This recipe is very rich and delicious. Spaghetti with Carbonara Sauce is perfect for special occasions or even just for gatherings. Every time I get invited to a party, this recipe has been the most requested food for me to bring.
I can not really tell which is the key ingredient to this bacon, heavy whipping cream, or the cheese. I thought that the combination of all. So that yes, the cheese plays a great part when it comes to flavoring. Same thing with the heavy whipping I tried using just regular milk before (I ran out of heavy whipping cream) but it did not come out right. So I guess the key to making this particular recipe perfect is having all ingredients together. No more, no less.
