One of the simplest and at the same time one of the most
delicious macaroni dishes this, and one for which any of the various forms of pasta may be employed.

For each person allow:
3 to 4 ozs. pasta
1 tablespoon or more of grated Parmesan cheese
1 really generous lump of good butter

"The method of cooking pasta has already been described in

detail [See entry in Italian Cookbook by Dorothy Daly, entitled "Cooking Instructions"]. When cooked, blanched and drained, stir the butter and cheese into the dish of pasta, allow to melt and serve immediately, handing at the same time a dish of the grated cheese so that more may be added at will."

This recipe was taken from "Italian Cooking" by Dorothy Daly. It was published by Spring Books in Great Britain. For the complete copyright-free cookbook see www.archive.org. A variety of recipes can also be found on this website.... Photo: Mary Melfi.
