How to cook a carbonara paste

One of the most popular dishes in Italy is the Carbonara paste. Its name comes from the Carbonara sauce, which is dipped in spaghetti. This recipe has one secret that makes this dish very delicate and refined. But we'll talk about how to cook pasta so that it melts in your mouth, a little later. And now we will study the necessary ingredients for the preparation of the carbonara paste . We need 2 yolks, 250 grams pancetta (fat brisket), half a kilogram of spaghetti, 200 grams of pecorino cheese, one teaspoon of oil, olive or sunflower, pepper, spices and salt to taste.

And now about the main secret. The essence of the unusual taste and delicate texture of the paste is that the spaghetti and the sauce must be combined together while the pasta is very hot, so that the sauce absorbs the heat from the hot spaghetti and comes to the ready. For this, it is necessary to correctly calculate the cooking time, both pasta and sauce, in order to be able to combine all this at the right time.

Let's start with the sauce. We pour oil on a heated frying pan, preferably olive oil, but if it is not there, then sunflower will do, and pour out pancetta. Lightly fry and shift together with the allocated fat to the dish. We also add yolks, grated cheese, pepper, salt and a little water from the pan, where the pasta is cooked. All neatly mixed.

At the same time it is necessary to boil the spaghetti as indicated on the package. It is very important to calculate the cooking time, as this will determine whether your dish will succeed or not. Usually spaghetti is cooked for about 10 minutes. Ready-made pasta does not require additional washing with water, as they must be as hot as possible. Ready spaghetti with two tablespoons quickly put into a bowl with sauce, mix and cover with a lid. From the heat that comes from the pasta, the cheese melts and the eggs thicken. The dish turns out to be tender and delicious. Serve the carbonara paste on the table only in a hot form to preserve its original properties.
