Wellllll, thissss isssss the best, simplest, most perfect recipe for this dish that I have ever seen. I am soooo thankful I accidentally came across it! Awesome!!! Bucatini ? Who knew? Many thanks to Chef DeCampo for thisssss!!! ❤️👍❤️
My God that looks incredible. I will only go by the Italian masters for this dish, Antonio Carluccio, Gennaro Contaldo, Vincenzo's Plate etc, and of course your recipe, it is sacrilege otherwise. I have been lucky enough to have carbonara in the eternal city herself during my travels, I could almost cry and I make it every week now. Buon appetito from Ireland ❤

Yeap! Absolutely beautiful! When it's about making Carbonara, i only learn from Italian chefs. Don't care about what any non Italian chef has to say about it.
if you want it extra creamy try working the eggs and pecorino on a bain marie and whisking them Zabaione style, then putting the pasta in. it's a tad more complicated timing wise but worth it :D
@@elsenordeker Just spent a week in Naples last month... beautiful city... tourist shit hole ...oh so far you have fallen. you dont even know who you are anymore...
When I tried it with Guanciale instead of Pancetta I was amazed how different it tastes. Not that there's anything wrong with using Pancetta (although some may disagree) but Guanciale doesn't have a bacon flavour and it really changes the flavour of the dish as a whole.
Carbonara is from around Roma and pecorino romano is also from Rome, parmigiano reggiano is from emilia romagna... So its like italian fusion if you use parmesan, if you know what i mean.
I've made Carbonara many, many, times. But with pancetta and parmesan. It is simply tasteless. I don't know why, but I think this maybe be the most overrated dish ever. I would love to try it when some chef prepares it, because no matter what I tried it has no taste at all
@Marko GG Do you season the egg / cheese mixture with salt? Because if not that might explain the lack of flavour. You only need a small pinch though because the pancetta is already salty. And make sure you're using smoked pancetta; the non-smoked stuff doesn't have anywhere near the same level of flavour.
@@mez7736 Nope, I never tried putting salt in the mixture because they always say you don't need salt because bacon is salty. But yeah, I could try that, it makes sense, thanks
@@GuINES-mG Well you're using parmesan, so it's already wrong. Pecorino romano is sheep's milk and has a much sharper taste than parmigiano, which is cow's milk. Also if you're using pre-grated stuff, it'll have even less taste.
@@alexandernapper3683 Yeah, I know it is wrong, but they say you can use parmesan if you don't have p. romano. But you are right, I use pre grated cheese, I think it is called Zanetti parmesan. I know it is not correct recipe, but I thought it would taste like something at least, and not be tasteless completely
@@elsenordeker questo tizio non lo conosci per un cazzo, le ricette possono anche essere rivisitate e adattate a proprio gusto..quindi è inutile fare l’italiano medio e difendere la cucina italiana
@@elsenordekerHe’s from Napoli. When chefs go to other countries, they try and cook food they’re not familiar with. So he doesn’t know Roman food or a chef from Paris will try and make cassoulet the wrong way or a chef from Mumbai will make a mess of Punjabi food.
What, where's the cream?? Lol only kidding!!! I love making carbonara and I make it quite close to that recipe minus the guanciale.... I have yet to find it where I live. Someday....
In Italy we say 1½ yolks each 100 grams of pasta but you can do whatever you like. Don't exaggerate tho. Must be pasta with egg. Not egg with pasta. Plus the egg is raw and can be disgusting
Yes, excellent. Except one thing: You shouldn't put hot pasta water in the egg and cheese bowl because it will cook your eggs a bit. The cheese and egg mix must be at room temperature in a thick ball, then you add it to the pan over the pasta and guanciale and mix with pasta water.
That's the point of pouring the pasta water in the egg!! You're pasteurize the eggs and getting rid of the lumps from the cheese. Every italian chef does it.
@@filippo8495 No, that's not true. I have watched countless Italian chefs prepare carbonara both in person and on YT, and I have made it myself many times. Gino is the first I've seen add hot pasta water to the egg and cheese mix, which you don't want, because it slightly cooks the eggs. If you prepare it like Gino does and you like the results, then that's fine, but it's not the classic technique.
@@svetcovladich9996 I've tried both methods. Adding pasta water to the egg/cheese mix gives much more consistent results. Far less chance of lumps in your carbonara!
Is it acceptable to change the pecorino with parmesan cheese? I can't eat goat/sheep cheese because I think it's disgusting.. so sad, because it's a beautiful product and it's the only thing in the world I don't like. Would you recommend any other cheese?
So what would be dishes that are based on this Carbonara? I love the taste, but eating it makes me feel so bad because there is nothing in there that feel healthy. How can you elevate this dish? Fresh greens? Tomatoes?
I thought the whole point of adding the pasta water was to have the starch that the pasta lets out? Add the water once the pasta has cooked for a while?
No the point of the water is just for get the creamy sauce. The pecorino romano/ yolks mix can be a little tricky, is easy to miss the balance and get it either or too much Liquid or too much solid, also because when you mix it with pasta that consistency change and turns to be more Liquid than before... When is too much solid you put water in, if is too much Liquid you just add more pecorino. And be sure that the pen is not too much hot when you gi to mix them, is safer mix them in a bowl, or you Cook the eggs and get a pasta/frittata mix
for non italian :1 don't use bacon...guanciale is the correct ingredient, 2 after cook guanciale half or so of its fat need to be removed. 3 mixing pasta with guanciale and its (half) liquid fat and yolk and pecorino mix need to be done without fire, the rest is correct....enjoy
Pasta goes in the eggs and then you add Guanciale with its oil, otherwise the oil from Guanciale coats the pasta and the eggs slip away without sticking to the pasta
@@Augustus_Imperator You can do it that way if you want and I'm sure it's fine and I'm sure people do do it that way, but the usual way I've seen it done and the way I do it is to place the pasta (undercooked by a minute or 2) in the pan with the Guanciale and fat and then continue cooking the pasta and creating a cream with the fat and pasta water, and quite a bit of it. This way the pasta absorbs all that flavour. I then add the egg and cheese mixture and add more pasta water as needed. I have never had an issue with the eggs splitting so long as the pan is off the heat and you stir vigorously, which is usually easier with something like spaghetti. I really don't get how people scramble the eggs. Something like a caccio e peppe i find to be far more difficult, it always becomes a string mess for me.
@@ssr6036 For cacio e pepe to work you need both the right cheese and a moderate temperature. Many cheeses either get stringy or get grainy because the proteins coagulate with high temperature, it's as delicate as the eggs in carbonara, you really need to do it out of the stove. I grate the cheese in a bowl, put the pepper in, then when the pasta is almost cooked add a couple ladles of starchy pasta water and mix to form a paste, when the pasta is ready drain it, wait 20 seconds to lose some temperature then put it in the bowl with the cheese and mix, if needed add some more pasta water to loosen it and it should be ok.
@@Augustus_Imperator Yes, I do exactly that, except the pepper, I toast that in the pan and then add pasta water to that and cook the pasta a bit in there too. I probably just don't wait long enough for the pasta to cool before adding the cheese. And I use Pecorino Romano, which is the cheese traditionally used.
Well as the original recipe is shrouded in history. It could be as late as the 1940s. From where the liberating American forces bringing bacon etc. And local Italians used local ingredients to make the dish. 👍
capisco che vivere in inghilterra possa far dimenticare i particolari, ma se dici che ogni formato di pasta ha il loro sugo specifico, i bucatini vanno con l'Amatriciana, non la Carbonara.
Anybody ever attempt this via a blender, same way you do hollandaise?? Nah its good best way in my opinion. Its basically a mother suace emultion you take any direction in carbonara. I do mine with crab n smoked salmon n lil pasta...Nah ya can flavor it to taste too, to the guancale fat. Truffle oil!!

Rubbish
Just recently learned how to make this and now I eat breakfast carbonara every weekend. Eggs and bacon is eggs and bacon
Pretty perfect, apart from adding just the salted water to the eggs initially, surely just wait until its cooked the pasta in it, then its perfect
Nothing more important than our Lord.
minimum effort maximum satisfaction
What about parmesan and pecorino together? Do you need salt in the water when the Guanciale is salt enough? Thank you from the Netherlands.
Carbonara is from around Roma and pecorino romano is also from Rome, parmigiano reggiano is from emilia romagna...
So its like italian fusion if you use parmesan, if you know what i mean.

2000 years of tradition. Except carbonara was first made in the 1940s for US troops who wanted pasta with their rations of bacon and eggs.
This is just a myth there is literally 0 proves that that's true beside people saying that it's true
No emphasis on one of the stars of the dish. Pepper.

Guanciale - from the pig cheeks
Guanciale. I've never found it in the UK but in italian delis indeed. Even Tesco extras don't sell it and they literally sell anything
But where's the peas? Gordon would be disappointed.
