If you’re a parent who has a child in braces, you’d probably agree that you don’t want something as simple as a bite into a piece of candy to misalign all of the metal. With Easter coming up, that is a real concern. Dr. James Crouse of The Brace Place in Salisbury joins us in the studio to talk about the damage candy can do to braces.
Tulips have a rich history in the town of Lewes and the 8th Annual Lewes Tulip Celebration is going on now. The tulip celebration commemorates Lewes’ dutch heritage. DelmarvaLife’s Maxine Bentzel stops by Lewes today to talk with Chamber Executive Director, Betsy Reemer, about the event. For more information the tulip celebration, go here.
Development Director for the Del-mar-va Council of the Boy Scouts of America, Kevin Lescallette, joins us on the couches to talk about what it takes to become a boy scout and how it is a wonderful program for young men to be involved in. They also have an event coming up to recognize Dr. Peggy Naleppa for her service and will raise over $70,000 to help support scouting programs and services.
Lt. Tim Robinson with the Wicomico County Sheriff’s Office has a new list of most wanted for us. See today’s Most Wanted Monday here.
We welcome the Brooklyn Baking Barons back to the DelmarvaLife kitchen today to make pasta carbonara.
- 1 lb of pasta–use a thin, smooth noodle like Spaghetti, Fettucine, or Bucatini. Angel Hair is not recommended.
- 1 lb of Bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 1/2 cups Parmesan Cheese
- 6 eggs
- Salt & Pepper
- Read this whole recipe first. Timing is key.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. It should be salty like the sea. Boil your noodles per the package directions, until they are “al dente”, about 10-12 minutes.
- When the pasta goes into the water, cook the bacon in a large sauté pan until it’s crisp but still chewy. Set the cooked bacon aside and keep it in the pan so it stays hot.
- While the noodles are boiling and the bacon is cooking, whisk 4 whole eggs and 2 egg yolks in a small bowl until thoroughly combined. Add the Parmesan cheese and fresh cracked black pepper to taste and whisk a few more times to combine.
- And now the magic! In a large bowl, add the bacon and bacon fat. Drain your noodles, and add them immediately to the bowl and toss with tongs. Then, mixing steadily, add the egg and cheese mixture to the hot noodles. The noodles will cook the egg into a wonderful sauce, but they must be kept moving. Serve immediately.
