So, when you're itching for something wicked simple and filling, peppery pasta is where it's at. Butter, romano cheese, just a bit of spice and you're good to go.

1. Boil pasta in salted water, following instructions on the box, until at desired texture (preferably, al dente).

2. Reserve about 1/4 cup of pasta water then drain pasta.

3. Place pasta pot back on burner on low heat, add cracked pepper for a few moments until toasted (WARNING: pepper burns easily so make sure this maneuver is quick!)

4. Add butter and oil until melted. Add pasta back in with saved water. Add romano cheese and serve hot.
