    It looks like a molecular gastronomy fail

    Looks like week old fermented mashed potatoes. How tf do you do this badly? lol.

    Way too much pasta water. I also only add pasta water if the consistency is looking incorrect. Carbonara is a very technical dish: few ingredients and all about how you cook them. It takes practice finding the perfect heat to not overcook everything.

  4. This might be harder to replicate than real carbonara.

    If I’m looking at

    Egg yolks

    Parmesan

    Pasta water

    You should’ve kept mixing instead of stopping to take a pic

    Sometimes things look split but they come back together if you just keep mixing

    Otherwise … yum!
    Cheese and egg soup.

    Did you use cauliflower instead of pasta? And where is the meaty part?

    Hi. Yes. Questions. How and what did you use?

  11. I think your mistake was using the carbonated milk, it’s not what carbonara meansĀ

    Idk if you noticed this chef, but your sauce is broken.

    No lie, this looks amazing to me because I have a colonoscopy tomorrow morning and I can’t eat anything until then.

    You know, if it had like, ham in it, it’s closer to a British carbonara

    If my grandmother had wheels she’d be a bicycle.

    Jesus christ. Maybe start with something simpler and work up. Can you make toast?

    Is the carbonara here in the room with us?

  21. I’m impressed,

    I don’t know how you did it, but this may be the worst attempt at carbonara I’ve ever seen
