"This was awesome. I only did a minor change of adding chopped onion and garlic. The only danger with this recipe is of eating too much of it. Yesterday I had it for dinner, a snack, and then breakfast this morning," Jennifer says.

Chef John says the key to this classic sauce is slowly toasting the garlic slices to a perfect golden-brown in the olive oil. If it's too light, you don't get the full flavor and if it's too dark it gets bitter. His advice? "Do it perfectly."

"Made as directed, it's absolutely delicious. Creamy, savory, and just perfect. If I could give this recipe more stars, I would, because it's also extremely flexible.

"This is a near-perfect and flawless recipe for the classic spaghetti alla carbonara," writes naples34102. "Traditionally, this is made with pancetta, an Italian-style bacon, but I actually prefer it this way, with regular ol' bacon! Just one suggestion. To ensure a creamy, silky sauce, mix the cheese and beaten eggs together before stirring into the pasta, off heat."
