Remember: even if you have Guanciale, if your Italian hand gesture drops for even a second, it stops being carbonara. Due to this and several other factors, some Italianologists believe that carbonara is a myth and has never actually been made

Yeah, i agree we can be annoying, but the main problem isn't really home cooks making pseudo italian recipes and modifying them a bit to suit either their tastes or the local ingredients. The problem is restauraunts doing that and then claiming it's authentic. I'd much rather go eat italian food in japan than in america because in japan at least they're honest about it not being authentic italian food but rather italian-japanese fusion food so i can appreciate the food itself, while in america it's usually just italian food but worse.
Leave out us Asians, we can't stand foreigners butchering our dishes and pretending that it was authentic. That's why I can understand the agony of Italians when they have to witness their traditions being sold off in other countries as a counterfeit of the actual dish.
I'm from italy and I can teel you this is very close to how I make it as a broke uni student...just whatever gets you close be it bacon, guanciale or pancetta, parmesan or pecorino. i like to add 1 egg white and for each serving 1 yolk and also a very light grate of nutmeg. Keep it up you're great!
Looks like you were having some slippage there with the cheese. I suggest upgrading to pecorino romano with an SDS shaft, but you'll need a rotary hammer drill.

You can enjoy this video and still think that people who put random shit in a dish and call it carbonara are morons. The two things are not correlated.

The best not Carbonara I've seen in a while. I use a while egg, it's usually just yolk since it's harder to mess up that way and thicker, but really it never caused me any issues, just be very careful with the heat
If you properly temper your eggs (add some more pasta water to not only give the cheese a head-start) getting a whole-egg mixture to creamy perfection is actually not that unachievable.
@@notAshildr Yeah, it's just harder to do than using pure yolk. At this point I'm convinced all of those yolk only recipes are made just to make it easier for people, since I tried both and didn't notice much of a difference when both methods are done right

At first I didn't realize how clever that thumbnail is, with the "This is not" being much less visible because of the white background, while "Spaghetti Carbonara" is still clearly visible. I love that kind of attention to detail!
I made this and for a second I seriously considered counting out 156 noodles. 🤦♀️ That’s why I like baking I can indulge my ocd tendencies. I settled on 8oz.
The funny part of the whole situation with the particular dish (not) referenced here is that there is no real canon. No one knows for sure who invented it and when, it sort of just popped out of nowhere after WW2. The most credited theory is that it was first done with American military rations, which included bacon and powdered eggs. In all cases, there have been so many "canon" variation throughout its short history that you can't call for any purity. Very well done, and funny as always :)
It's a recipe that's older than most people who cook it. When you talk about carbonara my mind goes back to the afternoons when I was coming back from school and both my teenager self and my mother are tired and hungry and she's got this guilty smile as she says "carbonara?" and I'm like "fuck yeah" and then ten minutes later we're clogging our arteries with delicious comfort food So when you promise carbonara, I go on this nostalgia trip in which I get ready to relive those memories, and as you grab the garlic, the spell is broken and I come crashing down to earth faster than a meteor and my taxes are due and I have a meeting in 20 minutes actually and the sweet release of death comes that much closer for us all
@@badp BUT that is just your version of it. In the '80s many people in Italy (even in Rome) probably cooked it with cream and pancetta rather than guanciale. The first documented recipe (1940's, in the USA!) used ham. The first Roman cookbook mentioning it uses parsley and garlic. The fact that you had an experience you called "carbonara", which doesn't coincide with someone else's experience with the same name, doesn't make you or them wrong. Because there is no right. There are several common points (cured pork, eggs, grated cheese, pepper), but apart from this, you have no right to call someone else wrong. Even if that conflicts with your vision
Story time: despite all the legends about ancient traditions, carbonara is a modern dish with no clear origin. It's not in any cookbook before the '50s and most early mentions of this pasta (described as "with eggs, cheese, bacon or prosciutto") are in english language touring guides. The oldest menu to include carbonara is from 1952 and it comes from a restaurant in Chicago. The origin of this recipe is probably connected to US soldiers stationed in Italy after WWII. One of the few reliable food sources during that time of extreme poverty were military rations containing, among other stuff, the ingredients for a classic american breakfast: powdered eggs and bacon strips, that someone might have mixed into a pasta sauce. Early recipes sometimes include chili, one mentions squid ink, one butter but it's unclear whether to fry the bacon or melted on the pasta. Still NO CREAM ;)

Oh thank god, I’ve been DYING to find out how to not make carbonara!
Really missed your outro's, this was great, thank you !
Vincenzo's plate should review this! He will have a blast with this! Great video!
I love how he pokes at all the AUTHENTIC carbonara videos
Oh my God I am DYING from that hand gesture joke IT'S SO TRUE IT EXPLAINS LITERALLY EVERYTHING
This is the most significant and educational video I have ever seen!
And here I've been referring to angry water as "boiling" my whole life like an idiot, thanks for teaching me a valuable lesson.
This is a perfect episode
I tried the recipe but used 155 Spagetti instead of 156. Needless to say the meal was ruined. But the noodle water was tasty.
I made this and for a second I seriously considered counting out 156 noodles. 🤦♀️ That’s why I like baking I can indulge my ocd tendencies. I settled on 8oz.
The script and song are top notch 👌 love you dude
The funny part of the whole situation with the particular dish (not) referenced here is that there is no real canon.
No one knows for sure who invented it and when, it sort of just popped out of nowhere after WW2.
The most credited theory is that it was first done with American military rations, which included bacon and powdered eggs.
In all cases, there have been so many "canon" variation throughout its short history that you can't call for any purity.
Very well done, and funny as always :)
It's a recipe that's older than most people who cook it. When you talk about carbonara my mind goes back to the afternoons when I was coming back from school and both my teenager self and my mother are tired and hungry and she's got this guilty smile as she says "carbonara?" and I'm like "fuck yeah" and then ten minutes later we're clogging our arteries with delicious comfort food
So when you promise carbonara, I go on this nostalgia trip in which I get ready to relive those memories, and as you grab the garlic, the spell is broken and I come crashing down to earth faster than a meteor and my taxes are due and I have a meeting in 20 minutes actually and the sweet release of death comes that much closer for us all
@@badp BUT that is just your version of it.
In the '80s many people in Italy (even in Rome) probably cooked it with cream and pancetta rather than guanciale.
The first documented recipe (1940's, in the USA!) used ham. The first Roman cookbook mentioning it uses parsley and garlic.
The fact that you had an experience you called "carbonara", which doesn't coincide with someone else's experience with the same name, doesn't make you or them wrong.
Because there is no right.
There are several common points (cured pork, eggs, grated cheese, pepper), but apart from this, you have no right to call someone else wrong. Even if that conflicts with your vision
I LOVE that the songs are back!
Thank dog. I'd been searching for a Not Carbonara recipe so I could use angel hair instead of spaghetti. Brilliant.
I can feel the sheer aura of sarcasm just from the first few lines of this video. Absolutely brilliant
Story time: despite all the legends about ancient traditions, carbonara is a modern dish with no clear origin. It's not in any cookbook before the '50s and most early mentions of this pasta (described as "with eggs, cheese, bacon or prosciutto") are in english language touring guides. The oldest menu to include carbonara is from 1952 and it comes from a restaurant in Chicago.
The origin of this recipe is probably connected to US soldiers stationed in Italy after WWII. One of the few reliable food sources during that time of extreme poverty were military rations containing, among other stuff, the ingredients for a classic american breakfast: powdered eggs and bacon strips, that someone might have mixed into a pasta sauce.
Early recipes sometimes include chili, one mentions squid ink, one butter but it's unclear whether to fry the bacon or melted on the pasta. Still NO CREAM ;)
I just found a copy of your cookbook today and I couldn’t be happier
This was great. Can’t wait for the “Not Paella” episode next!
Oh...God...The Sorted Food guys caused an international incident when they made it. I think there were death threats.😂
I just made this. It’s absolutely delicious. Thanks for the recipe!
4:40 Pasta is made from flour - flour is made from wheat - wheat is a plant ----> spaghetti are vegetable.
my favorite line
"now we just need to salt the angry water"

I feel like this video was directed at Vincenzo's Plate, it's perfect!
Yeah, and many others like him who have a stroke when someone doesn't 100% adhere to their perceived tradition.
Please come to Spotify so that I can listen your songs all day long. They are the vibe ✨🤌
