Cacio e pepe has taken over food trends in 2025 with its simplicity and rich flavor. This Roman classic uses just pasta, Pecorino Romano cheese, and black pepper to create a creamy, indulgent dish without the need for cream or butter. Loved for its minimalism and bold taste, it’s become a go-to for home cooks and foodies alike. The perfectly emulsified sauce clings to spaghetti, making every bite comforting yet gourmet. Great for weeknight dinners or impressing guests with little effort.
