Carbonara Sauce


Here is the fourth sauce. I always thought that carbonara was a tomato based sauce. It is in fact slices of bacon in a egg-based sauce. Anything involving bacon tastes really good, try this one out!

  1. Aaaah, love carbonara! Bacon works well, but sometimes I use pancetta - or both, lol!

  2. I love pancetta too. My next attempt is to do the traditional way of making carbonara: coat raw eggs with cooked pasta.
