Spaghetti with tomato sauce: original Tuscan style vs. gourmet with Cristiano Tomei

  • Cristiano Tomei is the passionate italian chef of Imbuto restaurant and Satura tavern in Lucca. After the challenge with pasta and beans against Aurelio Barattini, Tomei makes his comeback to talk about another great classic: spaghetti with tomato sauce. The chef's first recipe traces the Tuscan country tradition with a pumarola by the book. This sauce filled with memory will 'indirectly' serve as a base for the second pasta course, a definitely more contemporary one. The second recipe, now on the chef's restaurant menu, starts from a reduction of the pumarola water wich becomes the key to expressing the full potential of the tomato! "Fasten your seat belts!" quote

      In the recipe on the video quantities differ:

      But I guess that depends also on size and on how much pasta is the right amount for 4 servings

      Ambrogio Isgrò Ma quando mai si è detto pumarola in Toscana deformando la parola napoletana e non dirmi che non è così! Va bene uscire con certe invenzioni lessicali ma qui si sfiora il ridicolo
      [EDIT] C'è anche un raro attestato pOmarola in toscano ma deve avere la "O" non la "U".

      Raul, thank you for your comment because yesterday I bought some heirloom tomatoes from a local farmer here in CT in order to do this with the best ingredients that I could find. So my question of you is; did you use regular American grocery store tomatoes? If so, we’re they roma tomatoes or the plums? I am happy to know that you obtained good results so I hope to get the same using fresh tomatoes.
      As an aside comment, when I make sauce from a can, I only use only Scalfani hand picked san marzano tomatoes because this version of theirs contains no citric acid.

      You're right, and I can assure you that Mr.Tomei is one of our best chefs in Italy and one of the few that are both good as a TV chef and as a professional. Anyway we are actually criticizing the second recipe because many people is saying "the one made with waste is going to cost twice" and so on 🤣
      My only criticism is on the use of paper to filter the sauce because if you leave paper too long with water is going to release unwanted chemicals. If you live outside Italy you probably have coffee filters at home, they are made with a special paper suitable to filter without adding bad chemicals to the resulting liquid.

    I just made this over the weekend using local jersey vine ripened tomatoes. It is incredible. Really the best tomato sauce I ever had. I am Italian AMerican and my Grandmother makes an incredible sauce, but this competes. This is a seasonal dish when you have local tomatoes. However, it does not yield a lot of sauce. Just enough for 2-3 people as a first course. The second saauce from scrapes is really unusual and very elegant and delicious. Since the tomato season is finishing I went back out to the farmers market and bought more tomatoes. I am making a second batch.

    C'è differenza tra il classico spaghetto al pomodoro e lo spaghetto alla pummarola: nel primo (composto da un semplice soffritto di olio e un po' d'aglio) non si mette assolutamente il burro; nel secondo (composto da un soffritto d'olio, carote, cipolle e sedano) invece ci può stare un pochino di burro (come è stato fatto in questa ricetta). Cristiano, nel video in cui reagisce alle ricette degli altri cuochi stranieri, stava commentando i classici spaghetti al pomodoro. Per questo criticava l'utilizzo del burro

    Thank you, Chef Cristiano! Today, I finally had the time and the ingredients to try this.
    Yesterday, I went to the farmer's market and I purchased 13 ripe tomatoes for 1 Euro. The guy just wanted to get rid of them...
    Perfect for your pumarola.
    Since I only have induction and ceramic, I used my camping gas stove to keep a steady, low temperature.
    It worked out very well.
    I can only tell for the pumerola at the moment because the vegetable water is in the fridge, still not reduced. This will be another day and I will update this post.
    I sent the picture of the plate to a friend and he asked me if it was worth the time and effort.
    My answer was: Apart from the spaghetti and tomato sauce my mother cooked when I was a child and we didn't have much money, this is the finest Pasta al pomodoro I've ever had. And it is definitely worth the effort and time.
    My plan is to make this on a bigger scale, next time and store it.
    Update on the "gourmet version" will come soon!
    Ah, and please, folks, don't make the mistake I made and add parmigiano. Cheese is lovely, but it also covers too much of the fantastic reduction of the vegetables.

      The single amazing thing about true Italian Italian cooking is how simple and primitive it is. The moment you start to embellish, you've lost it. Carbonara is not made creamy by adding cream. Throw in green peas, you have an abomination. His second dish was amazing - reduced vegetable/tomato water, with a little butter added. I would never, ever have thought! That is even simpler than Marcella Hazan!

      Get yourself a copy of any of Marcella Hazan's books. They are bibles! They will teach you everything you need to know about how to cook Italian, and what ingredients to use. Italian is simple, peasant cooking, and the simpler, the better. Stewed tomatoes, carrots, celery, some basil slow cooked for 2 hours, then drained and passed through a foley mill.

      Finendo di cuocere la pasta nella salsa per 2 minuti e aggiungendo poca acqua di cottura (che contiene amido rilasciato in cottura) la salsa si amalgama meglio, la pasta prende il sapore del sugo e non serve aggiungere olio. Se ne aggiungi troppa il risultato sarà una salsa completamente slegata ovviamente, bisogna avere un minimo di esperienza. Questo chef so che è contrario a questa tecnica proprio perché il sugo finale contiene troppi amidi. Beh può non piacere, a me piace, io addirittura mi faccio la pasta direttamente nella padella con il pomodoro. Una volta ho esagerato con l’acqua e il risultato era pessimo. Ma con la quantità giusta secondo me è fantastica. Provare per credere.

      ​@@esiclene No, that's incorrect. The umami taste of tomatoes comes from glutamic acid, or more precisely, it's ion called glutamate.
      Monosodium glutamate is a crystalline salt of glutamic acid (i.e. a negative glutamate ion (glutamic acid that lost a proton) bound with a single (mono) positive sodium ion). Msg is one of various ways of isolating glutamate in a usable, quickly water-soluble, form. In this case binding it with sodium to create a very quickly soluble crystallised salt. Tomatoes themselves are actually really low in sodium but relatively high in glutamic acid.
