@@GugaFoods Hey Guga, I have an intresting video idea: regularly dry age some steaks, then remove the pellicles and dry age them again in something that would make them better (double dry age).
@GugaFoods Mine too, along with carbonara and boar ragout! Had them in Rome, and they blew my mind. I loved to cook them with my dad (a chef). Thank you for replying, Guga! 🙏🏻 It would be fun to see you make some Scandinavian dishes! 😊 Best wishes from Denmark! 🇩🇰
Guga, you're one of the biggest reasons why I started cooking. I don't know how, but after watching your videos over the last year, I just hit the kitchen like a madman. Now I make my own mother jealous with some of my dishes. I don't even know how I started smoking so hard, but this channel definitely had a hand in it. Keep cranking them out!
As an Italian I can only say that you did an amazing job with this video. You nailed the cultural aspects behind the recipes and this is absolutely great in my opinion. Bravo!
Yet there was no credit given to the chinese, africans or greeks for inventing pasta. Just cover a car in cheese and say you invented the automobile white youre at it.
I actually surprise that there is no Aglio e Olio in this list, but all my respect to Guga for being such a wonderful cook! He travel not just for fun, but also learn the traditional way of cooking pasta
The Pasta being used by Guga is a Bronze Cut/Die Pasta. To more about it, I suggest you to watch Adam Ragusea's video on Teflon vs Bronze Cut Pasta. But to shorten it, it has a rougher texture when compared to regular pasta (Teflon Cut) which is very shiny and smooth. It doesn't carry more sauce than regular pasta, but the mouth feel is preferable to regular Teflon Cut pasta.
@@rolf6266 Like the little known Uncle Roger, ItsQCP, Albert Can Cook, and Chef Rush. Oh and they did meet this pizza guy named Vito that Guga knows too. ;)
@@samnabawy2731 japanese is bland af ( you only like it cause u are a weeb). So is korean except few of their food . Middle eastern is good but it aint all that . Greek is good , ill give u that .
Since no one has told the story yet, I can't let it go. Pasta Alfredo also has another name in the interior of Italy and especially older people also know this recipe as "Cuckold's Pasta". Legend has it that when a woman was cheating on her husband and arrived home shortly before his husband got home from work, she would make this pasta. Since it only contains butter and cheese, it could be made in a short time.
As an Italian cook I give to this video a 9 out of 10. Almost perfect, except the meat balls pasta that is not Italian. The Wagyu and truffle pasta is a very good idea and Italians would love it. A suggestion for the next level pasta from Northern Italy, very simple: boil fettuccine all'uovo (fresh fettuccine made with eggs yokes in the dough), mix the pasta in the pan with butter, put pasta in the dish and grate a generous amount of WHITE truffle on it. Nothing compares to this pasta ;)
Al Sud si usa fare la pasta con il sugo di polpette, soprattutto in inverno. Magari non le mangiamo direttamente con la pasta, ma come secondo piatto...
“Mac & cheese is still extremely popular with the younger audience” - sure, if by younger audience you mean people between the ages of two and ninety-two. 😄😄😄
Hi Guga.. Here's another episode idea for you.. Make 4 poutines, One Ground beef poutine with caramelized onions and brown sauce One italian poutine with the italian spagetti meat sauce or chili as the gravy (no spagetti of course) One poutine with white carbonara sauce, deep fried chicken tender chunks and bacon bits. One pulled pork or burnt ends or Wagyu poutine with a BBQ style poutine sauce All poutines should have cheese curds of course.. The white poutine can have shredded cheese for a change. I've had all those at 03:00am after a long night bar hopping.. Not a bad way to end a fun night out.
Yes, you can just have the pasta with truffles and it will be delicious and aromatic without the beef. Or if you do not have access to fresh truffles, get the cheese and use it on pasta.
@@beneinstine6830 Yes, that has just become one of those "i have infinite money so I waste it" things. I wuold love for someone to challenge him to see the difference between the cheapest cut of a fatty chuck roast and wagyu in this recipe. The italian ham with its specific flavour profile I understand, but his obsessions with wagyu is detrimental to my mental health.
@@beneinstine6830 wagyu actually makes sense in the dish given the idea is to use the fat as the flavor base and wagyu releases a lot of extremely delicious fat. it's stupidly lavish, but it's not wasteful of its ingredients.
You just blew my mind on how you make your Mac and cheese. Why have I been so stupid. Everyone I know puts the Mac back in the pot and then pours the ingredients in. You literally made it a sauce first and that will mix so much faster and easier. I’ve been taught the wrong way.
As an Italian I can say that you can really see when someone is able to cook. Si vede che hai la mano Guga, molto bravo, soprattutto per la cacio e pepe ❤💣💪
This is a great video. We travelled to Italy a few years ago and the simplicity of the ingredients in the dishes was always surprising (compared to North America). But the end result is always amazing. Thank you so much for sharing the proper way to do these dishes. One of your best episodes in my opinion (but love all the steak ones!)
@@macrimel The video is called 100 years of pasta... Not 100 years of Italian pasta. Be happy that the Italian pastas he did make were about as authentic as you can get here in the states.
Love the way you cooked the kraft mac and cheese made me smile. Ive done it the same way since i was a kid. My family and everyone in my life never makes the cheese sauce first then and the pasta. They just dump in the milk add the butter and pour the powder onto the pasta. Then mix. I finally found someone that agrees❤
Hey Guga? The Cleveland Italians use a mix of ground pork, veal, and beef. I even stuff my meatballs with Ricotta and basil and then wrap the meatball mix around it. My friend’s aunt will also throw braised pork ribs into the tomato sauce. Didn’t have that until I moved to Cleveland.. so good Guga! abruzzese style. Nice job on this?! Tudo bem
so you see, we have trillions of ancestors but only about 100 billion people have ever lived on earth, so everyone has a common ancestor, so i can say i am related to guga :D
Wahooooooo it’s the guga man and food history. And that’s awesome I just went grocery shopping and got some pasta and mac and cheese. I love these 100 year food videos.
Learned many things from this video. First, its 12 at night im hungry, im eating pizza, and this is too good of a video to be watching when your hungry. Second, i got more pasta recipes. And third ive been cooking kd wrong cause gugas looks a lot better. Thanks for making me 10x as hungry😂
The cool thing is that in Italy every region has his own two/three different version of pasta 's recipes. For example, in my city we invented the Pesto sauce, but we are famous as well for the nuts sauce and Tuccu (a meat sauce amazing with small ravioli). Guga, if you ever come back I will personally bring you in every single place in Italy to try all the dishes possible
Being an Italian from Roma this has to be my favorite Guga video! Djae Guga ❤🧡 I will try the truffle pasta as soon as I can find real truffles, but for me it'll be a regular stesk 😂
Guga amazing video as always, I’d love for you to cover the other side of the pasta colture, things like Tuscan wild boar pappardelle, tagliatelle alla bolognese and so on.
It would be interesting to pair all these pasta with a glass of Italian wine. Here's my suggestion: Cacio e Pepe - Gavi di Gavi (Piedmont) Spaghetti and Meatballs - Chianti Classico Riserva (Tuscany) Mac and Cheese - Verdicchio di Castelli di Jesi Classico (Marche) Fetuccine Alfredo - Prosecco Brut, DOCG, Cogneliano-Valdobbiadene (Veneto) Carbonara - Rosso di Montalcino (Tuscany) Pasta all'Assassina - Montepulciano d'Abruzzo (Abruzzo) Pasta alla Checca - Greco di Tufo (Campania) Penne alla Vodka - Valpolicella Ripasso (Veneto) Pasta all'Amatriciana - Primitivo di Manduria (Puglia) Pasta alla Gricia - Etna Rosso, Nerello Mascalese (Sicily) Wagyu and truffle pasta - Barolo, Nebbiolo (Piedmont) Cheers!
As an Italian I can say that I have never tried the last one. I don't like the Mac and Cheese as you prepared it. For the rest I would say excellent preparation. Really well done. I would still add at least 3 pastas plus a special one. Genoese pesto pasta, an authentic explosion of Mediterranean flavours. Pasta with meat sauce but not as you mean it, the one we prepare is made with sautéed carrot, onion, celery, minced meat , tomato and parmesan or pecorino at the end. (Look for pasta al ragù in some italian site) Then I would say spaghetti with clams. Final special mention spaghetti with ASTICE sauce which is a particular variety of lobster which is very expensive here in Italy
Great Video. Pasta Is one of the simplest but overlooked dishes that can bring flavors and happiness to everyone. Guga you should try 100 years of Rice for the starch Counter Part...
I made a mac-n-cheese version this Friday: cook macaroni pasta in 2/3 creme and 1/3 milk, add turmeric for colour and smoked paprika for taste. I made a big no-no and mixed shrimp and freshly grated parmesan into the dish. But I don't care becuase it was made by me, for me, and I found it delicious.
I am Italian and can only dream of making a cacio e pepe as perfect as yours 😂 You did all the recipes justice, bravo! Also your truffle wagyu pasta looks unreal, I’d love to try it one day 👏🏼
Guga! I was eating the worst take out food 7 days a week for nearly 2 years, got in a rut living on my own,, then I found your channel, I’m cooking amazing food every day, simply cause I wanted to join in and feel part of what you and your absolutely awesome crew are doing. Thank you guys so much, I was down all the time, and I was always going to be as I was eating aweful food, now I eat so well every day, I actually cook again. That truly is thanks to you guys 🙏❤️
Haven't been watching or cooking in some time. Going through some life stuff. You look absolutely fantastic though! I see you are work hard on yourself. Getting myself back now. Love your channel
Howdy Guga, curious as to what your comfort food is? Mine is a dish my mom taught me called Mac&Ts. Macaroni and tomatoes. 1 can diced tomatoes 2 cans crushed tomatoes a whole stick of butter a little lemon juice leave that to heat up on medium heat for a bit and mix. Then you add alot of american white cheese, like 10-20 slices. Boil elbow macaroni and add it to the sauce after stirring when the cheese looks melted. I add a decent amount of finely ground pepper to mine. It's like that scene in ratatouille everytime i have it.
11:31 Heat completely off, or the emulsion can't happen! Oh and breaking spaghetti bc they don't fit the pot is akin to blending a burger bc drinking it is easier. good idea putting a little parmesan in the cold pasta, gotta try it. But PLEASE add some minced garlic and greek olives!
Thats one of the most perfect Cacio e Pepes I've ever seen! Bravo! 🤌🏼
Thanks, It’s my favorite pasta, #1 for me.
Watch Vincenzo's plate. Another great one!
@@GugaFoods Hey Guga, I have an intresting video idea: regularly dry age some steaks, then remove the pellicles and dry age them again in something that would make them better (double dry age).

on the guanciale, check your local butcher shop and look for "hog jowl bacon" if you want extra flavor, it is basically smoked guanciale.
Haven't been watching or cooking in some time. Going through some life stuff. You look absolutely fantastic though! I see you are work hard on yourself. Getting myself back now. Love your channel
Man That's the most perfect Cacio e Pepe i ever seen! Complimenti, Bravo!
Howdy Guga, curious as to what your comfort food is?
Mine is a dish my mom taught me called Mac&Ts. Macaroni and tomatoes.
1 can diced tomatoes 2 cans crushed tomatoes a whole stick of butter a little lemon juice leave that to heat up on medium heat for a bit and mix. Then you add alot of american white cheese, like 10-20 slices. Boil elbow macaroni and add it to the sauce after stirring when the cheese looks melted. I add a decent amount of finely ground pepper to mine. It's like that scene in ratatouille everytime i have it.
Pasta all looks incredible!
Also, new drinking game - Drink every time he says, "Go ahead"....... 😂
Finally, someone cooks a meatball without any eggs. Good job 👍

Heat completely off, or the emulsion can't happen!
Oh and breaking spaghetti bc they don't fit the pot is akin to blending a burger bc drinking it is easier.
good idea putting a little parmesan in the cold pasta, gotta try it. But PLEASE add some minced garlic and greek olives!
Been waiting for another one of these videos!
