'But there are ways around this if you know how: choose the right ingredients, marry them with the right combination of spices and sauces, use the right cooking method, and you can produce incredibly tasty meals that tick all the boxes.'"
"Ramsay recommends boiling water in a kettle and then half-filling your saucepan, allowing it to return to a boil. This trick - which Ramsay frequently uses in his quick pasta recipes - allows you to save time instead of waiting for the saucepan to come to a boil with water straight from the tap. For this step, Ramsay says it's important to 'add just enough water to cover the pasta so that the water will become as starchy as possible.'"

Toasted peppercorns should be coarsely ground; a rolling pin can substitute for a mortar and pestle. Boil water in a kettle and half-fill the saucepan to save time, adding just enough water to cover the pasta so the water becomes starchy. These steps yield a creamy, flavorful pasta rapidly by concentrating cheese and pepper aromas while maximizing starch for sauce emulsification.
