This is a traditional Roman Spaghetti Carbonara that strictly forbids the use of cream. It features a rich, silky sauce made from fresh eggs and salty Pecorino Romano, complemented by the intense flavor of crispy, rendered guanciale.
Boil 5 liters of water in a large pot and add a generous amount of rock salt.
Add the spaghetti to the boiling water. Cook for approximately 11 minutes or according to package instructions until al dente.
Prepare the guanciale by removing the tough outer skin while keeping the peppery crust. Slice it into thin, even strips.
Place the guanciale in a cold large fry pan. Turn the heat to medium and cook slowly to render the fat and let it become crispy.
In a mixing bowl, crack the 4 eggs and whisk them thoroughly with a fork.
Rule number one: Never use cream in an authentic Carbonara; the creaminess comes from the emulsion of eggs, cheese, and pasta water.
Use Guanciale (cured pork cheek) for the best flavor. If unavailable, use Pancetta. Avoid smoked bacon as it changes the traditional flavor profile.
Whisking a ladle of hot pasta water into the egg/cheese mixture before adding it to the pan helps temper the eggs and creates a smoother sauce.
The heat must be turned off before adding the egg mixture to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
