Roman restaurant association ‘astonished’ to see four ingredients, not three, listed on Good Food website

One of the UK’s most popular food websites has cooked up a storm in Italy after allegedly botching a recipe for the traditional Roman pasta dish, cacio e pepe, drawing diplomatic representations from the main trade association for Italian restaurateur.

A recipe on Good Food, formerly owned by the BBC, which continues to licence the web address bbcgoodfood.com - described cacio e pepe, a culinary institution in the Italian capital, as a “store cupboard favourite” that could easily be whipped up for “a speedy lunch” using “four simple ingredients - spaghetti, pepper, parmesan and butter”.
