In France, beans of this type are called Kenyan. And in England and America - French. Our indications differ: they are called both, and sometimes by color - just green. When preparing green French-Kenyan beans, it is important not to forget to cut off as many thin hard stalks as possible: they are little better than fish bones when they come across in a dish. And young peas in France are called mangetout - that is, completely edible. With all the stalks. To prevent the green color from turning brown after cooking, beans and young peas need to be cooled quickly - for example, in a bowl of water, into which a fair amount of ice has been thrown. Almonds need to be fried to such a state that they easily crumble with your teeth and at the same time do not have a charcoal taste. Instead of almonds, you can use other nuts or, for example, chestnuts. You can also use oil from other types of nuts instead of almond oil.

First of all, I want to note that many people are mistaken in calling many pastas with parmesan, cream and chicken - carbonara. The correct carbonara is made from cheeks, sometimes it is replaced with bacon (although this is not entirely correct) and cream is not added to it. I do not know the correct name for what many in the Russian Federation call Carbonara, believing that it is cream + cheese + (eggs), but this is definitely not carbonara.

A recipe from a great friend of our editorial team, Italian chef Mirko Zago. With a quote from the author: "This sauce can be used for pizza, pasta, as a base for tomato soup (diluted with broth or water), it is deliciously thickly spread on bread, and we will dip croutons in it. The basis for this sauce is freshly squeezed tomato juice - it makes a smoother, more uniform and richer sauce than from pureed pulp. True, you will not need many more tomatoes for such a sauce.
