INGREDIENTS

1 oz dry spaghetti

0.25 oz diced pancetta

1 large egg

0.75 cup liquid egg whites

2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp sea salt

1 tsp fresh parsley

PREPARATION

• 1

  Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the spaghetti according to package directions until al dente.

• 2

  While pasta cooks, place the diced pancetta in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté until golden and crispy.

• 3

  In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, liquid egg whites, grated parmesan cheese, and black pepper until well combined.

• 4

  Reserve 0.25 cup of the starchy pasta water, then drain the spaghetti.

• 5

  Turn off the heat under the skillet with the pancetta and add the hot spaghetti, tossing to coat in the rendered fat.

• 6

  Slowly pour the egg mixture over the pasta while whisking or tossing constantly; the residual heat will create a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.

• 7

  Thin the sauce with a splash of reserved pasta water if needed, then garnish with sea salt and fresh parsley before serving.
