Unlike a lot of recipes out there for spaghetti carbonara, this is the true Italian recipe from an Italian! You can't get more authentic than this recipe! Top with extra Pecorino-Romano cheese, salt, and pepper. Note there's no cream, just eggs, and Pecorino Romano cheese is used, not Parmesan.

Ingredients

  • spaghetti: 1 pack (14 ounce pack)
  • ounces guanciale (cured pork cheek), cut into small cubes: 5 piece
  • egg yolks: 3 piece
  • egg: 1 piece
  • Pecorino-Romano cheese: 0.75 cup (grated)
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper: (to taste)
