Instructions

Step 1
Cook the pasta in boiling water as indicated on the package. In a large frying pan, brown the guanciale over high heat, gradually removing the fat that releases as it cooks. Set excess fat aside in a separate bowl.
Step 2
In a stationary mixer, whip the egg yolks with the grated Parmigiano Reggiano and pecorino cheese, adding the drained fat from the guanciale. Let rest.
Step 3
Once the pasta is cooked, mix with the eggs and guanciale in a steel bowl away from heat. If necessary, add a little hot water. Complete with ground pepper and serve.
Step 4
Grate the remaining pecorino cheese directly onto the plate and serve at the right temperature: not too hot, but warm.
Step 5
At the end (before adding the ground pepper), sprinkle the grappa over the pasta with a diffuser.
