  1. Just made this from memory after watching the video yesterday — several times. Several times watching the video not several times making it. Turned out perfect although I used one egg too many – 2 extra large. 2 large would've been better but seeing as how I like a lot of sauce, this did turn out perfect. Used uncured bacon which isn't overly salty. Parm-Reg. No romano-pecorino. I flirted with the idea of adding shrimp, but maybe next time. Wanted to taste the classic. Thanks Chef John.

  2. any tips on not causing the eggs to overcook? 🙁 ive got scrambled eggs in the pasta….

  3. Exceptional research and authenticity in all your videos. As an Italian I appreciate your passion for food and attention to details in the preparation of your Italian based recipes. Well done Chef John !!! Please continue to share your culinary experiences.

  4. Barilla they homophobic slobs, no buy da Barilla. Pazzo!
    Get yourself some De Cecco or Prince, eh!
    Buon Appetito!

  5. There's no other site or channel that I've used to cook so much good food for my loves ones. So grateful for Chef John. What a G.

  6. I love how you developed such an awesome YouTube personality as you’ve become more comfortable <3

  7. I think the recipe on allrecipes is not correct for two servings 6 oz pasta-2tsp of pepper-6 tablespoons of cheese to the egg mixture was super thick like a paste and looked nothing like the video-it just clumped together and then the recipe says another 6 tablespoons of cheese at the end, is it wrong? I weighed it out, it was 140g of cheese.

  8. I've never tried to make Carbonara before and one of my boys won't eat cheese so I left it out. Whole family loved it! My Wife and I are both cheese fiends so just added fresh parm for us, fabulous and so easy!!

  9. This is as authentic as it can get, which is A LOT MORE that I can say to Gordon Ramsay's version, which is a nightmare to watch, (garlic! mushrooms!! hot peppers!!! peas!!!! creme fraiche!!!!! parsley!!!!!!)
    even worse than the French version.

  10. My favorite pasta dish. Like this recipe, and I will try. I have always used smoked bacon. Sometimes I throw in some frozen green peas. What do you think?

  11. someone needs to tell All Recipes to go back to their old format, so we can save recipes!

  12. Hey Captain Cayenne, get to the ER. You made a dish without cayenne or other hot peppers, although too much black pepper. There must be something wrong with you!

  13. Oh my gosh! Just made this tonight, and it was delicious!! I was afraid the pepper was going to be too much, but it was not! I used bacon because it's what I had. So good!! Unless I did something wrong there was a little too much water in it. Next time I'll put a little less and add more if needed. This will be a regular dish for me. Thanks, Chef John!

  14. If there’s any truth to the story about the origin of this, it seems likely it would have been made with American smoked bacon

  15. So if it was served to miners, maybe they used coal instead of black pepper 🤔

    Ok,ok. Maybe that was a bad idea 🤦🏼‍♂️

  16. Made this recipe for NYE tonight. We’ve never had carbonara before and it was so delicious. Thank you for the easy to follow tasty recipe.

  17. Do to the 2022 inflation & supply chain problems you can substitute with fried Bologna, hotdogs or spam. 👌🏻

  18. Sliced country ham works pretty well too…. and folks, pecorino is the way to go… it's strong so, don't go too happy with it 🙂

  19. Uhmmm… i thought carbonara came from the smoky flavor of the smoked pork, since carbon also means charcoal in spanish and I assumed italian too. Thanks for the history lesson

  20. My boyfriend is from Italy and we made this version of the carbonara together… He just called me in a panic because he couldn’t remember this video and how to find it. Lol I think I’d like to point out. that when we visited his family in Italy, and they made us carbonara, he leaned over and whispered, “this isn’t as good as the YouTube carbonara“ so here I am one year later, looking up all the carbonara videos trying to find this exact one! Well done! It has the seal of approval from the pickiest person I know, lol
