Notes
- *You can also use milk or omit this all together. I find the cream cheese melts easier with it.
- **Pasta water helps to thin the sauce and coat the pasta evenly. Pasta water is a little starchy, so it works best to not thin too much and also have a tiny bit of flavor. It is also, presumably hot. if you forget to ladle this out, use the hottest water from that tap with 1 teaspoon of flour whisked in.
