Food Wishes Recipes - Spaghetti alla Carbonara Recipe - Pasta Carbonara

[jessm]

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

I'm Italian and I can say this is really the authentic recipe. Too many international cooking programmes use different recipes saying it's the real one, but this is the first time I actually see the real recipe told the right way!Here in Italy there are some regional variants (some add minched onion with the guanciale or pancetta for example) but as far as I know this is the standard recipe.Good choice of pasta, Barilla is excellent(like the normal one better though).Ciao from Italia! :)

I've been studying in Italy for over 5 years. This is the way I ate Spaghetti Carbonara during that time. You won't find a better recipe for this dish anywhere.

I"m so glad you did the traditional version - I keep seeing recipes with cream in them and that's just now what I was looking for.
I made this just the other day, and it was absolutely DELICIOUS! My entire family enjoyed it, as did I. :)

I'm Italian and I was just waiting for an Italian recipe to tell how great you are as a chef, and I must say, well done!!! This is the real italian recipe, the ingredients are great, pasta Barilla, pecorino romano and parmigiano reggiano: perfect!!

[Greyswyndir]

It doesn't cook per say but it becomes warm and homogenous. There is no "raw" taste at all. This is one of the most beautiful and simple Italian pasta dishes around by far. It's excellent.

i love your quips Chef Jon. 

The little quip about confusing french and italian made the video for me. please dont stop being utterly amazing

[HolographicSweater]

My grandma is the only person in the world I’ve found who can cook truly authentic Italian food, everyone else gets it a little bit off

[kevinfranger]

Tried it as someone who is not experienced in cooking at all. Worked really well. Next time i will not use as much black pepper ad i did today. Thank you chef john

[edmoran]

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!

[TyTy-lyul]

I am in complete awe over how simple this recipe is. I will definitely make this tomorrow

[Amirichi]

I think we need an updated carbonara video Mr chef John sir.

[megaludek]

Watched it 4 times now. Still no cayenne...

[cranberry]

I have been watching all your videos for days and I'm hooked. Your expanations are so simple and it has motivated me to start cooking more foods that I never would have seen myself cooking in a million years. I especially love the variety of simple pasta dishes you've posted. Thank you so much for your videos, can't wait to see more.

Chef John, LOVE YOur VOice! No sarcasm at all, I turn on your videos when I want to relax while drinking my coffee, I learn so much, thank you for the time you put into all of these. It is beyond me why there are so many haters regarding the inflection of your voice.

[violetmartinez]

I made this for dinner and my family lost their minds! There were no words at the table just the sounds of forks scraping the plate

[SweetThuy]

Making this for dinner tonight. I'm salivating at the thought of it... It's like bacon and eggs for dinner.

[juliemolthop]

Chef John,
I ADORE your simplicity. So many other recipes make this dish such a BIG deal. Thank you. Going to make it right now!

[Dr_Bille]

I always use like.. At least twice the amount of bacon everybody else does. Why hold back on the good stuff, right? 

[montrealstars]

I've eaten Carbonara so many times and never got sick. The egg isn't raw it cooks with the heat of the pasta and the pot is still hot when you pour the pasta in it.. so relax and remember to eat Italian as much as you can.
