So, I've rendered out the guanciale even more, giving it a more charred, textured tinge. However, I didn't have any spaghetti (my local shops don't have good-quality enough options + the larger shops are closing earlier today), so I used fusilli bucati (if you're new to them – think of them like bucatini, but twisted in a shape of fusilli). I think they worked perfectly – the sauce covered every bit of them and got into cavities.

Oh I’ve used that shape before for carbonara I have a fondness for squiggly noodles. Looks bomb. My personal favorite shape for carbonara is mezzi rigatoni
What do I look at at picture 3/4? Eggs with powdered cheese?!
I have no words how delicious this looks….Congrats
Big yum
Excellent. Well done
I love that pasta shape. It looks fun to eat.
NOT BAD
Thats it, im leaving this sub. Why do i have to see someone’s mediocre carbonara 10 times a day
Is that the pasta from Trader Joe’s? I’ve always wanted to use it for carbonara but I made a rookie scrambled egg mistake like 15 years ago and haven’t tried again.
Ooh I used that pasta shape for the first time last night, it might be my new favourite. So bouncy!
