    Recipe:

    Melt marmite in a pan with a little pasta water, then add almost al dente pasta to the pan.
    Finish pasta in sauce as it emulsifies, adding more reserved pasta water as needed.
    Turn off heat, then after a minute add pecorino and melt into sauce.
    Serve topped with a little grated pecorino and a little fresh ground black pepper.

    You must be British. After this I will support Spain in the final. I hope the pasta gods send you a well deserved punishment like mayo over your Sunday roast in response to this abomination.

    If you’re not British, same without the football.

    OP, no offense, but that’s the worst thing happened to Italiy since Mussolini

    This follows all the rules: simple, local, and based in tradition.

    Commenters are saltier than a jar of the brown stuff for no good reason.

    I don’t care what anyone is saying. I love Marmite and I may have to try this.

    This is my lazy go to meal. Add butter before the marmite and it’s a sexual experience.

    Hate it when people fuck up an already classic dish like carbonara.

    Love it when people go and create something new. I am going to try this

    Italian food gets a lot of bastardisation by folks across the planet.

    ..But not gonna lie, this one actually sounds like not a bad idea, culinarily. A heavily umami ingredient would make for a great base for this kind of dish. Anchovies are frequently a good umami base in simple pasta dishes.

    Like how the west coast of the US brought italian food to Southeast Asia in WW2 and the cuisines blended to form local vietnamese pasta dishes heavy with fish and soy sauce? Every now and then a fusion kinda makes sense. And this one sounds pretty smart.

    as bizarre as it sounds OP, I’m pretty sure it could work well…. I’d be curious to try it to be fair.
