Just when you think it’s done…..another ladle of pasta water!
They added garlic, that means you lied about 3 ingredients. I'm reporting you to the internet.
Thank you! I will try this recipe ❤❤
The aroma comes right through the screen!
I just can’t with all the pasta water
What are those pasta tongs called? I see them in a lot of videos used for plating pasta
I'm sure it tastes delicious. I would be interested to know how he prepares the dish when his restaurant is busy and he doesn't have time to spend so much time on one (easy) order. With four individual orders in a row, there would be no more room on his stove because of all the pans. Just for the record.
One dinky clove of garlic. GTFO
And garlic
What a perfect dish!
Grande denis
Complimenti veramente non ne sbagli una, ti darei subito la nazionalità italiana!
I see 4 ingredients, actually 5 with pasta.
So simple and soooo good! Thanks a lot!
This looks awesome! Would love to hear some explanation though. Not much, just when to add the pasta to the pan an how you know that you added enough pasta water (so much!)
I think if there’s any difficulty in this pasta is getting the pasta where it’s half cooked in the boil and then finishing it off in the pan where’s it’s perfectly al dente.
Magnifico !!!
Salted or unsalted butter?
I love linguine with garlic and olive oil, this is also a favourite. I wouldn't cook the anchovies though, just chuck in in the end.
This is what you make for people who don’t like anchovies.
This guy Denis can’t count, there are 9 ingredients. Pasta, anchovy, lemon, butter, garlic, salt, pepper, pasta water, and love.
This fella builds his sauce from the pasta liquor, good quality, simple ingredients.
Bravo maestro!
For me, 1.5 anchovy is enough for single portion of pasta with 1% salinity for pasta water. Wouldn't this be too salty?
Umami is a madeup bs flavour. No such thing called umami. Just call it savory, end of story.
Italy grows / makes ingredients for flavor, the US does it for shelf life, SAD !!!
Ah yes, I’d like the pasta water sauce for $25 please. Jk, I bet it’s super delish.
A classical. Easy to make , really great dish, you can add bits of grilled squid, or capers to this. I've got a version with dry white wine also. Brings me back to my uni days😊
Can't wait to try this, new to me.
I would be so tempted to ruin it and add half a glass of dry white wine. And some chopped parsley at the end. But only after trying the OG here first.
Guessing they would change it a step too far, but someone's gotta try eh. Natural additions. Capers, olives, tuna, olive oil. Crushed tomatoes even. Pecorino. And now the dish is utterly lost ..
Can anyone link me a similar aluminium pan to the one he’s using ?
Old school Kenji vibes. Ty for this style!!
Delicious
So easy and delish
Anchovy, must be too fishy.
Spotlight �firsts� from live events to drive urgency.
Tell me man, 4 or 5 minutes in the boil water and them finished in the frying pan?
What camera do you use?
How do you film for above like This? Does anybodyknow? Please help me out Tanx guys!
When you have a table of 5 or 6 diners and each one orders a different dish, what do you do? Do you give them €20 for the trouble and tell them to go eat somewhere else?
