The quality of your ingredients makes or breaks it. -I recommend using the best ingredients you can source. -Suggestions: bronze extruded pasta, 24 months aged Parmigiano-Reggiano, 12+ months aged Pecorino Romano, guanciale from the butcher, and organic eggs. - -This recipe assumes medium eggs. - -- ⏲️ Prep time: 5 min -- 🍳 Cook time: 25 min -- 🍽️ Servings: 4 - -## Ingredients - -- Spaghetti: 320 g | 11 oz -- Eggs: 5 -- Guanciale or Smoked Pancetta (cleaned and cubed): 150 g | 5 oz -- Pecorino Romano or Parmigiano-Reggiano (grated)(optional) - -## Directions - -1. Crack the eggs in a bowl but only add the yolks. Add a generous amount of your preferred grated cheese (Pecorino or Parmigiano) around 35g (you can optionally add a dash of black pepper). -2. Fill a pot with water and salt it less than typical [pasta](/pasta) water. When it boils, cook the pasta one minute less than advised. -3. Fry the preferred pork (Guanciale or Smoked Pancetta) in an iron or nonstick pan (if using a different kind of pan add a dash of extra virgin olive oil) on low to medium heat until the sides are crisp but the insides are chewy. -4. While everything is being cooked and fried, beat the eggs manually using a fork until everything is entirely liquid. Remember to watch the time. -5. When your pasta is done (-1 minute), drain it and put it in the bowl with eggs. At this step you may consider the timing: if the pasta is too hot you will cook the eggs, and some people don't like it this way, so just wait for a minute. Keep moving and stirring to fully incorporate the eggs. Add guanciale and as many fats remaining in the pan as you want. Keep moving and stirring. -6. Plate and optionally garnish with the preferred grated cheese and black pepper. Voila. |
