Kelp Noodle Cacio E Pepe

The first time I had this dish was when Matthew Kenny owned Sacred Space in Miami and I would go there to study their menu, aka, eat everything and try to recreate by flavor the experience at home. After a few years, this exact recipe popped up on my stream so I finally made it just like the restaurant. Thank you Charlotte Mackinnon for creating and sharing one of the most deceivingly decedent meals on the planet. Enjoyed making and sharing this meal with my dearest, Brigitte! We added sautéd exotic mushrooms with garlic, and edamame beans which was a marriage in heaven! I think it would be lovely with asparagus, peas or broccoli too.

Open bag of kelp noodles and drain water it comes in. Place in bowl with baking soda, optional liquid aminos and cover with warm water. Mix with hands or fork and let soak for 15min to soften noodles. Meanwhile, blend green olive puree in food processor or blender, and paint serving bowl with green sauce first. Blend black pepper cream ingredients together to make cream. Drain and rinse kelp noodles, and top with black pepper cream, mix well with fork or hands. Add to top of green olive serving plate, and top with topping of choice. Enjoy right away, and the noodles will continue to soften in refrigerator, good for a couple days after making.
