The flavor was great, but it wasn't simple! Squirt ended up helping Dory out, as the final blend of cheese and hot egg was a bit involved. It is important to incorporate it slowly, so you don't end up with scrambled eggs, yet you need enough heat to melt the cheese. Surprisely, this version of carbonara did not call for cream (white wine instead) and the cheese needed some extra persuation to get creamy. A few short trips in the microwave to gentley melt it and lots of whisking eggs combined to a delicious finale.
Our side items were different - with Caesar salad rather than mixed greens, and some sauteed squash from our friend Roger's vegetable garden. YUM!
