Roman Sauces

Home / Italian Pasta Sauces / Roman Sauces - Page 2

Rome’s four pasta dishes — carbonara, cacio e pepe, amatriciana, and gricia — are among the most copied and most misunderstood recipes in Italian cuisine. This category documents the Roman pasta tradition in full: the correct ingredients (guanciale, not pancetta; Pecorino Romano, not Parmigiano; no cream, ever), the techniques, the history, and the variations that exist even within Rome itself. Beyond the famous four, Roman sauce tradition includes sugo all’arrabbiata, pajata, and the full spectrum of cucina povera sauces that shaped the Italian-American palate. Every guide written by José Villalobos from primary sources.
