Classic Carbonara with Pancetta and Egg
Al dente spaghetti tossed in a silky, tempered egg and parmesan sauce with crispy, savory bits of pancetta throughout.
INGREDIENTS
1 oz spaghetti
0.5 oz pancetta
2 large eggs
0.5 cup egg whites
3 tbsp parmesan cheese
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.5 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the spaghetti until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, add the diced pancetta to a large skillet over medium heat and sauté until golden and crispy.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, egg whites, grated parmesan cheese, and black pepper until well combined.
Reserve 0.25 cup of the hot pasta water, then drain the spaghetti and add it immediately to the skillet with the pancetta.
Remove the skillet from the heat to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
Slowly whisk the reserved pasta water into the egg mixture to temper it, then pour the mixture over the pasta.
Toss the pasta vigorously with tongs until the sauce thickens into a glossy, creamy coating.
Season with sea salt and serve immediately with an extra crack of black pepper.
