For an even richer flavor, consider using a combination of Romano and Parmesan cheese. Freshly grated nutmeg is crucial for the best aroma and taste. Avoid using pre-ground nutmeg if possible. Serve immediately to prevent the sauce from becoming too thick. A sprinkle of extra Romano cheese and a crack of black pepper make for a beautiful presentation.
