Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Then put a large pot with water and coarse salt on the fire to boil the spaghetti. When it boils, throw them away.

* Step 3

* Step 4

* Step 5

How to make cream of egg yolks for a perfect Carbonara Mix the egg yolks with most of the pecorino (leave 1 teaspoon for the sauce) and pepper. Add 1 tablespoon of the pasta cooking water to avoid the omelette effect. The cream must be soft, but at the same time full-bodied and velvety. Intense color therefore not too pale.
