Stir in cheese until starting to soften, then whisk in hot pasta water, a few spoonfuls at a time, until sauce is desired consistency. Stir in pasta and adjust consistency and seasonings.
  4. Stir in reserved cooking water, a few spoonfuls at a time, until sauce is desired consistency. Portion onto serving plate and keep warm.
