Preparación

1. 1

   In a medium bowl, make the sauce by whisking together all the sauce ingredients. Set aside. (Best if made ahead a couple of hours ahead of serving but it's not necessary. Refrigerate if making ahead, and bring to room temp before tossing with pasta.)

2. 2

   Cook pasta (16 ounces), in well-salted water, until al dente. Drain and reserve 1 cup of pasta water.

3. 3

   Add the sauce to the cooked warm pasta. Toss well then add the reserved pasta water. Check the seasoning and adjust as needed. Serve immediately. Top with extra parmesan and chopped basil.
