Forget everything you thought you knew about carbonara. The authentic Italian way uses just four main ingredients. First, fry cubes of guanchal until crisp. While that’s going, whisk together egg yolks, a generous amount of pecorino ramano cheese, and freshly ground black pepper. Cook your spaghetti until all dent, then drain, saving some pasta water. Here’s the secret. Work quickly off the heat. Combine the hot pasta with the crispy guancho. Then pour in the egg and cheese mixture, adding a splash of pasta water to create a silky creamy sauce. No cream, just pure Italian magic. Serve immediately with another sprinkle of cheese and pepper. Bonafetito.
