Cook pasta
To cook pasta, you need to boil 3 liters of water in a large pot and season with kosher salt. Then, start cooking the pasta for 6-7 minutes, or about a minute before cooking. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water and drain the rest and set the distillation tube aside.

Spices: Add more black pepper or crushed chili while cooking to absorb heat, creating a spicy taste when eaten.
Extra Cream: Add more Parmigiano-Reggiano and Pecorino cheese to make the dish more creamy.
Garlic: If you want more garlic, cut a clove of garlic in half and put it in the pan as you add the pasta water. When the water boils, remove the garlic from the pan and do the rest of the steps. This will add a bit of garlic flavor to the pasta water.
