- In this video I'm reacting to some different Lemon Pasta versions!
The first one is the Ina Garten's version and I must admit that she made a good job (as opposed to when she made Pasta Arrabbiata).
The second one is from Sam the Cooking Guy, he definitely made a wonderful version (except for the parsley), he basically mixed Aglio e Olio with Lemon pasta and it looks super interesting, I would love to try his version!
Which version would you like to taste?

Are you a fan of Lemon Pasta?
Lemon Pasta can be good if they don't overdo the lemon,, not into overpowering citrus. I prefer super cheesy pasta dishes. I mean who doesn't love cheese ( I love making a nice Fontina, Provolone and Mozzarella blend to melt into any type of pasta or into a sauce for pasta with some Pecorino Romano or Parmesano Reggiano grated on top). As to garlic, I love garlic, I add that in to my taste levels. Use good quality garlic and Sautee or roast properly adds a level of flavor to any dish. Also you should react to the new Epicurious video on "4 Levels of Pasta Bolognese" to see your opinion.
I love lemon pasta. I do try to keep it traditional with my herb garden. I have made one with a shrimp and Maryland spin
I like the idea of lemon pasta but no lemon here, I try it with other citrus kind fruit instead.
Lime and Keffir lime is pretty good.(I make it today as well)
Bitter orange has nice smell but mildly sweet and sour which is I'm not a fan it on pasta dish.
100%
Never really had it - here in rural Canada, people often do butter and lemon juice, just very meeehhhh - then I tried your recipe, and it's possibly my favourite quick pasta dish
Vincenzo is the man when it comes to pasta dishes. ❤🍝🍷
oh wow, you're too kind 🤩
Not really he pretty makes the same pasta dish over and over again just with different stuff in it
He's the 'Guru' of pasta dishes👍
My fave legit aficionado -> Vincenzo!
( I stopped watching Ina Garten anyway esp since she reFused to meet with a child connected to The Wish Foundation whose singular wish was to meet her; not even cook with her & she refused to do it. Of course people freaked out on her website/twitter etc. & many months later she relented agreeing to meet with the kid but then his mother told her the child was no longer interested. Sooo done with her!)

Yes, there is one reason putting garlic in the Spaghetti! Italy is Vampire free - in the rest of the world the vampires are existing.
Thank you very much, Vicenzo, for sharing your wonderful video with us.
Greetings to Suzanne, to Sebastian, to your familiies in Italy and Australia and to you, Vicenzo, from the Swiss Kitchen Dummy!
PS: Throwing the pasta on the ceiling or the wall should be stopped and made by people who were never hungry. Food waste!!
Hahahaha very accurate 🤣🤣
Garlic doesn't work against vampires. Ask Regis.
@@tabularasa0606 it does! I was almost bitten one day, too bad for the vampire, I'm eating pasta with garlic
I'm from Transylvania, and I'm willing to let you know a little secret. Garlic actually makes blood thinner and easier to drink...that's why we've made people think it repels us ;)
I agree with you Vincenzo. Lemon pasta is plenty potent enough to stand on its own without garlic. It's yummy any way. 😆😃🤣 (Mint would be tremendous, Vincenzo; Iove that idea.)
Thank you my friend, I'm glad you agreed with me!
Vincenzo, you opened my eyes to what American cuisine has done to real Italian pasta dishes. Thank you for that. Wonderful video.
That's changing because of content like Vincenzos Plate, and Pasta Grammar. We're learning.
In my opinion, the best comfort foods are, ahem, #1. Italian, 2. Mexican, 3. Deep south USA, 4. Asian, 5. German.
@@davidbuben3262 mine is
1# German
2#Thai (Cus im thai)
3#Other asians
4# Italians (i love italian food but living where i am can't find most of the ingredients)
5#Mexican
6#French
7# AMERICAN
oh, I'm glad I could help!
@@davidbuben3262 I was with you until deep south.
@@jimv1983 Then you never had my mom's chicken and dumplings. Or fried chicken, corn on the cob, and mashed potatoes. Or grammaws dinner. That's lunch to ya'll Yankees. Quite a spread, with homemade bread, green beans and iced tea.
Vincenzo, I made your version of lemon pasta, added shrimp, one scallion form the garden, garlic, ginger and capers (I have a huge jar of wonderful capers). I did not have parsley nor basil :( Your advice as to preparing the sauce to receive the andante pasta was gold. I even put the lemon halves in the pan and then into the boiling pasta water. I did make one error, as I never used lemon zest before, I forgot to grate it before I squeezed the lemon, but I did get some zest. Noted. It was so good, thank you my friend! I never would have thought of this recipe in a million years. My friend is allergic to shrimp so I will make this for her with scallops next! She bought me a nice iPad stand so I can use it as I cook and watch you show!
Oh yes! Ginger and lemon is such an underrated combo!
Vincenzo and questioning the inclusion of garlic
Name a more iconic duo
Hahahaha 🤣
@@vincenzosplate Keep up the good work big V, you're keeping 'em honest :)
You weren’t paying attention. NO GARLIC IN LEMON PASTA. He really only made pasta aglio e olio with lemon, not pasta al limone, which is a classic pure dish.
Mint in spaghetti al limone works so well. Thank you very much, Vincenzo.
oh yess 🤤 absolutely
Just finished watching. Vincenzo....you made me laugh so much. I really enjoyed your critique! (I made your pasta al limone last night!)
I'm so glad you had a good time watching and enjoyed the critique! 😄🍝 Pasta al limone is a classic, and I hope it turned out delicious for you. Keep cooking and having fun in the kitchen! 🇮🇹👨🍳😊
Ciao Vincenzo! You never fail to make us laugh! Can't wait to watch this :)
Hope you enjoyed it!
Lemon is hands down one on the most neglected ingredient in the western kitchen. I replaced almost all vinegar with lemon. Not only is it healthier - it is so much more tasty.
My favorite vinaigrette for example: lemon juice, olive oil, green peppercorn, salt, pepper, chiliflakes, lemon balm, mint, parsley and chives. Works absolutely amazing with potato salad ;)
And chicken in a pan with lemon slices, lemon juice and then bathe the chicken with the lemon butter...
well said 🤩 Lemon is so flavourful... I love it!
Your vinaigrette sounds amazing
Jayla, what you do is okay, but it's not traditional anymore :(
As someone that doesn't like vinegar your "vinaigrette" sounds really good but it isn't really vinaigrette. Vinaigrette has to have vinegar. It's literally in the name.
@@jimv1983 Saladsauce. There. Happy? ^^
@@vitkomazzetti in the arabic world it is ^^
Sammy lives in San Diego Ca. We love our Sammy! I'm Italian born and raised in CA and not EVERY meal has to have garlic. Sometimes they overdo it here! But delicious none the less!
Love you Vincenzo🥰You’re so down to earth💕Great video!
I did it just now for dinner. Its delicious! I’m looking forward to every new Video you do Vincenzo!
Yay! Thank you!
Agree! Never salt this kind of pan sauce...Parm cheese is salty so add that if you want salt
Ever since I saw your caccio e peppe recipe like 2 years ago, I've been using Pecorino Cheese for any pasta, and it has been the best for flavor and my lactose intolerance since it's sheeps milk. Thank you good Sir!! 👍
I found your channel on Facebook yesterday. Your videos are really funny and I can learn a lot from it. I want to learn cooking like an Italian. Even as a German, it should be possible if I pay enough attention 😅
Welcome! 😍 I'm sure you will learn how to cook like an Italian if you follow my recipes 😁
New video from Vincenzo on my birthday.... Whoo hoo!!!!! 😁👯♂️👯♂️💃💃💃
Happy birthday!
"That's a lot of water, so you are gonna feed your whole family tonight"
Me: *Laughs nervously*
Vincenzo!
Your recipe is SUPERB!
Never tried 🍋 pasta ! I feel that I’m missing something
Cheers from San Diego California
Yeah, lemon pasta is an absolute myst try!
You are definitely missing something - get on this, simple, amazing
Looks 👍
I put garlic and lemon almost everywhere. I just love both that much. 😂 Both fresh only. Never cooked. I had the decency to abstain for this, but nights on days off are garlic nights. I'll eat about a full head of the must pungent, spicy Spanish and then try to save my blood pressure from falling through the floor.
Vincenzo, Americans normally add GARLIC everywhere, just like bacon :)
yeah... 🤦🏻♂️
Vincenzo your the best keep the positivity ☺️
oh, you're so kind!
Was waiting for you to react to lemon pasta
😍 I already reacted to Nigella's
Also thankyou for explaining why you don't use parsley. Mint is great. Next time I try basil.❤
basil will work well too but the mint takes it to the next level
Try adding capers. It takes it to another level.
I agree with you about the garlic, made it your way the first time it was delicious! The garlic argues with the lemon…takes away from the dish!
That's the problem! 🤷♂️
Thanks for the mint suggestion, I'm going to try it 😃
Hope you like it!
@@vincenzosplate I did 😄
When I make any lemon pasta, I always use capers. Not sure if Italians do this or not but I love them
nope, but I should try
To answer your question re garlic, garlic is very healthy for you. This is the main reason I add it to dishes, but I also like the taste. I am Bulgarian-American, and in Bulgarian cuisine we put garlic, onions and chilies in practically all dishes. It is natural antibiotics and kills bacterias as well.
Absolutely! Garlic not only adds amazing flavor but also has numerous health benefits. It's a staple in many cuisines, including Italian. Keep enjoying its natural antibiotic properties and delicious taste! 🧄👍
I see it alot in your reactions as well as other about the garlic. I can't speak for everyone but I know it my house growing up it like salt and pepper. Maybe it's an American thing but it's just like a normal seasoning. Alot of times it's powder but garlic either way.
well in Italy is completely different! It is used, but not with the same frequency!
Sam lives in California! I would love to see the both of you cooking together...that would be a hoot!!
Yeah that would be epic!
Yes. I think he still lives in San Diego. Come show up at his house. :)
I would love to see you make a lemon risotto
Lemon risotto sounds delightful! 🍋🍚 While I can't create videos, I can definitely help guide you through the process. Start with a classic risotto base (like Arborio rice and broth), then add fresh lemon zest and juice near the end for a burst of citrusy flavor. Finish with Parmesan and butter for creaminess. Garnish with herbs and enjoy! Buon appetito! 🇮🇹🍋🍚🌟
Vicenzo, My friend and I made this shrimp and lemon with fennel pasta last night and it was absolutely delicioso! Gratzi, Veronica y Kayla.💜🧜♀️♓️💜🎉❤
👍🍤😋 Grazie mille! Delighted you enjoyed the shrimp and lemon with fennel pasta! Keep cooking and buon appetito! 🇮🇹👨🍳🌟
I like thin pasta myself and I definitely would prefer butter over oil in this dish . I would use oil with onion and garlic ,but butter works better with lemon for me.
Great idea! Butter is also a great option but if the recipe requires oil, like aglio e olio, you have to use oil for that.
Buona pure questa pasta👍👋
si, niente male!
When you juice your lemons, use a non-electric juicer and use the pulp left in the juicer too and add it to the zest for the sauce.
I made it for two persons and did NOT share. 😂😂
Mi piaciono veramente i tuoi posts. Grazie tanto, sei molto divertente e ci spiega tutto. Muito obrigada! Hai video parlando in italiano? Per me sarebbe più facile da capire.
Ciao bella, grazie mille, sono contento che ti piacciano i miei video 🙏🏻
Vincenzo I completely agree with you ...what's the deal with putting so much garlic in everything I don't get it... I'm Italian also and I know that it is a myth that if you are Italian you lace everything with garlic this is so untrue. It is really a feature of Americanized Italian food. So yes I agree the dish does not require the garlic. And I especially love your addition of the mint. Brilliant❤....but hey still waiting to see your video on coffee with pecorino 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Very nice .
Thanks a lot
Where are you Vincenzo? It looks like a beautiful place.
I'm in Italy, in Pescara
Hey Vincenzo, I have made your lemon pasta and it was delicious! One comment I would make on Ina's recipe, I know in your recipe you added in Pecorino which is salty so I think the critique on extra salt might be misplaced since in your recipe you added extra saltiness with cheese but she chose just plain old table salt instead.
You’re wrong. Vincenzo didn’t add EXTRA saltiness with cheese. He added cheese that is salty by the act of its manufacture. You do not need to add salt directly to the lemon juice and butter as Ina did. That is completely wrong. That’s what Vincenzo is referencing, and he’s absolutely correct. This is a lemon sauce, not a salt sauce. Your interpretation of the salt in Pecorino Romano is inaccurate. You seem to know nothing about Pecorino.
Ciao Vincent, thanks for your comment, but it is not very correct. Salt should never be added directly to the sauce, unless you are preparing tomato sauce, in the case of lemon pasta just add more salt to the cooking water, the cheese does not have a lot to do with this thing
@@kadenduiffard2388 I think you're comment is a bit condescending since there has been numerous times where Vincenzo has avoided adding salt because he was using pecorino, like carbonara, and to say it doesn't impact the overall salinity of the dish would be mistaken. The addition of pecorino cheese enhances the overall flavor of the dish just as adding salt does due to the glutamates and overall high salt content in the cheese[1]. While the flavors [between salt and pecorino] are different, the reasoning behind adding either to a dish are similar; both pecorino and salt add additional body to the dish [2] and hence can be thought of as substitutes [3,4], while I would argue that pecorino is a better choice, due to the additional flavors it imposes, the culinary reason for adding salt to the sauce is still valid, which are to enhance the overall flavor and body/mouthfeel of the dish.

@@vincenzosplatejust curious, is there a reason why salt is not usually added to sauces except for tomatoes (and why does that exception exist)? I hazard to say it's because the salt is more evenly distributed in the pasta water and gives the pasta flavor is part of the reason.
Another thing to consider is that Ina used Parmesano Reggiano, which is almost as salty as Pecorino Romano. There is no reason to add salt to the sauce in this recipe except out of habit.
Some of us , unfortunately, are addicted to garlic it seems, because it put stupid amounts of garlic in everything
I am learning that a large amount of garlic is very important for some people especially americans. My american friends always use 5 cloves of garlic minimum for aything they do
As always, here are the links to the original videos:

thank you
No, he said more garlic he would have been sorry over! My question is every time I combine lemon with garlic the garlic turns green and sour
Personally I love parsley in my lemon pasta.
Hi Vincenzo. I have a random gnocchi question for u. Could you use gnocchi as something to remove salt in a dish that you went overboard with the salt. PS love you videos.
why waste some gnocchi for this? A potato would be enough
@@vincenzosplate Of course, why indeed. Just use a potato over the gnocchi. Your a wise sage. I’ve never tried lemon pasta. I like pasta and lemons. So it’s a must to do!
Sam lives in San Diego, California but originally from Canada! You guys should absolutely do a collaboration video!! 😅😂 PLEASE!!!!
That would be cool!
He missed out by not using that pasta water.
What’s this obsession with the pasta water?
So is it safer if we cook the sauce first then pasta? Cos I’m a beginner
I like garlic, but I usually don´t put it in pasta and not really like garlic in chili sauce. I prefer garlic to fish.
Thanks for sharing your preferences! It's always interesting to hear what people like and don't like. 🤔 Have you tried any of my recipes that don't use garlic or chili sauce? Maybe you'll find a new favorite! 😉
I believe Jamie Oliver taught Ina that recipe. LOL
I think so!
Lmao🤣 Jamie OLIVE oil
i put garlic in all my pasta cuz im insecure of no flavor
Thanks for sharing your approach to pasta, but in my opinion, garlic doesn't necessarily add flavor. Authentic Italian cooking is all about balancing flavors, and I'd be happy to show you some traditional recipes if you're interested. 😊🍝
Sam lives in San Diego California. it would be awesome to see you guys in a video together.
yeah but I live in Sydney 😬
He has been known to travel.
I prefer my pasta with a strong lemon flavor, so I would use two lemons. 😋
Great idea! That would taste amazing!
Wait! Thought you lived in Australia
My favorite is Vermicelli mmmmm
Vermicelli is a classic choice! 🍝 It's a versatile pasta that works well with various sauces. I'm thrilled to hear it's your favorite. Stay tuned for more delicious recipes featuring vermicelli on my channel. Happy cooking!
@@vincenzosplate thank you 😊
Americans love garlic.
I agree, I often get suggestions to use more garlic. But it's too overpowering and I want the subtle flavours of the dish to stand out more.
The reason he put garlic in it is because thats the way HE likes it. There are no laws when it comes to cooking for yourself, nor even in a restaurant. Otherwise, it wouldnt matter what restaurant you go to, if they all do the same things. Then theyd all taste the same !!!
Although taste may always be subjective, I still prefer to have my lemon pasta in a more milder taste, some people might find garlic and lemon too overpowering hence why it is not always recommended to add garlic into the dish.
Dont need garlic in pasta lemon
I like vincenzo when make italian food.❤😊😋😋
Truly appreciate it, we should always consider those who don't like the taste of garlic. It really is strong and it's not for everyone. Have you given this recipe a try?
Mix pasta with rice?
🙈🙈🙈
Sorry Vincenzo but I love lots of garlic in my food lol
noooooo
Americans think garlic = Italian food.
yeah 🤦🏻♂️
Because Italian immigrants put garlic in everything. Euro->US immigrants were economic immigrants, ie starving and penniless. Also consider the great depression impacts in the US. Garlic was cheap and added flavor. Adding garlic to things today makes those things taste like mom & gram's cooking. Idgaf about being faithful to any eurocrap. I do care about recreating my mom & gram's cooking.
No mint,awful
You like mint in your lemon pasta?
is lemon pasta good ?
Absolutely! Lemon pasta is a delightful dish that offers a refreshing and tangy flavor. 🍋🍝 It's definitely worth trying if you enjoy citrusy flavors in your pasta. Give it a go and let me know what you think!
