Ingredients
-
4 servings Spaghetti or other pasta
-
4 tbsp Butter
-
4 oz Pancetta, diced
-
4 cloves Garlic, minced
-
4 Egg yolks
-
1/4 cup Cannabis-enhanced heavy cream
-
1 cup Parmigiano Reggiano, grated
-
1/4 cup Fresh parsley, chopped
-
Salt & pepper, to taste
Step-by-Step Directions
-
Boil Pasta: Cook your pasta in a large pot of well-salted water until al dente. Important: Before draining, reserve about 1/2 cup of the starchy pasta cooking water.
-
Sauté: In a large pan, melt the butter over medium-low heat and add the minced garlic. Add the diced pancetta and cook until it is beautifully crispy. Remove the pan from the heat.
-
Prepare the Sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, cannabis-enhanced heavy cream, and Parmigiano Reggiano until smooth. If the mixture seems too thick, add a tablespoon of the reserved pasta water to thin it out.
-
Combine: Add the hot, drained pasta directly into the pan with the pancetta and garlic. Toss well to coat the pasta in the rendered fat.
-
Emulsify: Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the pasta. Toss continuously—away from direct heat—to create a silky, glossy sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more reserved pasta water a tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
-
Garnish & Serve: Fold in the fresh parsley and season with plenty of freshly cracked black pepper. Serve this creamy edibles recipe immediately.
Pro-Tips for Success
-
The Technique: The secret to a perfect carbonara is adding the egg mixture off the heat. This ensures the sauce becomes creamy and velvety rather than scrambling the eggs.
-
Consistency: Using the starchy reserved pasta water is the key to creating a glossy, restaurant-quality sauce for your cannabis edibles.
-
Flavor Profile: Parmigiano Reggiano provides the perfect nutty, salty bite that balances the richness of the cannabis-enhanced cream.
