Farfalline Pasta Carbonara

4.0

(30)

Tiny bow-tie pasta takes this supreme comfort dish into another realm—it's kind of like fancy macaroni and cheese with bacon, and what could be better than that? At Zazu, the bacon is house-made and the eggs in the pasta and sauce come from their own hens. To stay true to that ideal, you might want to track down some local eggs and artisanal bacon when you make this dish at home.

Cooks' note:

• The eggs in this recipe will not be fully cooked, which may be of concern if salmonella is a problem in your area.
