Tradional…far from it. Delicious… absolutely!
For all your pasta purists out there, this isn’t for you.
Taking inspiration from carbonara and incorporating some wonderful things, producing layers of flavor that all play well together.
The pasta shape is used, was perfect, they cradled the little cockles perfectly.

OMG I'll be right over! 😋 I bet you have an herb garden…?
tbh, I wasn't aware many Americans had even heard of Cockles, I was sort of under the impression they were a peculiarly UK coastal shellfish DUH !! btw I've seen other posts where the OPs have fish in brine, usually Mackerel and they say they drain the can and give the liquid to their dog and claim they love it, hmmn ?
Now I have to cockles
I like this spin on real carbonara. Finally, a man knows how to make carbonara and not pasta Alfredo. 😂
Amazing. This looks like something from a good reataurant
Tyler, Two of my favorite things! Carbonara and tinned seafood! Gotta make this…
