  • *I don’t plan on offering this disclaimer every time I write a recipe (although sometimes I think I should), but I am in no way saying this is the definitive way to make Spaghetti Carbonara. It might not even be “the right way?” But, this is the way I make it, the way it makes sense to me, the way it tastes best, and honestly, I think it’s great. *
    Spaghetti carbonara is not my favorite of the Roman pastas to eat (I’ll take Amatriciana), but it is my favorite to make. An undeniable feat of alchemy, the ingredients for spaghetti carbonara go from watery, weird, soupy raw egg mess to a luscious, creamy, silky sauce in minutes (and then, seconds).
    I have learned that many are afraid of carbonara- the scrambled egg of it all- but this recipe has enough pasta water to alleviate your concerns, and, if you’re patient enough to do things lower and slower than usual (me, talking to me), you’ll have something shockingly perfect, not one scrambled egg in sight.
    What I’m saying is: Trust in the process because cooking is MAGIC. Never forget that.
    FYI: The amount of sauce produced here could absolutely go the distance for double the amount of pasta, useful to know if you find yourself in bed with someone also needing some LNP (late night pasta).

    I just made this (for one) and I'm watching this video again while I eat it and it's the ultimate carbonara experience. I used pancetta as that's what my supermarket had, and pecorino romano. It's transcendently good. I included the garlic, and so much black pepper I had to refill my pepper mill. Seeing the sauce come together was delightful. I don't think I'll manage to finish it lol but it is so delicious. Thank you! Good to have this in my repertoire for the next time I need to impress someone with actually not much effort.

    Yum! This is basically how I do my carbonara too! :-))) Your videos always cheer me up! I love your mention of ''Heartburn'' and your top with the oranges and the gingham pattern, it's so pretty! :-))) I can't wait to go back to Rome, ah!! Take care :) Love from Canada!
