Molto Mario Full Episode: Basic Pasta Sauces Chef Mario Batali Guest Michael Stipe (REM) Recipes Basic Tomato Sauce Ragu Bolognese Fresh Pasta Bechamel Sauce
Hey Molto Fan... Seeing these are very near and dear to my heart, because I worked on every MM episode as a Food Network camera man. I was on the jib camera and got all the food shots. Of all the Food Network series I’ve worked on (80 series in total), Molto Mario is one of my favorites! Thanks for posting!!!
@@njdevil8950 He was great. A true professional. We would shoot five episodes a day, and be done by lunch time. This show was one of the best on Food Network and I’ve worked on them all from 1996 - 2021, including Emeril Live, 30 Minute Meals, Iron Chef, Chopped, The Kitchen, and countless others. I was once featured in a New Yorker magazine article that pretty much labeled me a Food Pornographer! 😂
@@oneitalia2312 Yes, It has been such a "fall from grace"!! From great Food network shows like Mario's here (ca late 90's) to now that spike haired little guy feeding his fat face all over the place on D, D & D. Or Dumb, Dumber & Dumbest as I call his show!!
Johannes Romanides What? When they used a finishing oil as a cooking oil? If you’re heating up an actual extra virgin olive oil to the heat that you need to make those onions scream like that, you’ve basically wasted your money. All the stuff that makes a good extra virgin olive oil an actual thing is stuff that has a horrible smoke point. So he burned off all the good parts of the olive oil.
@@DinoSarma - Mario was doing his part to increase the demand for Italian olive oil in order to help out the economy of Italy. I think he knew that informed people would know better, but in an American television audience, that's an insignificant fraction.
@@CookinginRussia I see your point, but it's a pretty scummy thing to do to purport to be an authority on food, and then turn around and lie like that. It's a slap in the face to all the food educators that came onto Food Network before him, and on public access before that. The whole point of a cooking show is to give the best most accurate information you can. I get that there's a demographic he's reaching, of wealthy foodie types who will flock to the store, but there's no reason to waste the good stuff on high heat searing. Which basically tells me that he's not using the real extra virgin olive oil, because he's not smoking out his kitchen. The little twit even goes so far as to encourage people to DEEP FRY with extra virgin olive oil. What even.
@@DinoSarma - He is an expert in what he does. He worked directly under Marco Pierre White (along with Gordon Ramsay) at Harveys - a celebrated 3 Michelin star restaurant. The smoking point of oil is not when it starts fuming with smoke - that's much hotter. Olive oil is okay to deep fry in, providing you are not going above about 165 degrees Celsius. The issue is that it is a waste of the finer qualities of the oil and very expensive IF you are not in an area that produces it. If you live in Italy, or you get it given to you free (as in Mario's case) then there's no reason not to use it, other than it being wasteful.
*sigh* When Food Network had real shows. Molto Mario, Good Eats, Emeril Live, Tyler's Ultimate... real cooking shows with explanations and insanely great recipes instead of a thousand reality shows with terrible people trying to cook for teams under chefs, or dramatic girls in cupcake wars.
Can't forget Good Eats; that show was insane with its information. Some of the sideshow acts were a little dumb, but I appreciate them trying to appeal to kids as well.
That's how I initially felt when all these celebrity chefs displaced those chefs like Sara Moulton & David Rosengarten and Food Network wasn't an entertainment channel but an informational one - there were wonderful shows without all the fake-TV trappings. That said, they did a great job with these programs but yes, it is now a shell of itself...at least Good Eats is coming back, tho on what network I have no idea.
Miss this dude so much. Thank you so much for posting this. Didn't realize how good this show really was back then. Didn't cook in my kitchen back in those days and didn't care. These shows were gold.
Michael: What if someone in your family doesn’t like garlic? Mario: Then they should be bound and gagged and forced to listen to REM until they change their mind.
I so enjoy watching shows like this over the current cooking completions I see on the boobtube. Also reading a recipe out of a book is good but being able to see the technique professional chefs use and all of the little pointers is fantastic and so much more helpful.
I love and miss Mario. I believe that there was such an over-reaction to his inebriated behavior. It's a bit like throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
Craig Braelow He was a victim of the Me Too Movement. He wasn't always ethical with his employees, but privately settled out of court. I really liked watching him regardless. If I were to be judgemental about people on t.v. or movies, I wouldn't be able to watch anything. LOL
@Craig Braelow My daughter, who is going to be 25, is completely immune to the Beatles. I am in love. You are completely right about the snowflakes. I am glad to have others that get it. You get it. I am your fan.
Good to see you, even if this is a rerun. I love to watch people cook, you where always one of them he best, they really aren't like this any more. Hope you are doing well.
@@yourdadsotherfamily3530 Man, I tell you, what I wouldn't give to show up on that set with a fire extinguisher and just blast that REM looking guy for his incendiary commentary. You don't like Garlic, guess what. Pain train is here.
@@adv-fabiod4505 Not a Fieri fan, but he has been a massive positive influence to a ton family-owned restaurants and little food joints he has visited. He has literally changed the fortunes and fates of a ton of restaurants for generations. Thats not hyperbole.
Jorge Pollo. TV shows are timed and chefs have to move FAST and talk fast to fit it all in an episode. Gordon Ramsey...same. Jamie Oliver....same. It's the nature of TV cooking. No choice.
@@philosopher0076 this guy is on another level completely. And there are plenty of tv chefs who don't talk this fast. Martha Stewart, Ina Garten, Jacques Pepin...
Jorge Pollo Pepin and Stewart, etc., don't give all the history and geographic origins and so on, that Battali does. You have to talk fast to get all that info in. Mario csre about truly educating his culinary audience.
I’m tripping balls right now and I’ve watched this three times and I feel like hasn’t stopped talking. That Vesuvius bit lost me, he was going off or am I just high af. Im a chef and it reminds me when a meth head trained you on sauté in five minutes on a Friday and threw you into battle.
You must've been drunk af. His vesuviu bit makes sense unless you think Vesuviu is only a pizza and have no idea why he is talking about eruptions and good soil.
This looks like an excellent meal for lunch! Italy's shops tend to shut down for siesta after one pm. The shops are very interesting as well as the local cuisine.
Wow its wonderful I know it seems easy but its gonna be a challenge to make particularly the homemade pasta. Looks delicious thou! I love Italian food will try this. Thank you
i like how you gave us a back ground story about olive oil, butter and lard, pretty cool, the next sauce im going to make im going to hybrid butter and olive oil

@@ColonialTwinFollies which are the food shots?
@@ToolFloydChimera All the close-up shots of the food being prepared were shot at a higher angle in order to get good angles inside pots etc.
"If people don't like garlic or onions just take them out"
Yeah. Take them out as in mafia style.
@Dusty Shackleford , He meant, just leave them out of the recipe....
Right on.
Why would somebody got to an Italian restaurant if they don't like onions or garlic, that's crazy talk! 😆
@@yournamehere1886 r/wooosh
You cannot have Italian food without onions or garlic. Fuck off you weasel, Mr Stipe.
I much prefer these type shows where I can actually learn something than the current crop of competition fake drama.
op3l totally agree a 💯 %
So true. The Food Network has really become a sellout channel. "Chopped" every night if the week in my area.
@@oneitalia2312 Yes, It has been such a "fall from grace"!! From great Food network shows like Mario's here (ca late 90's) to now that spike haired little guy feeding his fat face all over the place on D, D & D. Or Dumb, Dumber & Dumbest as I call his show!!

This must be an old episode. Back when food network actually showed you how to cook.

@@CookinginRussia Yah. That's literally what I'm saying. It's a waste for 100% of the people watching this show. That's why he's a scumbag.
True cook,
knows his topic incredibly well,
way ahead of his time,
puts todays shows into shame.
no
This guy is brilliant because he explains and can talk about each ingredient... brilliant for learners to watch - subscribing for more haha
Thank you so much for uploading this show.
*sigh*
When Food Network had real shows. Molto Mario, Good Eats, Emeril Live, Tyler's Ultimate... real cooking shows with explanations and insanely great recipes instead of a thousand reality shows with terrible people trying to cook for teams under chefs, or dramatic girls in cupcake wars.
Archibald Doogan ...... yes I do agree with you I am so tired of the reality cooking shows..... bring back the real chef show Food Network...!!!
Leonardo's Truth Ramsay isn’t an asshole that’s Mario actually a man who has sexually harassed women for years .
Can't forget Good Eats; that show was insane with its information. Some of the sideshow acts were a little dumb, but I appreciate them trying to appeal to kids as well.
@Mai Va Lee I remember bobby flay 25 years ago on "grilling and chilling"
That's how I initially felt when all these celebrity chefs displaced those chefs like Sara Moulton & David Rosengarten and Food Network wasn't an entertainment channel but an informational one - there were wonderful shows without all the fake-TV trappings. That said, they did a great job with these programs but yes, it is now a shell of itself...at least Good Eats is coming back, tho on what network I have no idea.
The time when cable tv actually making good shows and worth watching. Also those years great tv chefs were born without the drama.
A guy that chops stuff and throws it in a pot? Wow! And Micael Stipe is just sitting there adding nothing to the program lol.
He looks bored too lol... Mr. Stipe.
John Doe yea thats all Mario does....fucking idiot
I know. Fucking idiot. I watched the vid, I know what he does.
do you wear stupid clown shoes like mario batardo?
Miss this dude so much. Thank you so much for posting this. Didn't realize how good this show really was back then. Didn't cook in my kitchen back in those days and didn't care. These shows were gold.
Me too!
Ah the music brings u back to the late 90s! It’s awesome. My nana and I watched this show.
Ah yes...back when The Food Network was actually worth watching.
This history professor is an excellent chef.
ROFL
Dude’s a bloviator.
Christopher Yang and you’re trash that doesn’t respect the free knowledge that is being willingly given. Gtfo lame.
Joe G LMFAOOOO 🤣🤣🤣🤣
this chef is history
I think Food Network used to pay everyone in cocaine
Speed cooking; I thought the same thing.
100g just over 3oz
Michael: What if someone in your family doesn’t like garlic?
Mario: Then they should be bound and gagged and forced to listen to REM until they change their mind.
Are you a Trumptard?
@@rax816 Let me guess: you don't know who Mario's guest was.
3:55 I'm stunned that Michael waited that long to whine LOL
Ha, Mario knocking the French on almost every show.
good! france is overrated lol
Joseph1NJ parse.
i live in cannes and the food is complete garbage. i was a chef in canada. here they microwave salmon. lol. disgusting
I love molto mario. So informative and a real learning experience.
Man such goid memories of food network and specificly this series id be off sick from work and watch it mid day also great
Thanks so much for posting these
Totally craving fresh pasta now!!
Stipe: What if someone doesn't like garlic?
Mario: What about if use this cheese grater on your face Michael?
You know that was the first thought that came into his mind...
Michael stipe needs a fist to his face. Stupid q
Lamashtu laughing 😋
Stipe: What if someone doesn't like garlic?
Mario: What if someone doesn't like ladyboys who wear hats indoors?
@@ianelgar6472 yeh he does not you 🤔
I have learned so much from him! I love Italian cooking!
One of my favorite episodes, of one of my favorite shows
I LOVE GARLIC with onions. These (2) go in ALL my savory dishes particularly if it's a TOMATO SAUCE.
a menage a toi,.....so to speak, ….those particular 3 cooking ingredients!! :D
dont say dumb crap that everyone knows already
I love how he says he's making the pasta dough with the well method, to respect the old way, then uses a pasta machine literally 2 minutes later.
What do you want him to use you goof?
@@Iceis_Phoenix Uh, his hands?
Nice! I really enjoyed watching this!
I miss you and your wonderful shows🤙🏼
best chef. so precise and efficient.
Italian American (from Seattle) living in former AustroHungarian empire, confirms: this IS the Lard Belt.
You fully comprehend what it is about.
Thank you.
Thanks Mario - Love to watch you
i love molto. grew up watching this with mom
I was happy to discover that Michael Stipe was in the audience and not really featured in the sauce.
LOL!
I loved this show.
Great job Chef! That's some great cooking Mario!
Thee OG of cook shows my favorite storyteller! Come back Mario! TV needs u buddy!!
Don't you mean the original pervert insect slob
I love your history lessons as you explain your cooking! Well done!
history? yeah! he makes up a lot of nonsense stuff!
79 AD not 72AD
who are you addressing? you think this is molesters personal channel?
I love to watch him cook!
I so enjoy watching shows like this over the current cooking completions I see on the boobtube. Also reading a recipe out of a book is good but being able to see the technique professional chefs use and all of the little pointers is fantastic and so much more helpful.
Such a shame he's not on tv,still love his cooking,and watch his videos..great cook

Best cooking show ever
Good to see you, even if this is a rerun. I love to watch people cook, you where always one of them he best, they really aren't like this any more. Hope you are doing well.
Brings back memories
If people don't like garlic, then they don't eat!!!
sir... may I have some more garlic please?
Garlic is very healthy to eat... I love it!
Burger King is down the street.
Miss you mario😔
That's what I'm saying. Garlic is epic!
I like how he just dropped the scratch pasta to the prepped dough 😆
The simple success of this show, which still works today, is just Mario, a kitchen, and a camera. A producer's dream.
Beautiful Chef , very tasty ,looks deliciously YUMMY
Saly x
I miss this show a lot. Mario was such informative and entertaining dude.
"what if someone doesn't like garlic?".... give them a grilled cheese sandwich
While they are turned drive a stake into their obviously undead cold beating heart
@@yourdadsotherfamily3530 Man, I tell you, what I wouldn't give to show up on that set with a fire extinguisher and just blast that REM looking guy for his incendiary commentary. You don't like Garlic, guess what. Pain train is here.
I like how you talk about the area and history of how the dish originated.
Bring back shows like this. 🙏 😭
I never take the garlic out later. When it is cooked it gets very sweet and adds a new flavor.
The food network wasn't always 24 hours of Guy Fieri?
Hate that fake guy fiero and his fucked up hair, guy is all about himself not the food

no!! there's actually 2 fucking jerks!
I love Mario's show. What an artist!
CON artist.
Great chef!
Way back when Food Network was watchable.
Mario Batali is a maniac. The guy is always going 100 mph.

Because he was a coke& sex addict.
Thank you for your videos
Love the fact that they didn't make a huge deal that Micheal Stipe was there. Sure he liked that too. Super cool 🐈
He's not interesting.
Back when I used to skip school to watch food network.
If I ever sat down to the dinner table with a hat on, my grandmother would swat me.
Good for her. Haha!
Get a grip
I've really enjoyed the video!
I like this guy!!!!! The way cooking shows should be.....
I love Mario!!!
he likes sexual assault.
José A Guzman, he stole his employees tips.
He's a total fraud.
That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight.
Losing my religion
Tryin' to keep.....
O no I've said too much
I haven't said enough
This dude is brilliant. Great chef; just watch and learn.
ya Just like David Spade from tommy boy.......watch and learn he says
I love the music !!
I’m tripping balls right now and I’ve watched this three times and I feel like hasn’t stopped talking. That Vesuvius bit lost me, he was going off or am
I just high af. Im a chef and it reminds me when a meth head trained you on sauté in five minutes on a Friday and threw you into battle.

You don't invite them.
Who's inviting vampires to dinner parties anyway?
@@Zkkr429 Right, they are not there for the pasta and sauce; but something else red,... maybe!
wheres my wooden cross
A real cooking show!!
Amazing!
Back when the chefs told great stories and cooked amazing food with no shortcuts #classics
I love and respact Mario and I really love to meet him hopefully soon.
uZahra Aslani, is that still true today?
Did you hear? He's in trouble for sexual assault
Wear your chastity belt when you meet him. And carry no cash.
this aged very well
I just subscribed. Mario, I'm have way thru this and I like it. Educational!
i love Mario Batali. so funy and authntic
He has to be one of the best TV chefs of all time.
He may cook good but that mouth is TOO much. He's way too condescending! 😒
Action Bronson brought me here
Love Mario! and his gift of gab
This looks like an excellent meal for lunch! Italy's shops tend to shut down for siesta after one pm. The shops are very interesting as well as the local cuisine.
This is 30 minutes of a culinary genius enjoying his favorite food....cocaine
I WISH I had a bunch of coke I would sniffy all day
Wow, this was so fun and to top it off, we actually learn something without feeling intimidated. Thank you, Chef xo
work with him. I did and got touched
Wow its wonderful I know it seems easy but its gonna be a challenge to make particularly the homemade pasta. Looks delicious thou! I love Italian food will try this. Thank you
Such a talent.
The perv cooks
watching the stars and yet you're watching ( you hypocrite ) yah go watch a Michael Jackson video or even a Bill Cosby video!!!
@kool-aidcorncrap7880
get a life bro, those people had talent
Finally someone who agrees with me that Thyme is the best for tomatosauce!! 😎
your sick
Mario is that line cook who keeps his cool.. Bravo
i like how you gave us a back ground story about olive oil, butter and lard, pretty cool, the next sauce im going to make im going to hybrid butter and olive oil
absolutely not
losing my linguine. shiny happy panna cotta.carbonara of life.
What if someone doesn’t like “ gollick?”
Then you give them a sludgesikkle
Iron Chef's show was really a great one. I missed it. Thanks for sharing😉👌🏼
what iron chef? Who?
Very nice Chef.
His fresh pasta dough was way to dry. That was never gonna come together.
Just recently, Stipe had to write a new song for Mario: Losing My Profession.....
Now that's funny
Mario was due in court today. I wonder what will be the outcome.
