Rigatoni Carbonara

Cultural Context

Originating in Rome's working-class trattorias, Rigatoni Carbonara was a hearty meal for charcoal workers (carbonari). The dish celebrates simple ingredients—eggs, cured pork, cheese, and black pepper—transformed through technique. Today it’s beloved worldwide, though purists insist on using guanciale over bacon.
