  • 2 tbsp Fresh chives, chopped(optional)
  • to taste Black pepper
  • to taste Salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the tagliatelle according to package directions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water before draining.

    Add the white wine (if using) and simmer for 1-2 minutes to reduce slightly, then lower the heat and pour in the cream.

    Add the chopped Camembert and whisk gently over low heat until fully melted and the sauce is smooth, about 3-4 minutes.

  5. 5

    Toss the drained pasta into the sauce, adding a splash of reserved pasta water as needed to reach a silky consistency. Season with salt and black pepper.

  6. 6

    Divide between two plates, sprinkle with fresh chives, and serve immediately.
