Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add pasta; cook according to package directions, until al dente. Reserve 3/8 (less if adjusted) cup cooking water. Drain the pasta; rinse under cold water. Transfer to a large bowl.

Add 1/2 cup Parmesan and 1 teaspoon lemon zest to a small bowl. With clean hands, rub the Parmesan and zest together until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
