Ingredients

  • 8 lbs. Barilla® fettuccine
  • 6 qt. heavy cream
  • 4 1/2 lbs. grated Grana Padano cheese
  • 1/2 cup reserved from rendering guanciale fat
  • 2 1/4 lbs. rendered until crispy, chopped guanciale
  • 24 egg yolks
  • as needed cracked pepper

Instructions

Step 1

Cook the Barilla® pasta for half the time indicated on the package. Drain pasta and drizzle with some olive oil to prevent from sticking. Place pasta flat on sheet trays or hotel pans and cool in a blast chiller. Alternatively, cool it down in a walk-in cooler. Store in zip lock bags or sealed plastic container; refrigerate and use within several hours.

Step 2

For each serving, to order: Bring 1 cup cream and 1 tsp. guanciale fat to a simmer and stir in 2 oz. cheese.

Step 3

Reheat 2 2/3 cups pasta in simmering water. Drain and add to the cream. Stir to heat through.

Step 4

Plate the pasta and top it with 1 1/2 oz. guanciale, 1 egg yolk cracked on top, and a sprinkling of black pepper. Garnish with 1 oz. cheese.
