Eggs and Spaghetti

Cultural Context

Eggs and Spaghetti, commonly known as Carbonara, hails from the Lazio region of Italy, particularly Rome. Traditionally made with simple ingredients, it was a favorite among coal workers (carbonari), who appreciated its hearty nature. The dish has since become a staple of Italian cuisine, celebrated for its rich, creamy texture and savory flavors. Today, variations exist worldwide, with many adapting it to local tastes, but the classic recipe remains a beloved comfort food.

1

Per realizzare gli spaghetti con le uova sode, prima di tutto scaldate in una padella un generoso giro d'olio, unite lโ€™aglio tagliato a fettine, i capperi e le alici. A fiamma medio-bassa lasciate cuocere fino a quando i filetti di alici si saranno completamente sciolti.

2

Mettete a cuocere gli spaghetti in acqua bollente salata e, nel frattempo, tritate grossolanamente le uova sode.

3

Scolate gli spaghetti con qualche minuto di anticipo e trasferiteli in padella con il condimento, aggiungete poca acqua di cottura in modo da legare al meglio il condimento alla pasta.

4

Fate insaporire per qualche minuto quindi servite aggiungendo del prezzemolo tritato e i pezzettini di uovo sodo sopra ad ogni porzione.
