  • Lower the heat to medium. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until it melts and creates a creamy sauce.

  • If the sauce becomes too thick, add a bit of the reserved pasta water, one tablespoon at a time, to thin it out. Taste and season with additional salt and black pepper as needed.
