Préparation

  1. Boil spaghetti in salted water; reserve plenty of pasta water.

  2. Crisp the guanciale in a cold pan brought up to heat; turn off the heat.

  1. Whisk yolks, egg, pecorino and lots of pepper into a paste.

  2. Toss hot drained pasta with the guanciale, then the egg mix off the heat, loosening with pasta water into a glossy sauce.

💡 Astuces

Off the heat is the rule — too hot and the eggs scramble. The starchy pasta water is what makes it creamy, not cream.

📝 Notes

Pecorino is sharper and more traditional than parmesan here.

Can I use bacon?

It works, though guanciale or pancetta is more authentic.
