  • Roman chef, Luciano Monosilio, has a trick for how to make authentic carbonara sauce EASY. Luciano Monosilio is known as, “The King of Carbonara”. I studied his technique, translated and adapted his recipe so that we can enjoy perfect carbonara without any hassle. This is one of my new favorite cooking techniques for pasta, I believe it’s as close to a fool-proof carbonara recipe as a traditional Italian pasta can get. Here’s how he makes it.

    It’s not about the right receipt or about the perfect ingredients. A lot of people in Italy use pancetta for carbonara, in Rome too. It’s not a great problem.
    What is surprising for me as an italian is that you understood, here and in other videos of yours, the sense, the essence, of the italian cooking.
    The secret is eliminating ingredients not adding. The secret is the quality of the ingredients. Is not a problem of guanciale or pancetta, or parmigiano instead of pecorino. It’s all about the quality of pecorino or the quality of pancetta.
    Really a good job.

      @davideportaluri Před 3 lety +93

      ​@@hanzee6418 As an italian, I think he means that when a lot of these italian dishes were created, Italy itself was a very poor country, and we tried to do our best with the ingredients we had. We used few and cheap ingredients, and that's what makes the dishes so good. A lot of italian recipes use a handful of ingredients: carbonara(eggs, guanciale, pecorino and pepper), cacio e pepe(pepper, pecorino), even a pizza dough uses just flour, water, yeast and oil. Sometimes, if we eliminate ingredients, we leave some space to all the ingredients to be
      distinguishable, as opposed to stuffing every meal with various ingredients. Take for example Gordon Ramsey's carbonara: he added also peas, mushrooms, parsley, cream, and more. Those are waaaaay too much ingredients to call that a carbonara. Using ingredients like way too much garlic or onions can ruin a dish, just because they cover up too much of the flavors! The stunning thing about italian cuisine is that it's so poor, it uses a few ingredients, yet it tastes incredible. Sometimes less is more, and with cooking, it can be like that a lot of times

    • @davideportaluri
      @davideportaluri Před 3 lety +12

      @@CerpinTxt87 It looks like gatekeeping, but I think he has a fair point. Bad guanciale won't render as good and as much as good guanciale. That's the same thing with parmigiano, for example. In Italy we get mad sometimes when people use parmesan instead of parmigiano, because it's a different thing.
      Imho you can also cook a good dish with bad ingredients, and ruin good ingredients if you are a horrible chef, but I think that's another discussion that we can have. Good ingredients, at least here in Italy, are worth it, because a lot of times they cost just an euro over the discount prices, so I'm not sure about prices fluctuations in other countries
      You can also cook a tasty dish, even using non-traditional ingredients. Sometimes it's more about the technique, rather than the ingredients. Mantecatura, for example, is fundamental for the egg-cheese-parmigiano cream in the carbonara

    I've gotten into so many arguments about this. I used to think the French were the snootiest people about food but the Italians now hold first place. They're insanely defensive and protective of their food and they get upset if you make any changes. I believe many Italians have forgotten their roots. Most of Italian food is supposed to be peasant food. It's the result of poor people using what they had available. Now keeping that in mind, I live in the desert of the southwestern US and the nearest Italian market sells guanciale for $55 per chunk, a can of authentic Italian tomatoes for $9 per can, a wedge of pecorino for $17, and authentic Italian pasta is $6 per bag or I could take the time and effort to make it myself which is a totally different issue. When it's all said and done, I'm spending almost $100 on this meal if I'm going to make it "authentic". So of course I'm going to substitute and use what I have available. I use a similar meat, and similar cheese, a similar pasta, and I save a lot of money and I enjoy myself a nice carbonara. But no this is a direct insult upon the soul of every Italian nonna. But remember it's supposed to be peasant food in the first place, not fancy snooty food for rich people. I would like to be able to afford your peasant food but I cannot, so please forgive me for daring to make my own version of it. And God forbid if I should put some garlic in it because the ghost of nonna will scream from beyond the grave and keep everyone awake all night.

    Roman born and raised here, writing rn from rione Esquilino. Let me tell you this is the very first correct, complete and satisfying video about roman cuisine I've ever seen by a non roman. Carbonara is by far our most misinterpreted dish, especially in the US (cream, mayo, parsley, mushrooms, prosciutto, afredo bullshit and on and on). I liked the eggs-over-water twist and I'll try it myself. You changed a couple of ingredients (pancetta for guanciale and the mixture of parmigiano and pecorino which is more of a recent thing, it used to be just pecorino) but for good reasons. You have the perfect approach to this, keep up the good work.
    If I may: give it a try with mezze maniche or rigatoni instead of spaghetti.

    Bronze die cut pasta has a rougher surface which is ideal for sauces to stick to, while releasing more starch. While most commerical pasta use teflon dies because they last longer and are cheaper, the down side is they produce a smooth surface on the pasta which sauces slide off.

    I used this technique not thirty minutes ago and it turned out beautifully. The egg and cheese mixture became so creamy. I feared that I used too much pasta water but after adding the pancetta fat the whole thing came together and I had the perfect texture. Even after getting to the bottom of the bowl, the whole texture remained smooth and tasted delicious.

    I see a lot of study here. Loved the fact that you used pancetta but you mentioned the traditional would be guanciale. It could sound obsessive, but for italians food culture is the biggest thing we are proud of. So watching an american guy cooking perfectly our dish is like if he’s a sort ambassador of our culture.
    Also, when made at home (and outside of Rome) in Italy too most of people use Pancetta because is more commonly available in markets than guanciale.

  • @sithpanda

    Thank you so much for this! While I learned most of my Italian cooking from my Nana, carbonara is something that I never learned to make. I had attempted it once before but the recipe was more Americanized than I would have liked it to be and no where as good or detailed as yours.
    As far as the cutting board goes, I thought it was an obvious style choice. It is minimalist and stylish in the presentation of your completed work. Not weird at all.. but even if it were to be thought of as weird... our differences are seen as positive qualities by those who matter. Plus I am weird, so I probably miss that kind of stuff anyway.
