[@nicco_7207]

ELIz Lord giusta, ma non perfetta. Per esempio l'aglio con il guanciale oppure il pepe nero direttamente sul guanciale (che non ho mai visto fare da nessuno mi sembra) oppure un unico uovo con poco pecorino.

[@doc7440]

l'aglio lo ha dato come opzionale per cui si salva :P , per le proporzioni, si un uovo è poco ma se pensi ad una porzione singola ci può stare forse io avrei usato solo il giallo, o due gialli e parte del bianco per una porzione bella tosta , il pepe aggiunto al guanciale è interessante perchè presumo ti si cuocia molto e si mischi bene al grasso e sono curioso del risultato , anche io avrei pure messo più pecorino ma alla fine sono gusti , che poi personalmente io metto metà pecorino e metà parmigiano per mio giusto personale , anche se diventa meno "autentica"

[@Elena-hk2lr]

In tutta onesta tutto quel pepe mi dà un po' di ansia.. sono l'unica? Io ne metterei molto meno

I'm Italian and, even if that recipe isn't perfect, it's very good and it's the best Carbonara I've ever seen made by a non-Italian. I was so glad not to see cream and to see Guanciale and Pecorino Romano instead of bacon and parmesan, most used in non-Italian recipes. My only advices are: no garlic, no one in Italy use it; only yolks (two each person) and a bit more Pecorino in the egg sauce in order to make it less liquid. I'm sorry if my English isn't perfect, bye!

[@judichristopher4604]

[@DrunkBrainAllTheWay]

Let me clarify: the reason most people around the world don't use Guanciale and Pecorino, is because is not available everywhere. Every type of food was twisted/enhanced at some point, somewhere, which sometimes makes it even better. Don't be afraid to try. Tastes are not the same, and even that Italian classic recipe was "invented" by changing and trying stuff P.S. garlic is great ;)

I don't care if this is another video of the recipe. Every time I see a Carbonara made without cream, without adding so many wrong ingredients, my heart fills with joy! Yes, as an Italian (alright, half-Italian) who prefers finding and using the most authentic and traditional recipes, I can confirm that THIS and Antonio's version are the real McCoys of the Carbonara (garlic optional, indeed). Thank you Jamie!

[@johnsmith_1942]

@@phoenixwyllow It's just one opinion in the sea of opinions. Does not matter in the big picture. Cream affects the taste less than garlic. It's still a Carbonara. I wouldn't call it "authentic Carbonara" but still, a carbonara. Italians need to learn to respect culinary arts at some point. or they can choose to live in a bubble.

That's how carbonara should be made. Egg yolks only, not full eggs.

[@TheLeyaKa]

Thank you Jamie! I don’t eat meat but I make it for my hubby who happens to looooooves it! He says it is true authentic carbonara and everybody’s agree (including some Italian freinds!) your recipes are jewels

Did I just see this man crack an egg on to the cutting board before needing to use it.

[@karlwagner9283]

Yes, it is a trick to get the egg standing up, he just overdid it a touch, try it gently, it is kind of impressive to show people the eggs standing up.

Does anyone else notice that he slams the brown egg on the table and it cracks?

That is the best Carbonara i've ever seen made by a non italian chef. Very good! Usually we don't use garlic, but it's a forgiveable mistake because the recipe is very precise and the ingredients are perfect!

[@H0n3yMonstah]

He did say it was optional as well, so I think at least he's showing understanding of the traditional recipe. It's certainly closer than Marco Pierre White's version on his channel, stock pots and cream abound. Must admit I was expecting cream here so was pleasantly surprised, think I'll try this out this evening.
