On this year's Carbonara Day, everyone can indulge in this simple Italian dish with a new recipe that accommodates various food allergies and intolerances. Based on the results of a survey, Barilla found that "nearly half of American cooks would be motivated to cook more regularly if they could make one dish that catered to all." In response, it released an alternative Carbonara recipe that reinvents the classic Italian recipe as one that can be more widely shared.
Open Carbonara was mindfully made to share good food and good cooking, no matter a person's dietary restrictions. This accessible recipe features carefully chosen ingredients like potatoes, soy flakes, saffron and celery root to "preserve the integrity, texture and flavor of Carbonara."
