For an even richer flavor, consider using freshly made pasta. Freshly ground black pepper is crucial for the characteristic Cacio e Pepe flavor; avoid using pre-ground pepper. To prevent the lasagna from drying out, you can cover the ramekins with foil during the first half of baking. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
