In all previous attempts the sauce separated. Finally got the cheese to melt into the sauce. Mixed cheese with pasta water until it held shape. Added pasta to oil in pan from guanciale. Mixed around adding a little pasta water. Held pan over hot pasta water, added cheese, melted it down with more hot pasta water, while mixing. Added guanciale, mixed. Added more guanciale and cheese on top. Peppercorn, of course. Delish!
