All food can be interchanged with some combination of other foods. I can reconstruct basil by combining coriander, tarragon, cloves, laurel. The way to use [the tool] is to take from each branch of the plot one product and make a combination of those food products.

It’s a great tool for you recipe inventors out there. Bookmark it, press it, spread the words, and cook away!

A most delicious pasta with carbonara sauce courtesy of Cookng with Amy. I highly recommend this pasta dish.

Carbonara is a sauce featuring egg, bacon, and/or grated cheese. Original carbonara recipes never called for the addition of cream, although recent recipes include it. Amy’s recipe does not include cream, and I love the carbonara sauce without it.

Update: I’ve found a good combination for the carbonara sauce one box of rotini or other pasta to be 4 eggs and 2/3 cup of grated cheese - or more, until you reach desired consistency.
