SPAGHETTI CARBONARA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions while you start the sauce.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil and pancetta. Cook until the pancetta gets brown and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes.
• In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the cheese and some salt and pepper.
• When the spaghetti is done, drain it, reserving some of the cooking water, and add the pasta to the hot pancetta skillet. Toss to coat the pasta with the oil. Remove the skillet from the heat and pour over the egg mixture, tossing quickly so the eggs don't scramble. Add some of the hot cooking water to thin it out and form a sauce. Toss in the parsley. Serve immediately with some extra cheese and a drizzle of olive oil.

CLAM CARBONARA

Steps:

• Boil pasta to al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water (plus some extra in case you want it). Drain the pasta.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine the egg yolks with grated cheese.
• In a skillet, sauté the bacon until it is crispy and has rendered fat in the pan.
• Add the onions, and garlic, and sauté until soft and transparent, about 3-5 minutes.
• Add the drained chopped clams (reserving clam juice for another use) and cooked pasta. Cook while stirring for another 1-2 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the heat. Slowly add the egg mixture while stirring constantly.
• Add 1/2 hot (but not boiling) pasta water and chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add more pasta water if you would like a thinner sauce.
• Serve with more grated parmesan and pepper at the table.

ONE-POT PASTA WITH CLAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Place a mesh strainer over a 4-cup measuring cup and drain the canned clams, reserving the clams and their juice separately.
• You'll have about 3/4 cup clam juice; add enough wine or broth to make 2 1/4 cups total liquid. Reserve an extra 1/4 cup liquid just in case.
• Heat the olive oil in a deep 10-inch skillet over medium-low heat.
• Stir in the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook just until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Add the wine and clam juice and increase the heat to medium.
• Bring to a simmer and add the pasta. Bend and press the strands into the liquid to help them soften, stirring until all the pasta is mostly submerged.
• Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is almost al dente and has absorbed most of the liquid.
• If the liquid is evaporating too quickly and the pasta is still a little toothy, turn the heat down and add the remaining 1/4 cup liquid.
• Stir the reserved clams and parsley into the pasta and continue to simmer for 1 to 2 minutes more.
• Season with freshly ground black pepper, along with a few flakes of sea salt if needed-I usually find that the clams give the dish enough briny body.
• Sprinkle with Parmesan if that's your thing.
• Eat it all. Don't even bother putting half of it in a storage container for later.
