REAL Pasta Carbonara

 No cream in this authentic Italian dish (and my second favorite pasta)
 Lots of fresh coarse ground black pepper adds some bite, the pancetta (or better yet guanciale if you can find it) with percorino and parmesan...come on...you know you are hungry
 Farmers market egg yolk perched on top....the heat from the pasta will cook the egg and makes for an incredibly luscious sauce without the use of cream 
A nice Italian white would be nice with this, but we had a simple Italian red that we love, and it was delicious picking up the pepper notes in the wine and the pasta
