    I knew someone from a chef school who used to put a small bit of anchovies in with the chilli instead of salt and then a few strips of sundried tomato at the end just before the garnish.
    Best pasta id ever eaten in my life. He ended up going to some fancy 5 star hotel overseas and i never got to eat that pasta again. Tried recreating it but i never could.

      Maybe try anchovies stock. I used chicken stock and coarse black pepper, and bird eye chilli I wonder if I should boil pasta with salt and chicken stock (since you want to soak in flavours). It's easy to cook like the chef for individual portion. Not when you want to cook whole pack of spagattie.

A lot of amateurs butcher this dish on YT; they do not prepare it correctly. This is one of the few professional real chefs on YT that makes it correctly.

    I just cut the garlic into thin slices, put them in the pan with olive oil, chilli and a few pieces of the parsley rod and cook it slowley 5/12, while the pasta is also cooking. When the garlic gets a light caramel color i put in some pasta water and increase the heat so the water/oil mix can reduce. When the pasta is cooked al dente, i put them into the pan and add pastawater until i've the right consistency and add the chopped parsley. I did this dish so often, its all about timing to get it right and your liking, but its so rewarding like many pasta recipes.
    Aglio e Olio and Al Limone are my two favorite pasta recipes.

    • @Brutus_Kennedy_Rutherford_III
      @Brutus_Kennedy_Rutherford_III Před 3 dny

    He never mentioned that the pasta has to be al dente tho to absorb the sauce. His pasta in the restaurant is precooked Then he just warms it up in the water but it's probably still al dente. That's a critical thing that you need to mention and I can't believe he didn't say that.

      I start the stove at the lowest heat and keep it that way.
      My electric stove has the scale of heat from 1 to 12. I turn it on and keep it at lvl 2 till the garlic gets fragrant, not cooked. (I’m using a stainless steel fry pan.)
      That’s when I add the pasta and some pasta water, turning the heat to minimum high heat till the water evaporates. I turn the heat off and add freshly chopped italian paseri on top. Done.
