For an even richer flavor, consider using a combination of Parmesan and Romano cheese. Freshly grated nutmeg adds a warm, aromatic note to the sauce. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to control the level of spiciness. Serve immediately with a side of crusty garlic bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
