I LOVE Alex' scientific approach to cooking, even when it isn't traditional.
I think Alex takes the time to really understand the traditional recipes first, and only then does he alter them, and with respect.
Im italian and I think the Alex version is hands down the better one compared to the other chefs. But boiling pasta on a pan cringed me pretty bad hahah
Italians are the most stubborn people on the planet when it comes to cooking, and I love it. The balls on Alex challenging it is absolute gold, and I seriously love the technique. Seriously, I tried it his way. It came out so incredibly rich, just lighten the salt in the water.
Brant Martin the pan method is a good alternative to save water and time, not everyone have the luxury to use a large pot just for pasta, especially for 1-2 person serving
@@Kingstonlomusic what do you mean luxury? You're not going bankrupt for cooking pasta lol. If you want to save water you just put it less on the pot, it still cooks better than the pan imo. Anyways for a few grams of pasta it's better to use a short pot. We normally have at least 3-4 kinds of pots, one for each need.
1- Let's make CACIO E PEPE!
2-What's that?
1-Is an italian recipe
2-(average youtuber): ok, we need *GARLIC*
Lmao so true
Well, none of the videos uses cream: the rest of the world is slowly learning.
strait fax
3- also cream, egg, some parsley, some olive oil, oregano, basil, tomato paste
I like when Vincenzo spazes out or go crazy when they put foreign ingredients into the dishes
Vicenzo: 100 grams of pasta is half a portion for a single person
Me: This guy understands me â„
finally someone who agrees đđ
100gr is, as our Italian friends call it, primo piatti. If ou want to eat just pasta for a meal double it (at least).
@@1teneris that's right. I usually use 150g per person. If there is another dish then we just have some leftover for that midnight snack.
If itâs good pasta, 200 gr. is not enough for me. I used to eat 400gr of Pasta with Bolognese. So 400gr. Pasta PLUS sauce. Anyways, my pasta habits are quite extreme. IF done properly. Iâm from Monaco die baviera, the most northern city of Italy, thatâs why I love Vincenzoâs traditional approach so much đ€Ł
@@MikeAirOne Same, I'm a very pastaddicted mexican, a lot of pasta is never enough đđ
Italian reacting to people butchering Italian food recipe is one of my main entertainment. Thank you, Vincenzo.
Lol me toooo
Hahahaha I'm glad to entertain you then đ
Vincenzo's Plate Awesome content Vincenzo ;)
The American obsession with garlic in Italian dishes lol
Unless your French, then u should be honoured,
Everytime I make anything remotely Italian, I now hear Vincenzo in my head screaming how to make it right at me.
đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł Iâm youâre biggest nightmare now!
Iâm glad we had Alexâs video in here so we had the opportunity for you to teach us why cacio e pepe works and why itâs done the way itâs done step-by-step. Going to fix myself some pasta now đ
Thank you Emily! Please cook your pasta to perfection đ
I feel like Vincenzo is my long lost Italian uncle, I feel so welcome here, Thank you for the great videos
Da gek sho
He definitely feels like the wise one in the family, the one who not only has good life advice but wants to share it well, which is an art all in its own.
We love Uncle Vinny
Aw, youâre so nice! Thank you so much â€ïž I love each of you, and your support makes me very happy!
@@vincenzosplate Honestly Vincenzo, Im not even a fan of Italian quisine but I watch your videos all the time. You really belong infront of a camera.
until he sees you break your pasta in half
then you're dead
This man really did a reaction to himself haha
Alexander Chiclana I find it a right thing that, after he showing how others have made that dish, then also shows how he made that dish, to make a comparison and also with a critical note for the fact that he scratched inside the pan and he apologized for that too (what not everyone does!).
Yes he does critique himself which I like. He is honest and genuine. I like him.
just doesn't wanna film it again lol
Haha I remember the original video and I was cringing the whole time because of the metal in the pan đ€ŁđŹ
I used silicon barbecue tongs and they worked beautifully to lovingly work the cheese through the pasta!
Great recipe, made it 4 times in two weeks đđ»
I crushed the pepper and then toasted it maybe I will try the other way now
the absolute madman
"You need a lot of P E P P A"
I love when he says that word just like it would be Peppa Pig đ
Firstratecuntlapper P E H H P P A
Don't forget the W A T T A
đ€Łđ€Ł
Vincenzo's Plate bravo Vincenzo, sei bravissimo e fai felice mia nonna! đ
The happiness on Vincenzo's face when he watch himself cooking đđđđ
đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł Iâm very self-centered
@@vincenzosplate that's sometimes a good thing đ but still you seem modest đ
@@ByMagdaYT yeah, nothing wrong in taking pride of one's own work. He probably spent most of his life mastering those dishes.
@@sharathnavada3645 that's true!
I've noticed a lot of comments on the original video about the metal grinding on the non-stick pan, but the fact that you acknowledged your mistake in this video and the way you did it just shows how humble you are. I mean we all do mistakes, even the best of us, and accepting them publicly is not an easy thing to do but it takes strong character to do this too. This is why I like you even more Vincenzo: you are a very good Italian cook but you're not afraid to be a person either, a person who sometimes stressed on camera, who does mistakes, etc.
Thank you so much Paul! Your comment makes me so happy! â€ïž
I am first a person, and then Vincenzo's plate! we can all make mistakes
True.
I like how you give credit when credit is due, like with alex roasting the whole peppercorn.
Bravo Vincenzo!
Many thanks! đ
@@vincenzosplate I am from the part of the world where so many of the spices come from. Ideally, you should pan cook all your spices--cinnamon, anise, cloves, etcetera. And if you are to pulverize, you must use a mortar and pestle. Those get best results. It is the mark of your mother's cooking. Or a very special place. But it can be a hassle.
Vincenzo was being sarcastic. He obviously has no respect for Alex. Iâm blown away how patronising he thinks he can afford to be. I have to say, bravo Vincenzo, no bravo, but thank you for pointing out Alex to your (former) subscribers! Ciao Vincenzo and salve Alex!
Oh one last thing, you said Alex did âpretty wellâ in the ominous cooking competition, but you forgot to mention how you did, Vincenzo! Was it hurtful to your ego?
@@pabstfamily2806 I think you are wrong. He paid him respect for how he did in the competition (he did not even have to mention it) he praised and ADOPTED Alex's method with the peppercorns and said the recipe was great aside from being impractical to cook the pasta in the frying pan. Why have you had such an emotional reaction??
what happened from 8:20 to 8:40?
I like the way Vincenzo is so polite to the other chiefs even though heâd secretly like to kill them đ
Hahahahahaj đ€Łđ€Ł
Italian people are so helpful
Hahaha
Found your channel recently, I REALLY respect how you critique these chefs. I watch so many videos where the Italian chef gets mad and just shouts and says NO YOU DON'T DO THAT. I'm a stubborn person and I don't like someone just telling me not to do something unless they explain why. When you explained for example that if you add the cheese without creating the mix beforehand you get stringy cheese, that kind of thing is exactly what I was missing from these other videos where the chef just shouts WRONG at the screen.
Like Gordon Ramsay??? He just shout and act like a complete asshole
I'm italian and I totally agree. People needs to understand, not just random reactions đ
@@n0b0dy07 im pretty sure ârawâ is enough to describe whatâs wrong. He also said things that are wrong about the dish in every episode of kitchen night mare and master chef so i donât know what ur talking about
I can even tell why they scream like that. Because many CZcamsrs just show HOW to cook ITALIAN food and many of them just miss the basic cooking. Do you want to use pasta but do something else? Fine. Don't call it "carbonara, calcio e peppe.. Etc". Same thing for the coffee. Why do I drink boiled water with coffee inside when I order espresso outside Italy? Just don't call it espresso, or just get the right coffee right? Don't get me wrong I'm not here to judge but just telling why many Italians get triggered so easily, because they miss the basics of Italian food
@@n0b0dy07 that dude can't cook.
You should react to the â2 ingredient pastaâ â3 ingredient vs 10 ingredient vs 30 ingredient pastaâ and â5 min vs 50 min vs 5 hour pastaâ recipes from tasty
Tasty is absolutely heretical most of the time. I'm totally down for this :D
5 hours pasta?!? Wtf is that?
Or one pot pasta
@@valenesco45 5 hour pasta is just when you forget about it on the stove and come back 5 hours later to some inedible mush in a pot and probably a fire
theawesomesausage honestly I just need a whole playlist of Vincenzo reacts to just Tasty videos đ
Pasta is literally called Cheese and Pepper. Murricans: GARLIC
and P A S L E Y GOES BRRRRRRR
Let's not act like garlic doesn't make everything taste better tho
@@kingterk9033 degenerate
King Terk No it doesnât, Garlic overpowers and masks bad food. If you think garlic makes all your food taste better itâs because you either use low quality ingredients and or donât know how to properly prepare them. This dish is supposed to be light, creamy and delicate. Garlic would completely ruin it and overpower the pecorino and black pepper
@@justgame5508 While garlic can be used to mask bad flavors, frankly garlic is just ingrained in Italian American food, so of course they wanna put garlic on it. The conflict of the super conservative traditionalist (less in a political sense...kinda) Italians and basically anyone elsewhere who just wants to make a dish that is some version of the regional Italian delicacy is interesting to watch, with the Italians usually fairly pointing out it's not the true dish yet generally overexaggerating the degree of distaste one should have, and the offenders of misdeeds against the cuisine, aka literally anyone else, brushes it aside as no biggie. Truly a splendor to watch.
I always love how Alex approaches everything as a scientist first and a chef second lol.
the man is a Electrical engineer after all
If he was a true scientist he would have explored the toasting of the pepper which is one of the most crucial steps. Instead he just copied some pasta recipe (slow rehydration)
unpopular opinion: he's a pompous ass who can't cook
@@riddlemethisstudio Well it depends on your definition of "someone who can't cook".
One is "he doesn't know how to cook and he learns from other resources and recipes."
Second is "his cooking is bad". In this case, kind to share who do you think is oh so worthy of the title: "The Cook who is Better than Alex"?
And may I know of any credentials you have to judge someone's cooking based solely on several videos he made?
Kind to introduce yourself, kind honorable gentleman? It is an honour to meet a "Top of the line Food Critique that can judge someone's cooking based on just videos" in the comments section of CZcams.
(If you can't tell already, I'm taking a jab at your so called "pompous ass" commentary. I'm no fanboy or food critique but at least I don't claim to be a know-it-all and proceed to call someone an "ass".)
He's an idiot, đ because cooking is not rocket science, as Chef Jean-Pierre so rightly states
The number one thing I learned in Italy, eating in everything from Michelin starred restaurants to grandmother's kitchens is I had the bad N. American habit of too many ingredients. Particularly garlic (though I love it). Keep the ingredients top notch. Keep the flavours of those ingredients at the fore. Thank's Vincenzo for helping me remember that lesson.
My pleasure Jason, many thanks to you for your comment!
Agree, the art of Italian cooking is about less is more and invest in the quality of the few ingredients. My learnings over the years, not being Italian, so for me this is art.
Alex is a true cook. His heart is full on with the food I Love him
I'd love a video about Risotto. It's my favorite dish!
Thank you Juli for the suggestion đ
@@vincenzosplate seafood risotto pleasedââââ
Risotto is wrong way making of rice. Its too wet.
@@FerencKranicz hey theređ yes it could be called a "wrong" way of making rice, but I think the fact is that many recipes were born by mistake, isn't it? Nowadays risotto is quite sophisticated starting from an accurate selection of the right rice variety that has to meet precise requirements...to make an example you cannot use long thin grain rice for a risotto etc...
@@lorenzobellagamba2854 it was a joke(uncle roger)
I love your constructive reactions. A lot of these reaction-type videos, the viewer is just extremely negative and trashes on the video maker. You praise the videos when praise is deserved and criticize when they do something you disagree with. Very instructive!
Many thanks Leo!!
your videos are 10/10
you are so authentic it makes me laugh so often, but you also remain respectful even if your italian pride gets offended sometimes haha.
Seriously keep doing your work, this is the first yt channel I recommend to my mother lol.
if you have recommended my channel to your mom, then that means you really like it! Hahahahahah đ€Łđ€Ł thanks for advertising me!!
Iâm italian, I donât even know why Iâm watching this but itâs so funny đ
Hahahahaha glad you enjoyed the video đ
Another great vid. I made your carbonara for the first time last night and was blown away how much better it was than any "white sauce" type pastas dishes I've had at restaurants. Very nice to be able to see accessible and authentic Italian recipes explained in a way that makes them easy to learn.
I appreciate how kind you were to people who can't find authentic ingredients. Cheers! I'm so excited to learn from your channel!
wow, thank you a lot, I really appreciate! đ
I love these reaction videos, as they are both entertaining and educational all at once. Although, i am always hungry after i watch!
Love your style of cooking school feel like back to the future.. it's a learning process it adds more knowledge to a right direction professional way the only way my highest. Thank for everythingđ
Can you show or breakdown the American cooking style of Pasta? I think there is something funny
Thank you Heater! I love making those videos đ
I toast the peppercorns, then grind, then back in the saucepan while the pasta cooks (in well-salted water in a pasta pot). Add some of the pasta water to the saucepan to "bloom" the pepper, then put the al dente pasta in the pan, gradually add the pecorino (always pecorino romano) and pasta water to finish the pasta and create the creamy sauce. No oil. No butter. No garlic. Just like it was in Roma.
AMEN!!! This is absolutely the right way to make Cacio e Pepe, great job my friend!!
Grazie Vicenzo. I have learned much from your videos about my favorite cuisine but I must shout out to Erika Elia from Cuoche in Vacanza in Tuscany for all she taught us during our Tuscan holiday two years ago. Mille grazie Erika! E grazie anche a te Vicenzo!
Sometimes the pecorino clumps and clots, it splits or something and becomes flavory water and like coagulated white glue. How can I avoid this?
@@HSlSerathis hi, Iâm a bit late but the way to prevent this is to mix the ground pecorino Romano in a small bowl with a bit of hot pasta water to a paste, which you then add to the pan which has pepper and pasta inside already. Also donât heat pasta too much after you added cheese to it, better turn off your heat
@@HSlSerathis And allow the pan to cool slightly before adding the cheese!
Just found this channel yesterday and I'm absolutely loving this. Big fan of Italian cuisine. Love you Vinny.
Welcomeee đ thank you so much my new friend!!
Vincenzoâs reaction to cooking pasta in a frying pan is MAGIC!
I like that you're open to new ideas but also know the tradition and why it exists.
thank you so much!
When the dude added garlic to CACIO E PEPE
Me: âwait thatâs illegalâ
Vincenzo: âaspetta che sia illegaleâ
đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Ahah can spot the Google translation logic in that non sense italian sentence
*fermo cosi e illegale
I find it valuable to know the original recipe. I also know that Italian cooking is based on local, fresh ingredients. So Iâm going to keep doing that.
I made it your way this week two times already, and it is outstanding! Oh I made your bolognese too, and the aglio e oilo today. All was amazing so simple, yet much more flaworful like anytime I made them before, with lot more spices. Thanks for all the great, authentic recipes Vincenzo! :)
Wow Arnold, I am delighted that you are trying my recipes, and even more I count that you are liked! Mđđ keep it up my friend !
Vincenzo! I love these kinds of videos. I have been waiting for another reaction video like this! Thank you!
Many thanks Yasva đ there will be others đ

yes
YES
He is in one of the videos, i think in the carbonara one! And of course he didn't have anything bad to say. I always cook my pasta after watching both channels
This is hands down mine and my husband's favorite recipe. You taught us how to make this perfectly! â€
wow đ€© I'm so happy to hear that!
Many many thanks!
Loll he looks so worried when everyone switched the stove on hahahaha
Hahahah I really was!!
@@vincenzosplate hahah love these videos:))
Bless you Vincenzo. From a recommended channel to my favorite food guru, much love â€đźđč
â€ïž grazie Dimitar!
I like the way you reviews videos. Way calmer (even when you don't like something) and easier to watch than just someone yelling and constantly criticizing
Thank you so much! we must always be respectful!
Reason I watched was becouse Alex was there he is the bomb. And love how this guys likes it too
I have never seen your videos but youtube recommended this video to me and the moment I saw how you made Cacio E Pepe vs how everyone else I've seen makes Cacio E Pepe I knew, I just knew that I had finally found someone I could subscribe to for Italian food and italian food tips I could count on. Thanks Vincenzo! I look forward to seeing more content from you!
Omg Jose, welcome đ„łđ
Thank you soooo so much for your comment!!
@@vincenzosplate Thanks so much! You're response means a lot and I am truly inspired to try your tips and recipes in the kitchen in order to get a real taste of the italian kitchen in my home and introduce my loved ones to authentic Italian cuisine and not the typical Olive Garden fare they're used to.
Hi Vincenzo. Ossau-Iraty (from the french one) is a really good french chesse, known for its powerful nutty flavor, it's not some cheap stuff. Truly an excellent cheese, but I agree with you it's probably wrong to use it for cacio e pepe, way too different than pecorino.
Exactly my friend, the original recipe requires pecorino
Thank you Vincenzo! Loved your reactions. I also like how Alex do his recipes. Thank you for the traditional method and recipe. đ
My pleasure, Euri!!
You make me laugh ..your passion while watching these videos. Thank you for giving your recipe at the end.
He reacted to himself! How meta is this!
Glad he commented on the water amount in his own old video. I would have been afraid to have that much. Now I know! Thanks!
I love these videos. It's really clear to see your passion of pasta dishes here and I can learn some tips too
Thank you William! I really LOVE pasta, and I would like it to always be done right!!
Hi Vincenzo,
First time watchers here. My wife and I recently made your Bolognese sauce recipe - it was absolutely FANTASTIC! Really opened our eyes to a true Italian style of cooking. You have really won my wife and I over with that recipe. We plan on making your (your grandmother's?) lasagna recipe next and are really looking forward to it.
Your channel is a favorite of ours - fantastic content! thank you!
Re: Alex a few things. 1) The large part for boiling pasta is so that the boiling will agitate the pasta, causing it to shed starch which will then circulate through the water. The constant stirring motion he's making in the more shallow water accomplishes the same thing- it's just pasta moving through water that causes the shedding of the starch. 2) This isn't even that much of an aberration - Pasta Risottata is an Italian method and it's basically the same as what he's doing here. If you'd like me to, I can find videos of people doing it in Italian. 3) Kenji Lopez-alt has done food lab side-by-side comparisons of this method, it works fine, even if it wasn't present in Italian cooking traditions (which to be clear, it is), if you have empirical experiments that show it works as well you shouldn't ignore them.
Yeah he pretty much admitted that in the video though he was just like. "He's right but I'm mad about it" lmao
You kind of miss the point. Vincenzo isn't mad that the taste won't be right, he's annoyed they're using methods you can't use in batch. Italians love to invite people over, you can't make 400 grams (2 people) with this method, let alone more. I think that's what gets to his sensibilities.
@@TheCritizen It's harder to do repeats, but the method works just fine with more than one person, I do this several times a week for a household of 6. You just need a relatively wide pan (or even a wok will do). I essentially only use the large pot method for fresh pasta that won't hold up to vigorous stirring. A variation on Alex's method also works very well for an American mac and cheese. As to why I use a method similar to Alex's, it's primarily that total cooking time is shorter (I put the pane on the stove, turn it on, turn on my electric tea kettle to preheat some water while I do prep, and typically have dinner made within 15 minutes)
@@TheCritizen Iâm not sure how the portions make any difference. Even if you cook the pasta in the pot, you still need to finish cooking it in the pan to mantecare it. So youâll still need a pan big enough to fit your pasta anyway.
Risottata is basically just an extended mantecura to release more starch for a creamier sauce. But the tools are basically the same.
Luciano the pasta boss himself uses this method (see #2 and #3) czcams.com/video/DK3FC1cQPKg/video.html
@@doodeedah6409 No you donât. What the hell lol.
When you put pasta in a pan to cook it with water, it canât touch other pasta too much and has to be able to be straight/not clumped up. Once itâs done and you add the sauce, you stack itâŠ
In fairness to Kenji, he did say he was gonna piss off a lot of Italians.
Real Italians cook with whatâs local and delicious...
@ David Fuller
Since Serious Eats I used to love Kenjiâs insights on American dishes, but to be frank, just as for most American food authors and cooks, when it comes to foreign cuisines, approach is a bit... cartoonish
@@ytreece sounds like everyone, everywhere
@@Junereth it is. Iâm just saying Iâm not buying tomatoes from Italy when I have excellent tomatoes in the back yard. Or pork from Italy if Iâm curing pork. Iâll pay attention to technique, but Iâm not buying an international product when I already have it.
@@gambapuirida6216 Kenji has an untraditional approach to cooking. He frequently says that you should cook it the way you enjoy it. Add garlic to cacio e pepe? why not, garlic is delicious

Recognizing the pepper techniques of Alex is class
I'm Italian and I thought Alex was actually brilliant. For the pasta cooked in the skillet I thought it was smart given the reason he gave. If you have to cook for 4 persons I wouldn't obviously use the skillet buy for 1 or 2 persons I think it's fine.
@@jiijijjijiijiij It's not just for the starch but you would also use that single pan and nothing else I suppose depending on the recipe. But I haven't tried so I'm just guessing.
@@jiijijjijiijiij The thing is most chefs who shows "one pot dishes" they never mention the benefit of it (except having less pots to wash) so I was personally against it (cause as Italian you know...). To be honest Alex added that further reason that made me re-consider the technique. This anyway my opinion... I'm not a chef or anything else.
Yes all cool, but he hyped it so much to just make a pasta risottata.

i know there are alot of itallian videos on youtube that talk about cooking pasta, but i didn't even know about them until i found this guy. what I like about his react videos is that he puts the focus on how the dish is made instead of attacking the person in the video. yes, he does have his reservations about certain channels, but he still keeps the focus on the dish.
Thank you Vincenzo for these kind of videos. Believe it or not, but I find reviewing mistakes much more useful than just simple recipe videos. It really helps to understand what is the original recipe is about.
I have an alteration for this recipe that I enjoyed quite a lot :) This year, my cayenne plants produced more than I knew what to do with, so many were roasted in the oven and then placed in the food processor. Such a beautiful and sweet aroma.... masking the fires of hell lol. I added just a little of that to the black pepper when I toasted it. Just a pinch went a long way.
I tried it... it was good. Thank you! Could you please make more âeasyâ italien recipes? or some light vegetarian dishes?
All respect and love from Sweden.
Search "aglio, olio e peperoncino" (garlic, olive oil and chili pepper) or "pasta alla nerano" (with zucchini). If u want i made some of them here:

Hi, Vincenzo, lovely explanation of how to make! âŠperfect! Very amazing! Thank you!
Glad you liked it! It was a pleasure for me đđ» Now you can make cacio e pepe to perfection!
Alexâs understanding of cooking is phenomenal! The super starchy water is actually making the recipe better than every Italian would have wished!
Oh yes Alex is great!!
Yeah Iâm actually going to take that idea and expand on it. Iâm going to reduce my pasta water down from the large pot, and then freeze the reduction in an ice cube tray...
Vincenzo is missing some knowledge. I learned from a different Italian chef who has his own restaurant in Italy (channel name âItalia Squisitaâ) that the key is to cool a bit of your pasta water down that you will then add to your pasta with cheese and pepper (put a couple cups worth into your fridge or freezer for a few minutes). This method really gets the emulsion to really sink into your pasta too, instead of just coating it.
Granted, when he makes the dish in super bulk, heâll change up a lot of things, including making the cheese sauce first. I made it with his first authentic method of cooling down the pasta water a bit first though, and the dish came out perfectly! Super thick and no cheese clumps or strings. :)
The point of freezing up ice cubes of pasta starch water will be to reduce wait time, and then every time I make this or fettuccine alfredo/pasta al limone, I will just plop a starch water ice cube in with a bit of the boiling hot fresh pasta water, to get perfect temperature starch water that Iâll stir in straight to my pasta with cheese.
I was also really confused why Vincenzo cooked his pasta in the pan for three minutes with just pasta water⊠There was seriously no point in that whatsoever. He wasnât making any cheese sauce emulsion at the time. Mine comes out with lovely thick creamy sauce now after following the directions of Italia Squisita, and Vincenzoâs looks like a thin watery mess, even when he was eating it. đą
I love both Alex and Vincenzo.Alex is pretty much a food maniac who looking for new experiences. For Vincenzo, he truly shows you the authentic way to cook tradition Italian dish. Believe it or not, I feel more comfortable cooking cacio e pepe using Vincenzoâs recipe.
Thank you so much Derrick! So have you tried my cacio e Pepe recipe? đ
Vincenzo's Plate I tried. I had Pecorino for the first time of my life. Itâs so different from Parmasano, I canât wait to put it in my Carbonara.
I just love these reaction videos!
Thaaaanks đ

I have learnt something today.
Thank you for sharing your making-me-hungry video with us.
#StarvingNotOnlyHungryThanksToVincenzo - who else?
Yeeees and Iâm so happy!!!
Many many thanks for the support as always, my friend đ we love you!
Thank you so much Vincenzo for that and the other one (tutorial) videos. I have been experimenting with cacio e pepe for so long, and there had always been something wrong with it (strings, watery, etc...). You covered all essentials I needed - starch, temperature, cheese cream upfront, risotto technique in pasta (that was awesome). Last week for the first time I made cacio e pepe with creamy sauce and it was sooooo delicious! One question if I may - do you think it's good to warm up Pecorino to room temperature before adding pasta water? I'm sure I read somewhere that it lowers chances of creating lumps when making thick Pecorino cream. Anyway, thanks again!
Love love love this video. Iâll try your recipe tomorrow
Yayyy đ Enjoy!
Vincenzo!
You should definitely check out "Not another cooking show".
He is good at cooking pasta. I bet you'll like him.
Oh I know him, heâs good!
@@vincenzosplate, it would be great to see you breaking down to minutes or even second his semi-short video-chef-d'Ćuvres. Because I was always amazed by his ways of cooking. I am not sure, if he has something to do with Italy, but he really has that unique Italian trait of keeping it simple, and still receiving a beautiful result. L'arte moderna.
If vincenzo sad everyone else sad with him
Ahahahah đ
I've learn a lot with your videos, I already made this one, carbonara and some others with sucess.
Thank you Vincenzo!
Wow great job Alejandro! đ Thank you so much
the passion at the end when he was reacting to a video of himself is just too much haha
