What's the sauce doing at the bottom of that carbonara? Carbonara doesn't have sauce .. I mean it looks like a nice pasta, but that's not carbonara

Only if you're slow.

It was more of a butter & slight oil. I wouldn't say "sauce".

It looks pretty thick from the image, carbonara needs to be combined during the cooking so the cheesy egg gets all over the pasta and absorbed while frying a bit

Italians hate it when you call something another thing. This isn't carbonara, but it can still be delicious.

I'm not a chef, I didn't label the menu. It certainly tasted like a carbonara dish.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

If you enjoyed it then it’s fine.

What people are pointing out is the pool of sauce. If made well, the liquid would be fully emulsified and adhere to the pasta and not be pooling at all. The fact that it’s pictured like this in the menu is almost a crime in itself.

I plead ignorance, yet, full tummy 😉

The martinis are a legit glam shot. Nice work.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Very delicious.

They actually offer a flight of 4: Gelato Martinis.

Where’s the ham?

Where’s the peas?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Crisp prosciutto is present and not always made with peas.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

What? You use pancetta or bacon if you can't get pancetta, maybe ham if you're really stuck but you should probably just make something else in that case.

It's never made with peas ..

Isn’t it traditionally made with guanciale?

I love this now. Everyone on here pretending to know about carbonara (including me) , and getting it so wrong.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

I honestly do not know an official Italian recipe. I don't cook. I eat.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

The Bolognian's I know use pancetta, I'll take their word for it over Wikipedia.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

My grandma’s worked most of new jersey’s bordellos I think she knows a thing or two about italian meat.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Well I'm sure she does

Interesting, seems strange it would separate like that, maybe they're doing some kind of deconstructed carbonara

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

No clue. I don't cook at all. I just eat the yummy stuff.
