creamy shiitake carbonara with crispy bacon and busiate pasta
Jump To Recipe
A classic Carbonara is a symphony of flavors, but you can elevate it with the earthy, umami-rich notes of shiitake mushrooms and the crispy, savory goodness of bacon. For the ultimate indulgence, I used busiate pasta, a fun and unique shape that perfectly captures the sauce. Remember, the key to a great Carbonara lies in the quality of your ingredients, especially the bacon. Investing in high-quality, artisanal bacon, like the kind you'd find at your local farmer's market, will lift the dish to new heights.
