Classic Spaghetti Carbonara

Spaghetti Carbonara is the epitome of simple Italian cooking, where a few high-quality ingredients create something truly magical. This classic Roman dish is a testament to the fact that you don't need a long list of ingredients to create a deeply flavorful meal. The creamy sauce is made not with cream, but with the magic of emulsified egg yolks, Pecorino Romano cheese, and the rendered fat from cured pork. Finished with a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper, it's a dish that is both comforting and elegant. This recipe sticks to the traditional method, creating a silky, rich sauce that clings to every strand of spaghetti. It’s a perfect weeknight dinner that comes together in the time it takes to boil pasta.
