Part 5/9:
While the pasta rests, prepare a simple yet flavorful topping called 'pan cortado'—crispy breadcrumbs infused with olive oil and pecorino cheese. Heat olive oil in a pan over low heat, add breadcrumbs, and stir continuously until they turn golden brown and crispy. Mix in grated pecorino for a rich, sharp flavor that complements the dish. Once done, drain on paper towels. This crunchy addition adds a delightful textural contrast and elevates the dish with minimal effort.
