'Uh, Italians don't put cheese on this dish?' I asked. 'No' he said flatly, 'we don't.' and walked away. I very quietly finished my meal and left the wiser for it.

    The original Italian recipe is known as aglio, olio e peperoncino and commonly includes chili flakes, as Tucci mentioned in his video. Clearly his father preferred it without chili , which is perfectly acceptable, as it's very much one of those dishes that you will make when you're out of ingredients. It's probably the simplest pasta recipe that exists and has long been a staple of people grabbing a bite to eat after coming home following a long night out. It'll also be found on the menu's of most Italian restaurants in continental Europe.

    I like Stanley Tucci, but having grown in Italy and having eaten Aglio and Olio a million times there are a few key mistakes:
    1) We always melt a small anchovies in the oil
    2) We always crush two or three cloves of garlic before chopping it in pieces so tiny it melts in the oil
    3) We NEVER put oil in boiling water or leave pasta 'aside'
    4) Paprika on pasta Aglio and Olio is unheard of. Peperoncino or chilli flakes are fine
    5) The chopped parsley is a MUST to top the pasta
    6) It's totally ok to add a couple of chopped small cherry tomatoes if someone likes them
    7) It's really important to cook the last 3 minutes of the pasta in the Aglio and Olio pan (risottatura della pasta). You need to add one or two cups of the pasta boiling water to the sauce and let it all evaporate
    Enjoy :).

      Yep,agreed.
      That is why i prefer this video:
      czcams.com/video/a0EyzJsf1eo/video.html
      As you said Parsley is a must,gives that ''freshness'' to the dish it really needs,otherwise the garlic/chilli flakes/olive oil just becomes overpowering.
      Also it's best to remove the pasta from the water just before it is actually done and cook it altogether with the contents in the pan,keep on adding pasta water when it dries out.
      This way takes longer but the results are much better.

      1 i don t
      2 i don t chop it, just smash it and remove it
      3 when u have a lot of pasta in the pot is a good idea, few drops in the water is something you usually see in some restaurants

    You are the man, Stanley Tucci! I grew up in Italy. I was born in Independence, KS, but relocated to Italy when
    I was 6, went to Italin elementary school, and spoke fluent Italian. My Italian stepfather would cook this kind of thing, the sparse spaghetti with only garlic and olive oil, because we were pretty broke at the time. I do remember these kind of spaghetti dishes, and I can cook this even to this day and I'm almost age 60! You go, Mr. Tucci!!!!

    love it. “turn and burn” has been an expression in the restaurant industry for a very, very long time. It means to get the guest their food order as quickly as possible, so that hopefully they finish their meal as quickly as possible, so that they will pay and leave sooner, so that the waiter/server can get another table more quickly and make more in tips that day. “Turn and burn”! But also, I do like Tucci’s application of it here to his recipe! Alas, he did not make it up hahaha

      Here in Italy, students also eat "pasta al tonno". Practically you cook pasta, and then you add a can of tuna fish to it. I must say: it is not so bad, but if I fix that, I always dress it up in a different way. I slightly cook the tuna in a pan, and many times I add some tomato sauce or fresh Pachino tomatoes (or ciliegino also) if they are in season.

    The only reason why you would not want to add olive oil to the pasta water, is because this makes the pasta too slick to receive and have the pasta sauce stick to it...BUTT, CIAO!! THE SAUCE IN THIS DISH IS OLIVE OIL.

      Uh..kind of right, but the principal of not putting oil in the water is so the sauce adheres better to the pasta. This sauce is mostly, but not only oil. Therefore, it's still best practice to not oil the water. He should have used a greater amount of boiling water to start with. After all, if he's making a cooking video, don't build in a mistake! I'm Sicilian too. From Alta Villa. Ciao.

    Great actor, awesome guy, cooking not so much at least not this recipe. Use whatever amount of garlic you like, no oil in the water ever. Use the least amount of water possible for the most amount of starch. No need to drain, take the pasta out of the water and put it directly into the pan with the residual water that hangs on three minutes before Al dente. Use more starchy water as required to finish while keeping the pasta moving and jumping. Finely chopped parsley is fine. Peperoncino if you wish. No paprika.
