0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp sea salt

PREPARATION

• 1

  Bring a large pot of water to a boil, season with sea salt, and cook the spaghetti until al dente.

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

  Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the pancetta and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

• 4

  In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole egg, liquid egg whites, grated parmesan, and black pepper.

• 5

  Add the frozen peas to the boiling pasta water during the final 2 minutes of cooking time.

• 6

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

• 7

  Remove the skillet from the heat, add the drained pasta and peas, and toss to coat in the pancetta fat.

  Slowly pour the egg mixture over the pasta while whisking or tossing vigorously to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.

  Add a splash of the reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency and serve immediately.
