It’s a situation, matter, or person that is hard to deal with or understand.

Yeah, more before the cheese. That might be the problem.

It’s the starch in the water, blended thoroughly with the liquid fat, that creates the emulsion. Once the fat/water emulsion exists, the cheese can melt into it. (it’s also how ayonnaise is made - except, obviously, egg instead of cheese.)

If the cheese has already begun to clump, it’s too late. At that point, if you add heat or starch, the cheese can’t slowly melt into the emulsion - chemical reactions in the cheese have already begun to take place.

(Science!)

If you struggle to get it right with pasta water, you could also try mixing in powdered starch before you add the cheese. That will let you experiment with more predictable quantities of starch. It’s less traditional, but it’s easier to control.

How much pasta water did you add before you started putting the cheese in?

Still looks delicious. You could make a great mufuletta with bread like that.

Well I’d give it a 9 on color and an 8 on style, but it loses points because it didn’t rise up enough.

Americans had a habit of patenting things that were already common in other countries.

So that was probably the first Ferris wheel. But I guarantee it was not the first wheel-shaped ride.

Hey, if you like it, drink it!

It’s not what I like. But who am I to tell you what to drink?

Might I suggest Hesperium (earlier alternate name recommended by Fermi) or Plutium (a name Seaborg considered before deciding plutonium sounded better)?
