Penne alla Carbonara

Penne alla Carbonara is a Roman classic with a creamy, velvety texture and deep, savory flavor. This version features penne pasta coated in a traditional carbonara sauce made from eggs, grated parmesan or pecorino cheese, and freshly ground black pepper. Crispy beef bacon or turkey bacon adds a smoky crunch, making it a rich and satisfying choice. Unlike cream-based versions, this authentic preparation relies on the creaminess of eggs and cheese, resulting in a truly comforting dish.
