Carbonara Tonight!

[indaswamp]

....and NO CREAM! LOL!

Pulled out some guanciale to make Carbonara tonight. Only thing I needed from the grocer was the Pecorino Romano cheese. This Guanciale was placed in the chamber 10/2022...deep umaimi, funky notes...all I can say is Wow!

Nice . That's a favorite here . My Son has the sauce down .
I bet the guanciale really added to it .

Looks like stellar chow! That and cacio e pepe are on my short list of things to recreate at home.

Thanks chop. It's fairly straight forward...as long as you don't scramble the eggs! The guanciale was outstanding...didn't drain ANY of the fat; left it all in there for the sauce. So rich!

Thanks mr_whipple! IF you have a butcher that breaks down sides of pork on site, you can probably get pig heads to make guanciale.

Thanks TKO! 5 ingredients, yet oh so good!

Thanks guys! Playing catch-up on thanking people....I've been out of town the last 5 days entertaining my buddies from Kansas at the 10th annual Cajun/Kansas fishing trip.

Very, very nice Keith. Give me a couple slices of cheesy garlic bread and I'm in Heaven. Heck, keep the bread and just hand me a massive plate of the Carbonara and i'll be one happy camper. Very nice my friend.

Thank you Robert! I did enjoy it, even the leftovers! Had to rewarm gently though so as not to over cook the egg.
