>"WHAT? You put CREAM in your carbonara? You absolute idiot, the Italians clearly said we weren’t allowed to do that!"

A carbonara with cream is infinitely more superior than one without. Yet still, the average yuro starts seething at the thought of cream in carbonara because it is not "authentic Italian" (as if that is an argument).

Why is that? Are yuros obsessed with the illusion that their "genuine" food is superior to other food? Or are they simply retarded?

Or maybe their outdated dishes is all the yuros have left and now they throw a tantrum at anyone who dares point out that their food is mediocre at best.

You think we're fucking with eggs on the line? I don't make carbonara rn but I can see us using a morney with pancetta. That's probably what you're used to. Authentic carbonara is home made.

>>11942771
Yea seriously once you start adding other shit to a specific dish it's no longer that dish anymore.

Spaghetti and meat balls or pie, or pizza, etc, can have tons of variations but its a broad term. Carbonara is what it is, because of the ingrediants used and methods to cook.

>> No.11943341

>>11942460
A carbonara with egg is genuine food. A carbonara with cream is genuine food too, but it's not a carbonara.

I used to eat carbonara regularly when I lived in Italy, it's one of my favourite pastas. Then I moved to a different country, tried a carbonara here and found that I just can't stomach it. It's not just about how bland cream is, people seem to show a preference towards using heavy or double cream and that just makes the dish heavy and unpleasant.

To make matters worse some places add mushrooms, garlic, onions, sub the pancetta for ham, add chicken, and barely add any parmesan or pecorino. At this point why would you even bother to call it carbonara? Carbonara isn't just an umbrella term for white sauce pasta.

Adding a minor ingredient to a dish doesn't change the name of the dish. Putting paprika in your spaghetti doesn't make it not spaghetti. You don't have to appease people by calling it "Spaghetti with Paprika" or something.

you are essentially talking about a vocal minority of retard purists. do what you want, call it what you want but no one in italy will tell you it's carbonara because quite simply it is not but that doesn't mean you cooked bad food.

afaik, carbonara is a pasta dish sauced with egg, some kind of hard cheese, some kind of fatty pork, and pepper. Maybe you can add mushrooms or chicken and pass it as carbonara but I think adding cream fundamentally changes the sauce into a besciamella or mornay and so its no longer a carbonara

>> No.11943504

>>11943367
It depends on the dish. If you add paprika to spaghetti al ragù, it's still spaghetti al ragù. If you add paprika to spaghetti alla bolognese, that's not part of the recipe - bolognese ragù is a specific type of meat sauce, so if you make changes to it you're no longer making bolognese sauce.

With recipes that call for specific ingredients adding, swapping and removing ingredients unequivocally means that you're no longer making the same dish.

Once you use cream, it is simply no longer a carbonara. You can do whatever you want to your pasta dishes, but don't them things they are not. You can enjoy your creamy pasta, to each their own. But it's not a carbonara if it uses cream.
