Sarah,
I pinned this because it looks SO good and even I could make it 🙂 I do have a question – is the egg yolk basically uncooked?
Sarah Titus says
Correct. 🙂 Some people put the yolk on top for presentation, but I like to stir it in. 🙂 This is pretty standard for this type of dish. It’s called Carbonara.
JANET says
Thanks for clarifying Sarah 🙂
