Yum!!!
Lo9ks like another seriously delightful recipe! Merry Christmas guys! Love your posts!
I had asked you a couple of years ago for your version of this wonderful dish. Thanks for posting this and it is just like what I make for one of the 7 fish dishes on Christmas Eve. Buona Natale!!
My mother would make the 7 fishes on Christmas Eve.
Wish I could find scungilli out here in Oregon. Love it
An Italian guy opened a pizza shop here in upstate NY and I told him one day about the conch I had in the bahamas. Well, not to be out done by the bahamians He made me a Scungilli fra diavlo Pizza. I still have fond memories of probably the best pizza I have ever had!
Had that dish at Mama’s In Long Island during the 1970s. Never forgot the flavor. You guys make me hungry.
I haven't had real Italian food in 30 years since all the elders passed
Oh, my! I haven't had this in 50 year! My mouth is watering.
I love the T shirt 😂🖖💪🤙
Unfortunately, scungilli has become so expensive. My pizza man told me it is partially because Asian people love conch meat and, as a result of the increased demand, availability has dropped, driving the price up. It's understandable, but too bad. It used to be on every menu.
Looks delicious, guys. Merry Christmas!
Thank you for keeping the Italian-American cooking tradition alive! Merry Christmas brothers
Looks great Merry Christmas
There is no such thing as too much black pepper.

Where is the glass of vino Rosso?.
Merry Christmas, guys! Enjoy your shows! I made the baked artichoke dish for Christmas Eve. Everyone loved it! Thanks! Have a fantastic Christmas!🎄
Wonderful recipe guys. I first had scungilli marinara as a teenager visiting my grandfather in Florida in the '70's. He took us to a non-descript restaurant that featured it on their menu. It was out of this world good! I live in the Midwest, in the Chicago area, and have made this dish several times. But the last time I purchased the scungilli from a well-known grocery store in Elmwood Park, IL, the large can like you guys show was up to $50. For a blue-collar guy like me, this is indeed a dish that's made only for special occasions now. Big thanks for showing it on YouTube.
Talk about olive oil, this Italian guy comes home and finds his wife rubbing olive oil on her breast, he asks what she's doing. She says that it's supposed to make your breasts bigger. He says, why don't you use toilet paper? Look what it did to your ass. Anyway, great video, we always had this on Christmas Eve along with six other fishes of course.
Have not had this in years!!!! And that T-shirt! Awesome
I used to eat this with the biscuits as a kid. Now, it's almost impossible to find a restaurant in Florida to serve scungili. Al you'll find are conch cutters and cracked conch which is just little pieces fried up. My next pasta meal is gonna be like this. Grazie and buon appetito.
If I ever used scungilli from a can my other would turn in her grave! Makes life simpler
I love scungilli marinara.
