🥄 Texture

Creamy and silky from the cheese-milk sauce and runny egg yolks, with al dente pasta providing a satisfying bite. Crispy salami strips add crunchy, chewy contrast while diced red bell pepper offers occasional tender, slightly crisp pops.

👃 Aroma

Warmly savory with cured salami and melted cheese upfront, backed by buttery richness. Subtle sweet-roasted bell pepper notes and a faint eggy creaminess round out the scent profile.

🍷 Pairs Well With

A crisp, acidic white like Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc to cut the richness (or a light pilsner); non-alcoholic option: sparkling water with lemon.

🥗 Side Dishes

A peppery arugula salad with lemon vinaigrette to brighten the plate; or simple roasted/steamed vegetables. Crusty bread is also good for sopping up runny yolks.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Boil water in a large pot and cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside, reserving 1 cup of pasta water.

  2. 2

    In the same pot, heat 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add diced red bell pepper and cook for 2 minutes until slightly soft.

  3. 3

    Add salami strips to the pot and cook for 2 minutes until edges become crispy. Pour in the cooked pasta and mix well.

  4. 4

    Lower heat to low and add 1/2 cup milk and shredded cheese to the pasta. Stir constantly for 2 minutes until cheese melts and creates a creamy sauce. Add pasta water if needed to reach desired consistency.

  5. 5

    Make two small wells in the pasta mixture and crack an egg into each well. Cover the pot with a lid and cook for 3-4 minutes until egg whites are set but yolks remain runny. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve immediately.
