Carbonara pasta with bacon and cream: a traditional recipe

Beautiful spaghetti with small pieces of salted, not smoked pork. The dish is served with a specially prepared sauce. Pork meat is often replaced with pieces of ham. This dish is common in the Lazio region of Italy.

According to the first, it was made by working coal miners who were then working in the Apennine Mountains. The name of their profession comes from the name carbonaio.

Another says that during the 2nd World War, soldiers from America arrived to defend Italy and brought powdered eggs and bacon, and the 2nd side treated them to pasta. So the two ingredients were mixed and the dish came out. (The older generation of Italy claims that these were true eggs and dry-cured pork).

Continuing the theme of Italian cuisine, we now have carbonara pasta with cream . So creamy, warm and addictive! Be careful!

The techniques for making carbonara and the recipes are a huge number. There is a lot of noise around this beloved dish: some add greens and nuts, while others categorically refuse them. There are those who replace cream with butter and bacon with chicken. Your head spins when you look for that recipe on the Internet, but I still found something for myself and quickly share it with you! And yes, I don’t claim the “Most Authentic Carbonara” award, but at the same time I don’t want to deviate from the original at all. I am constantly improving in making sauces, pasta and pizza, so I love it all so much and am crazy about Italian cuisine in general! If you, like me, love to experiment and are also in search of perfect carbonara, then join us!

What you need to know about pasta

To begin with: pasta/pasta is the basis of all the basics, everything is serious here. Like other products, you need to approach pasta with your brain. The main point in choosing pasta is the composition and variety. It all started when at some point I got tired of the boring, uninteresting and monotonous pasta, I started reading different articles, making comparisons and came to the following conclusions. Completely for almost everyone lying on the surface.

1) Pasta products should be chosen from group A, made from hard wheat flour (durum) of the highest, first and second types, and their protein must be at least 12 g, in the standard all 13-14! Such pasta is the least caloric and does not have such a big impact on our figure. Everything in moderation, of course! Well, I usually prefer an Italian manufacturer.

2) Ingredients. Naturally, Italians select the ripest, freshest and simply the best products for their dishes. With this, things are different for us, the reality is different. But any small-town Italian restaurant will not be closed because the tomatoes for its pasta or pizza did not ripen under the Tuscan sun! Even on the Russian market you can buy good products. The same chopped tomatoes of Italian origin (I talked about them here: Traditional Pizza Margherita), olives from a large hypermarket, for duck fillet, chicken you can go to the city market, etc. Even these comfortable counters with the freshest herbs in chain stores - extremely comfortable! And cheese factories - at the moment they are stylish and everywhere - absolutely cool, by the way, I saw the delivery of new seafood on Instagram - also great! In general, we are not hopeless!

3) And the last thing: sauce. I can sing praises here for a long time, but the essence is the same: a correctly selected sauce for pasta, with the introduction, again, of good ingredients - the 3rd component of an impeccable pasta!

Let's boil the water

Forgot to mention. It is easier than usual to distinguish excellent pasta from bad ones: low-quality pasta is dull, has little pale color and is brittle. The pasta is of good quality, has a beautiful wheat color and is denser, and most importantly, it takes at least 8-9 minutes to prepare. I cooked my pasta for about 13 minutes!

So, put a pan of salted water on high heat.

While the water is boiling, let’s get to the “insides.” For pasta, I use lean brisket. Unlike bacon, it is more tender and less fatty, which is why I love it. In fact, bacon or brisket is not the case and it doesn’t matter what your heart is most inclined to, then use it! So, let's cut the meat into cubes.

Melt the butter in a deep frying pan (wok) and throw in the brisket. Fry until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes or so.

If you wish, you can add 2-3 cloves of garlic at this step and remove them before serving.

Meanwhile, prepare the carbonara sauce. To do this, beat two large egg yolks in a small bowl using a fork.

Add about 2-3 tsp. grated parmesan. Let's add salt and pepper.

Pour in 150 ml of cool 20% cream and mix everything well with a fork.

We return to our brisket, remove it from the heat and leave it aside. We will return to it a little later.

In the meantime, the water has already boiled, let's slightly reduce the heat and start putting 400-500 g of spaghetti into the water. First, put them in a saucepan, and when the bottom of the pasta softens, use tongs to lower the pasta completely into the water. Cook according to the instructions on the package.

A couple of minutes before the pasta is ready, return the pan with the brisket or bacon to medium heat. And now, once the pasta is cooked, we take it out of the water with tongs (there is no need to drain the water and take out the colander too!) and transfer it to the frying pan with the meat.

Carefully mix the spaghetti and brisket and add almost 100 ml of spaghetti water with a ladle or mug. This starchy water will help us “glue” the creamy sauce with the pasta; it will allow us to achieve that viscosity of the pasta and give the sauce thickness!

Once the water is half absorbed into the pasta, reduce the heat to low or turn it off completely. Pour our sauce into the pan. Mix everything thoroughly, our pasta must be creamy and tender. Remove from heat. Egg yolks need very little time to cook, almost a few minutes, and since our pasta is hot - just a matter of seconds. So don't even worry about this! They don't need much time to cook. Salt and pepper. Let's taste it. Despite the fact that the brisket is salty, and we also salted the sauce and water, there is still often not enough salt. Bring the pasta to taste.

Mix the paste thoroughly, but do not remove from the stove. After 1-2 minutes, the sauce will thicken to a suitable mixture and you can put the dish on plates!

For the finishing touch, fry a handful of pine nuts in a dry small frying pan. Almost 3-4 minutes, and the nuts became a cool golden color. Just look!

Place the pasta on a plate, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese, ground black pepper and toasted pine nuts on top.

That's all, our carbonara pasta with cream is ready. Bon appetit!
