National Carbonara Day
April 6, 2024
National Carbonara Day is a day that invites food and Carbonara lovers alike to celebrate the classic Italian pasta dish made with egg, Pecorino Romano cheese, guanciale or pancetta, and freshly ground black pepper.
Origins: The name “carbonara” means “charcoal burner” and the dish is said to have originated in Rome’s Lazio region as a meal for coal miners. A basic version of the dish is pasta with bacon, cheese, and pepper, and is part of the pasta alla gricia family of dishes.
