Saffron Spaghetti Alla Carbonara image

I saw Rachael Ray make this on Food Network the other day, and it looks absolutely fabulous! I was recently introduced to Carbonara by my Italian boyfriend's mom, and it was so good. I cannot wait to make this take on Carbonara.

Categories     Spaghetti

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 teaspoon saffron (about 2 pinches)
salt
1 lb spaghetti, thick (Barilla is best)
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/3 lb pancetta, cut like thick bacon at deli counter then diced in your kitchen
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon turmeric
2 egg yolks
black pepper
1 cup pecorino cheese, grated
1/2 cup flat leaf parsley, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Place the saffron in a small pot with 1 cup cold water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and let it steep while pasta water comes to a boil, about 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt the water and cook pasta to al dente. (Heads up! Reserve a half cup of starchy cooking water just before you drain spaghetti).
  • While the water comes to a boil, heat olive oil, 3 turns of the pan, over medium heat. Add pancetta and cook until just about crisp, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Add in the garlic after 2 to 3 minutes and stir another 2 to 3 minutes until fragrant.
  • Stir in wine and turmeric.
  • Beat eggs with starchy cooking water.
  • Drain pasta and add to the skillet.
  • Pour saffron water over the pasta and toss to combine, season with pepper.
  • Add in half the cheese and all of the parsley, pour in tempered eggs and turn off heat.
  • Toss the spaghetti to coat evenly in golden sauce.
  • Top with additional cheese and parsley. Serve immediately.

I had some leftover spaghetti, so I decided to try this recipe. It was super easy to make, and it turned out really well. The saffron added a nice touch of flavor, and the pancetta and eggs were cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a bit too rich for my taste. The sauce was very thick and creamy, and the pancetta was a bit too salty. I think I'll try making it again with less cream and pancetta next time.

I'm not a huge fan of saffron, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I'm so glad I did! The saffron flavor was very subtle, and it really complemented the other flavors in the dish. I'll definitely be making this again.

This dish was delicious! The saffron gave it a beautiful golden color and a subtle floral flavor. The pancetta was crispy and salty, and the eggs and cheese created a creamy and rich sauce. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a bit of a disappointment. The saffron flavor was too subtle, and the sauce was a bit too thin. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
