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.
