Cook, breaking up the sausage, until brown, about 5 minutes, then season with salt and a few hefty grinds of coarse black pepper -- it's all about the pepper! In a small bowl, whisk together the Parmesan cheese and eggs

Add the drained pasta to the pan and swirl until it's mostly coated with the fat of the sausage

Remove the pan from the heat and add a spoonful or so of the pasta water along with the egg and cheese mixture
7
Toss rapidly to coat the pasta with the eggs and cheese
