Spaghetti with Béchamel White Sauce

Ingredients

How to Prepare

  1. Make Joe’s recipe for Béchamel White Sauce.

  2. While making your béchamel or after, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add spaghetti and cook according to the instructions, until al dente.

  3. Add 2 tbsp. of Vito & Joe’s Olive Oil to the bottom of a serving dish. Using tongs, transfer the cooked spaghetti to the dish. Reserve the pasta water. (Don’t worry about a little water getting in; it’ll help to thin the béchamel sauce a bit.)

  4. Toss the pasta and oil together using the tongs. Add 1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano and toss to combine. Add a about 1/2 cup of pasta water and about 1/2 cup of béchamel sauce to the spaghetti, and toss well to fully combine.

  5. Top with remained Parmigiano-Reggiano and a few grates of freshly grated nutmeg.

  6. Serve and enjoy!
