  6. Let’s cook the pasta. Boil about 0.7 percent of a large amount of salt water. The bacon and cheese both contain salt so a little less salt was added to the water. Submerge the spaghetti in the pot. Cook the pasta for 30 seconds less cooking time than shown on the package.

Recipe Notes

This recipe will help to avoid overcooking the egg since the sauce is not heated in the pan.
If you like a richer version of the carbonara, use whipping cream and egg yolks instead of the milk and the whole egg.
