1
Cook the Pasta
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the tagliolini pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve about 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta.
2
Prepare the Cheese and Pepper
While the pasta is cooking, finely grate the Pecorino Romano cheese. In a large skillet, toast the black pepper in olive oil over medium heat for about 1 minute until fragrant.
3
Combine Ingredients
Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the toasted pepper and olive oil. Toss to combine, then add the grated cheese. Stir quickly, adding reserved pasta water a little at a time until you achieve a creamy consistency.
4
Serve
Season with additional salt and black pepper to taste. Serve immediately, garnished with more grated cheese if desired.
