One-Pot Spaghetti Carbonara | Pasta Carbonara Recipe | Campbells®

FAQ

The golden rule to silky carbonara is to whisk your egg whites so that they're completely incorporated with the egg yolks. This will create a smooth, velvety sauce. As like any pasta dish, including carbonara, cook the pasta perfectly al dente so that it's soft but still firm, with some bite.
Modern spaghetti carbonara is a twist on the classic and while it is a little different from the original, the most important rule remains, IT IS MADE WITH EGGS AND ABSOLUTELY NO CREAM!
The difference between alfredo and carbonara is that carbonara contains an egg while alfredo sauce does not. Carbonara is usually thinner in consistency than alfredo sauce, using the egg to coat the noodles instead of relying on the cream.
In traditional Italian carbonara, cream is the ingredient that should never be used. Authentic carbonara is made with eggs, hard cheese (like Pecorino Romano or Parmigiano-Reggiano), pancetta or guanciale (cured pork cheek), and black pepper.
