4 Levels of Pasta Carbonara: Amateur to Food Scientist | Epicurious

We challenged chefs of three different skill levels - amateur Joe, home cook Lorenzo, and professional chef Saúl Montiel from Cantina Rooftop - to make us a dish of pasta carbonara. Once each level of chef had presented their saucy creations, we asked expert food scientist Rose to explain the choices each made along the way. Which pasta carbonara would you dig into first?
