Advice

In our baked carbonara recipe, we have chosen to use spaghetti, but you can replace them with any other pasta shape, even short, that you prefer or have available in the pantry: excellent penne, rigatoni or tortellini.

So that the pasta does not overcook during the gratin phase, it is important that the pasta is drained very al dente.

For the excellent result of this dish, it is recommended to use an excellent quality pepper, very fresh and fragrant. For an even creamier result, you can add a drop of fresh cream or milk to the egg and stracchino cream.

If you like, you can also use smoked bacon instead of bacon; if, on the other hand, you don’t like the strong flavour of pecorino, you can replace it with parmesan or grated parmesan.

storage

It is advisable to taste the baked carbonara at the moment and very hot. Freezing is not recommended.
