Add the pepper broth to the guanciale fat, stir well and bring back to a boil.

4

Add the Carbonara Tortelli and cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring gently from time to time, until the sauce reaches the desired consistency.

Plate the tortelli and finish with a sprinkling of Parmigiano Reggiano and the crispy guanciale petals. Serve immediately.
