Reviews for Bucatini Carbonara

This had the best flavor! Rich and creamy, mmmm!!! However, I thought that maybe the pancetta could be more finely chopped as it was just kind of salty and sank to the bottom of my sauce. Will try this with some nice bacon next time and see how it turns out!

OMG is this recipe a keeper. This is absolutely the BEST quick pasta dinner I've made in a long time; got rave reviews from my family. I served it with steamed broccolini and a Zinfadel and it was amazing. Fresh peccorino is key, as well as good black pepper. I'll look forward to making this throughout the coming colder months - I'd like to figure out how to make a lower-fat version (though it probably wouldn't taste as divine!!!)

It is carbonara season! My family loves this version. Adding the cooked pasta to the simmering cream (I use half and half)before adding the egg mixture gives the pasta a nice richness which seems to be balanced with a grating of fresh nutmeg. This simple recipe does everything right. A very quick and simple dinner.

This is so easy to make and delicious. It is however very rich.
