And to bowers6254- if you have a Target store in your area, check the pasta aisle. Giada has a line of pasta & sauces and they sell the Bucatini in a box."},{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"bowers6254"},"reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":"1","bestRating":"5"},"reviewBody":"Outstanding and tasty dish! Easy and quick to make for a weekday or Friday night. Peas a great add over regular carbonara Used bacon since I didn't have pancetta. Also used regular spaghetti pasta instead of bucarini. Looking forward to ordering bucatini over the Internet and making again.

I was worried that some scrambling of the egg would be unavoidable but was pleasantly surprised to have a perfectly smooth and creamy sauce.

Step 1
In a medium saute pan over medium heat, cook the pancetta until tender-crisp. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside. Reserve the pan with the drippings.
Step 2
Separate 4 of the eggs and set the yolks aside. Discard the 4 whites. Crack the fifth egg and add it to the yolks.
Step 3
In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, 2/3 of the pancetta, the Parmigiano-Reggiano, black pepper and cayenne.
Step 4
Cook the pasta until al dente. Add the peas when the pasta is just about finished and strain both into the reserved pancetta drippings. Reserve about 3/4 cup pasta water to fortify the sauce.
Step 5
Add the egg mixture into the pasta and toss well with tongs for about 1 minute. Add the reserved pasta water to the bowl in 1/4 cup increments, combining and adding until desired sauce consistency is reached. Add the parsley and gently combine and place into a serving dish.
Step 6
Garnish with the reserved pancetta.
