Mix well and add a ladleful of reserved pasta water, if needed, to loosen the sauce. Once the pasta is well coated and glossy, serve straightaway with a little more cheese scattered over.

Turn off the heat completely, making sure there is at least one ladleful of cooking water left in the pan you cooked the pasta in. Gradually add the cheese paste to the pasta, stirring. If the spaghetti becomes too sticky, add a ladle of the reserved pasta water (it should be hot but no longer boiling, as high heat can cause the cheese to split and create lumps) and keep mixing. The cheese, cooking water and the starch will all bind together to make a creamy, emulsified sauce.

Vitamin B12 is a nutrient that is important for your blood cells, nervous system, and DNA synthesis. It is naturally found primarily in animal foods such as fish, meat, eggs, poultry, and dairy. Therefore, if you follow a vegan or vegetarian diet, you are at greater risk of deficiency, and we recommend considering a B12 supplement as no vegan foods are naturally a significant source of B12. The upside is that “many vegan foods are fortified with B-12, including nutritional yeast and some plant milks, but supplementation makes it easier,” says Anna Titcomb, MS, RD, CSSD. Some common signs of…
