In the small Fruili town I lived in while in Italy for three years, this was the way Carbonara was made, and it is exactly how I still make it 35 years later. It is definitely one of the Best recipes I brought home from my years living in Italy, and I have always had wonderful comments when I've made it for family or friends!!! It is a definite 5 star recipe in my book!
