This Italian Rome, Italy style Spaghetti Alla Carbonara is one many shy away from because it can be a bit tricky getting the creamy egg yolks to coat the pasta perfectly but we have easy steps to make it perfectly here.
Stirring the egg mixture quickly into the pasta which should be warm enough to cook the yolks perfectly makes this special sauce stick to the pasta and not make it a scrambled mess.
Getting carbonara just right can take a little practice but it's very easy once you read the tips and easy steps we have provided.
Grandma made this simple dish with ease and it was always perfect, she always said it originated in her Region of Rome, Italy although to date there is no proof of that.
This very vintage recipe was documented as long ago as 1839 on the net, the dish was even written down by coal workers that sat watching burning coals all day and cooked this for their lunch.
They would make this peasant dish directly over the coal fire (they carried in their ingredients of eggs, guanciale, sheep's milk cheese, and pasta) since this was the only meal they had all day while working very long hours.
