Ingredients
Kosher salt, to taste
1 tbsp olive oil
7 oz guanciale, cut into 1½-by-½-inch strips
1/2 cup white wine
1 cup Pecorino Romano, grated, plus more for garnish
Wine Pairing
Instructions
BOIL large pot of water over high heat. Season the water with salt. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, 9 to 11 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid.
HEAT the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Add the guanciale and cook, turning often, until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
