I took one bite of this pasta and immediately knew I could eat it every single day for the rest of my life. Seriously, it is that good. If you consider yourself a true pasta lover, this spot in New York City needs to be at the absolute top of your devour list right now.<\/p>\n
We headed over to Argo in New York City to check out how they make their iconic, ultra-creamy Carbonara. The process starts behind the scenes in the kitchen with pure culinary magic. The chef starts by cracking fresh egg yolks directly into a bowl. Then comes a massive portion of two-year aged parmesan cheese poured right over those golden yolks. He mixes it all together until it forms a rich, velvety base.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, fresh spaghetti gets dropped into boiling water while thick-cut guanciale hits a blistering hot pan. Watching that guanciale sizzle and render down is pure food art. The chef takes all that hot rendered fat straight from the pan and folds it directly into the egg and cheese mixture. Some cooked guanciale gets saved for later, while the rest gets freshly cracked black pepper, a splash of starchy pasta water, and all of that tender spaghetti thrown into the pan.<\/p>\n
Here is where the magic really happens. A little extra pasta water goes into the egg and cheese mixture before it gets poured directly over the spaghetti. The chef tosses and mixes everything together over the flame until it transforms into the smoothest, dreamiest sauce imaginable. The result? Absolute perfection.<\/p>\n
He rolls the pasta into a perfect, massive tower right in the center of the plate using a giant spoon and tongs. Then he ladles that incredible creamy broth right over the top. It gets finished off with extra grated parmesan, those crisp golden guanciale bites, and a heavy shower of freshly cracked pepper. Look at that unbelievable presentation.<\/p>\n
Twirling this onto a fork is an incredible experience. The sauce coats every single strand of spaghetti seamlessly. It is cheesy, creamy, buttery, and packed with incredible savory flavor from that crispy guanciale. Every bite delivers the ultimate texture punch. It hits every single mark you could ever want in an authentic Italian dish.<\/p>\n
Argo is doing something truly special in NYC with this one. You cannot skip this masterclass in pasta making. Head over, grab a table, and prepare to have your mind blown.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I took one bite of this pasta and immediately knew I could eat it every single day for…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":372571,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[9,56,63,65,64],"class_list":["post-372570","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york-city","tag-new-york","tag-ny","tag-nyc","tag-nyc-headlines","tag-nyc-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/372570","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=372570"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/372570\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/372571"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=372570"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=372570"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=372570"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
