When I was little, my dad and I spent Sunday mornings on the Santa Monica beach. Before heading home we’d sometime hike up to the pier and buy a newspaper cone of freshly made potato chips from a little stand there and share them on the ride home. They were warm, and slightly soft in the middle, just out of the fryer.

This Easy Cacio e Pepe Dip Is Everything

The beauty of cacio e pepe lies in its simplicity: the combination of sharp, salty Pecorino Romano cheese and spicy black pepper is what makes that Italian pasta such a classic. It’s a crave-worthy harmony of flavors that can work with almost anything — including a cameo in the snack category. Blending the same flavors with California walnuts turns it into a sophisticated-yet-easy dip that you can scoop up with anything from fresh veggies to crisp crackers.
