Easy Black Truffle Pasta Carbonara

Black truffles add an amazing umami depth to just about any dish, but who keeps fresh truffles on hand in their home kitchen? Luckily, a sprinkle of Amola Black Truffle Salt does the trick — and has a much longer shelf life, too, so you can keep this powerhouse ingredient in your pantry, ready to take any dish up a level.

We made this easy Black Truffle Pasta Carbonara with gluten-free fusilli, but you can easily swap in whatever dry pasta you happen to have on hand. If you don’t have guanciale, regular bacon will work as well.
