1 In a skillet large enough to hold all of the pasta, melt the butter over medium heat. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon zest and juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper to taste.
2 Bring at least 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot. Add 2 tablespoons of salt, then the pasta, gently pushing it down until the pasta is completely covered with water. Stir well. Cook over high heat, stirring frequently, until the pasta is al dente, tender but still firm to the bite. Drain the pasta, reserving some of the cooking water.
3 Add the pasta to the sauce and toss well. Add the cheese and toss again. Stir in a tablespoon or two of the cooking water if the pasta seems dry. Serve immediately.
