh pepper flakes.

It's an Italian dish, but what does the name mean in English?

It’s basically a play on words, with the two things cacio means in Italian, which is cheese, and the word pepe which means pepper.
