First time making carbonara and think I needed more water in the end, but my girlfriend loved it so that's a good sign haha

Followed your recipe to the letter and had more than reasonable success on my first try making carbonara! Things got a little dicey at the end timing wise but your method of mixing the eggs, cheese and starchy pasta water seemed like the key to a great creamy sauce.

What’s a good substitute for bacon? Preferably not pork. Thank you!

OMFG you have so over engineered and complicated the technique… use Jamie Oliver's method please.

I love a traditional carbonara. You can also use pancetta instead of guanciale. If you can get a full bit piece of it, it's better than the diced, or thin slices.
Nothing worse than overcooked spaghetti!! I also hate it when restaurants put cream in. It's not a carbonara if you do that, and if you can't cook a carbonara without using cream if you're a chef, don't have it on your menu.
I like the tip about adding the pasta water to temper the egg/cheese mix!
