@forkthepeople: Recreating the World’s Best Carbonara #cooking #foodtiktok #food #Recipe #pasta #carbonara Ingredients - 4 egg yolks - 200g guanciale (cut into cubes or strips) - 20g pecorino romano - 30g grana padano - 6g whole Sarawak black peppercorns - 280g dried spaghettoni Instructions - Toast peppercorns until fragrant (don’t let them burn!) then coarsely grind and save 2g for later - Heat a pot of water for the pasta, try to use just enough water to cover the pasta (to concentrate the starch, which will help in emulsification) - Add 4 egg yolks, the grated cheeses, and the saved 2g of black pepper to a metal bowl and whisk (it’ll be clumpy) - Place the meal bowl on top of the heated pot of water and whisk until the color and density changes (should become smooth) - Add the guanciale to a cold pan (without oil) and cook over low-medium heat until the fat renders. Remove the guanciale and save the fat. - Start cooking the spaghettoni until very al dente - Add the cooked pasta to the metal bowl with the egg/cheese mix and add 2-4 spoonfuls of the guanciale fat, along with enough pasta water to emulsify and achieve the desired consistency (start with half a cup and add more as needed) - Mix vigorously to emulsify then add in the guanciale (if the sauce is too loose, just place it back on top of the heated pot of water to thicken) - Serve with grated pecorino romano and a few pinches of the freshly ground black pepper
You know.. If you add ham to it.. It's more like a British Carbonara 🤌🤌

This was the first restaurant I went when I traveled to Rome. I had the carbonara and it was ok. Good, but not that different from others I had at Italy.

The proper term for a ‘double heater’ is a bain-marie (pronounced ban-ma-ree)

I learned the double boiler method a few years ago and it changed everything! Also, get GOOD eggs. It’s worth paying farmers market prices in this. You want the rich orange yolks

user5194369007681 :
I'm not sure what's the difference this recipe has over the "regular" one. Is it just that it uses grana padano instead of parmigiano reggiano?

It needs more work, you did most of the steps right, you need to slightly let your pasta cool down after draining then straight to the pan with the pasta water and the sauce, raise the heat slowly while stirring it the sauce should become thicker and envelops the pasta completely at that point it is ready to be plated. I do this every day in my work as a cook

you also need to cut off the bottom part of the guanciale, the sauce will become bitter

Sarawak pepper corns are superior! Glad that it gets the recognition it deserves. Tastes so much better for dishes

I don't follow why he needs a bain-marie to emulsify molten fat with 4 tons of yolk.

So if you wanted to you could temper your egg mix over the water cooling your spaghetti

I had the privilege to have the carbonara at Luciano’s restaurant in Rome. It was amazing! Yours did not turn out so well, but congrats for trying!

The best carbonara I’ve ever had is in this restaurant called Girarrosto Fiorentino in Rome. It was absolutely mind blowing.
