I found some pecorino cheese at Walmart which the spaghetti carbonara recipe calls for, so I tried it. It is very similar in taste to parmigiano reggiano.
We prefer pecorino romano, and our local Italian deli carries a very fine one - not inexpensive, but worth every penny. As a matter of fact we had it last night - pasta, homemade marinara sauce and hot Italian sausage, with a liberal sprinkling of cheese, a salad and a glass of wine. That's about as good as it gets!

It looks scrumptious!
Thanks for the recipe. Looks amazing!
My comfort food :)
Hmmmm. Thank you, now I am hungry! And I have a "vegetarian" pie where the recipe required meat (!!!!) and some parmesan to pimp it :-)
Parmigiano Reggiano is a favourite, but Pecorino is good too.
This looks very very yummy, even at 6:30 in the morning. Have a great day Christine.
