We would like a little bit more cheese flavor and sprinkled some shredded cheddar on top of our servings. I am wondering how to add more cheese to the sauce without changing the texture and consistency too much. Should I also add more cream, egg or pasta water or a combination of the three?

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2 to 3 slices rustic bread, such as ciabatta, trimmed of crusts and cut into 1-inch pieces 1 tablespoon unsalted butter Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper 1 pound spaghetti 3 large eggs, room temperature 1 ounce Parmesan, finely grated (about 1/2 cup) 1 ounce sharp cheddar, finely grated (about 1/2 cup) 1/2 cup heavy cream 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Directions

Pulse bread in a food processor until coarsely ground (you should have 1 cup). Toast breadcrumbs in a large skillet over medium heat, tossing, until golden and crisp, about 7 minutes. Remove from heat and add butter, tossing to coat. Season with salt and pepper.

Cook pasta in a large pot of generously salted water until al dente, according to package directions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain.

Meanwhile, whisk together eggs, both cheeses, cream, and mustard in a bowl.

Return pasta to pot and add egg mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring, until sauce has thickened, about 2 minutes. Add reserved pasta water, 1/4 cup at a time, until pasta is evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately, topped with breadcrumbs.
