I almost skipped watching this video thinking "I don't have a pasta maker, I can't make pasta," yet here I am, literally eating my last bite of pasta aglio e oilio that I made by hand. Easily one of the best things I've made. Thank you, Babish! I love this series, and as a new cook, I am learning a TON from it
When I used 2 eggs for the aglio e oilio (which Babish says is lighter and less filling than the cacio e pepe), I comfortably ate everything myself in one sitting, but a quick Google search shows recipes that have 2 eggs serving multiple people (maybe I was hungry and excited). If I were serving multiple people, I'd probably make multiple batches of 2-3 eggs worth of pasta, portioning out my noodles until I felt I had enough. And if this is by hand, it will take some time, so I'd do it ahead of time and freeze my pasta (a Google search says that's the best way to store fresh pasta). Hope that helps
Andy Aria Step One: Mix the Egg and flour Step Two: knead a bit Step Three: Climb a step ladder Step Four: go all “Macho Man” and elbow drop your dough-OHHHH YYEEAAAAHHHHHH
i could imagine... *watching netflix in living room *plop plop bunk bunk from kitchen "ELBOW DROP!!!" *PUNK. rattle of silverware "FFFFFFFUAAAA I MISSED THE DOH" id prob miss the dough too honestly xD
"You can probably make this with things you have in your fridge." Brah. I have coffee cream, milk, white bread, butter and leftover chicken fingers. Time to get fancy! 🎩💲
Roll bread with rolling pin and cut into strips Cook in pan with butter, milk, and chopped up chicken, seasoned to taste Bam, breadnoodles in a chicken cream sauce
Blend the coffee cream, milk, and melted butter in a pan. Don't let it get too hot - you don't want to scald the milk or creamer. Add spices like black pepper, some salt, even some chili powder. Toss in the leftover chicken fingers and toss to coat. Serves 1 because you'll never want to share it. Put it on white bread if you prefer the sandwich method. XD Andrew has taught us well.
@@angrygroceries1 The saline content affects the boiling point of water to the degree that it technically takes longer to achieve boiling temperature, but we're talking seconds. It's not really any appreciable difference.
THIS is why you are a gold level TH-cam channel. You genuinely teach people to cook, and this new playlist of the basics is why you are truly the most amazing channels around. Thank you so much, you have taught me so many useful techniques to improve my cooking. thank you

Thank you Andrew for this series you really have inspired all of us to get daring in the kitchen and bring wonder food to the plate and our tummies
bobrobmarc .-. I'm English, so in my accent, the word "pasta" sounds just like "past her" (short "a" and silent "h"). So the joke is a play on words of driving a car made of lasagne past the wife :)
The one and only time I tried to make fresh pasta, shortly before I dropped out of culinary school, I did it so wrong that chef didn't know how I managed to do it that wrong. I made pasta aglio e olio from scratch for my family today and I'm so freaking proud of myself. Cooking is good for the soul
It's not. But with practice it becomes easy. but you have to learn to feel for the right texture. And the easiest way is to accept the standard recipe of 100g of flour, 1 whole egg, pinch of salt an 1 tsp of olive oil. Beat the egg and oil together, then mix with the flour and salt in a food processor or by hand, your choice. Then, knead it adding more flour it it's too wet until you it's silken smooth and elastic (press it with a finger, it it takes its time springing back and the finger hole doesn't disappear, it's good).
hey, i'm 21 and alone with my brother wile my parents are on vacation. I'm having a hard time lately (i've spend 3 months in psychiatric hospital due to sucidal thoughts) anyway i spend most of my days on youtube watching cooking videos (a coping mecanisme like any other) and today i decided to try your "pasta al olio" because it felt easy to make and i have a eating desorder. It was indeed easy to make and i sat in front of my computer to eat wile watching some more cooking videos, but i didn't watched an other video, because those pasta where good, i just sat at my desk saying to myself "wow those really are good" (in french) then i just started thinking about me cooking this dish for my gf (how is going through a really hard time to, i met her in the hospital) or for my childrens (if i live long enough to have childrens) and I litteraly started crying eating those pasta. Today was a really bad day for me, but you succeded to give me a tiny bit of will to live to cook those pasta to the people that i love. I'm not sure that, as a cooking youtuber, you get told this a lot but your video made me cry xD Thank you ps: sorry for bad english
Binging with Babish, Basics with Babish. Can we please get a Banter With Babish, A Q&A series that answers are random and serious quesetions. Please man, it even fits the branding!
Damn babish, this has been the only cooking video I have ever watched that actually inspired me to cook, I made some delicious pasta, and while it wasn’t perfect, I showed me what to improve on
.....or is it? Science has shown us that while dinosaurs went extinct 65 million years ago, the sense of smell is the sense most closely associated... with... memory. *music* ... or is it? Pasta was invented thousands of years ago, but sound waves travel faster through water... than... through... air. And as always, thanks for watching.
We made our first ever pasta tonight using your half and half recipe and for the first time in 5 years, we had no leftovers. We are super proud of ourselves and hope others try this out without fail, just like we did. Note: we thought our mixture was too dry. It wasn't. Thanks, Babish! ❤
Are you meant to put chilli flakes in the pasta aglio e olio? You did in the chef video but not this one, and I don't want to end up driving a four wheeled car...
It's actually a different recipe here in italy, pasta aglio plio e peperoncino, only featuring garlic sauted in oil, add the pasta in the oil and then the chili flakes
I made both pasta dishes (aglio e olio for me, cacio e pepe for the lady) and holy shit were they amazing. I’d show you a picture on social media but I couldn’t pause long enough to take a picture. Thanks for making dope recipes and practices (like pasta making) seem easy.
In the machine, create a loop once fed through pinching the ends together. No more re-feeding it back in again and again. Tip 2: when feeding through the cutter... place your hand under the pasta as it comes out. Will come out perfectly even and not fall into a messy pile. Great if hanging to dry too
This video instantaneously made you my new favorite cook on the web. You’ve got complete understanding and respect for each dish you cook, and a smidge of humour to spice things up. But what really drives my loins through a loop is how you make mistakes and are earnest about them, and about your slight deviations from traditional recipes. I learned more from this video than any other. Looks like I’m going on my first great Babish Binge. Cheers!
So glad I found this video! I was always so hung up on exact measurements that my pasta dough was never quite right. now I have no stress and just make my flour well, crack some eggs, and just enjoy the process. Thanks a bunch!
Goddamn it as soon as I watched this video I went and started making pasta to only find out half way through I didn’t have a rolling pin. Ran straight to Wilkos and got one, and then ate the best pasta of my life.
A great trick when making Pasta Aglio E olio (garlic pasta) is to use a truffle slicer for your garlic. It gets the garlic super thin. I have only ever used my truffle slicer once on truffles, but I use it to slice garlic all the time.
"none of this throwing it against the wall nonsense" lol who does that? *later that night when I'm making pasta* hey mom can you check to see if the pasta is nearly done? "sure" *throws it against the wall* wait what are you doing? "this is how you check. If it sticks to the wall it's done." you can just... eat a piece...
I love how you're really getting into it. The jokes, alongside with easy to understand and inspiring techniques are what make this show worth waiting for every week. Giving us exactly enough information to get started, but leaving the rest in our hands; this is exactly why I became a patreon! Thank you, babish!
i'm not really a pasta guy, i've never really loved pasta before. But I Made the Pasta Aglio e olio at 3 A.M. and woke my dad up but i enjoyed pasta for the first time
Always wanted to make pasta from scratch, but I assumed it was a complicated process. Gave it a go tonight and it came out really well. I need to get it a bit thinner next time, but really happy for my first go. Thanks so much for the recipe!
I really like babish because english is my second language and I sometimes don't understand people without subtitles but he speaks very clear so I never need subtitles
I got a pasta maker for Christmas and me and my mom tried to make pasta for chicken noodle soup and we failed like four times then I made babish’s recipe now my dough is resting and it worked amazingly
Kinda cool to see this. Usually when you make something from scratch you save allot of money. Pizza is a great example. Scratch made pizza is 1/5 to 1/20th the cost of the alternatives. But this looks like one of those instances where it is not the case. Pasta is available for around a dollar a pound, dried. I am interested in the taste of freash pasta.
I love that you left your pasta making outtake in the final cut, It gives me a little bit more enthusiasm to try it on my own. And the pro on TH-cam is having trouble making his pasta, I guess when I try to make my pasta and fail, it won't be such a big deal!
Usually 2-5 times per year my family (10-15 people or more depending on who shows up) all get together for family dinner. We make Italian food and once every year, we take all the tomatoes, basil, oregano, garlic, and whatever else we grow in the garden and make a 100% homemade sauce. We usually don’t make the pasta we just buy premade pasta. This year I think I’ll make the pasta to go along with my sauce all thanks to you
Seen the video a couple of times, and today I finally decided to try--Super simple and easy. Great start for a first time pasta maker. Didn't have cheese, so I decided to try the pasta aglio e olio, and it's some pretty good pasta. Thanks for the video!
I live on the road due to work, and have a hard time cooking, but I just did this. I used a smaller amount of a funky triple cream brie in the sauce, and then sauteed some mushrooms in the sauce that was left in the pan after I plated the pasta. So good! Home cooked meals really bring an important quality to life in a hotel.
Hello, I just used some of the things I learned in this video to make my first real meal. It was AMAZING, I truly am starting to love cooking and can't wait to learn more! 😀
My first and so far only attempt at Pasta Aglio e Olio ended up failing because I had the oil too hot and the garlic all but burnt. Really underestimated how quickly it cooks. Plus if the oil is too hot and you drop a bunch of wet pasta and water in there, it's going to fucking go crazy and you'll not enjoy all of the popping oil on your body. Granted I was still getting used to how to balance my new "powerburner" stovetop. Also I didn't have a Scarlett Johansson, but I also didn't tell my fiance that was part of the recipe...
Babish doesn't roast the garlic enough for my taste. If you just toast the garlic enough until it's golden brown, but not burnt, and then take off the heat and add the red pepper flakes and add the paste like 2 min later, I find it comes out about perfect.
I don't add the lemon unlike Babish, and I still think it's the best. And Babish, unlike the popular recipes, adds a lemon, but doesn't add the pepper flakes or the parmesan. Not that I add the Parmesan either, but the pepper flakes are fantastic. My point being that you can make little variations and it should still turn out well.
I had the exact same thing happen to me with the garlic! Guess it's better to take the oil off heat sooner. I keep overdoing or underdoing things in cooking, like mixing, and it always messes something up.
Pasta Aglio E Olio is my favorite. Maybe I'm just a simple girl with simple needs, but I think it's a dish that is INCREDIBLY underappreciated and deserving of more attention. So thank you.
Hi Andrew. My name is Riccardo and I’m a guy from Rome, Italy. Since I always made fresh pasta with my grandmother, she told me that you need a medium-large sized egg for every 100 gr of flour. I wanted to let you know just in case you wanted to try it the “traditional” way. Love your videos and keep it up!
When I was little I was lucky enough to eat some spaghetti with freshly made pasta; by a family friends great grandmother, who was as Italian as it comes. I was probably about 4, so my memories are extremely vague. That being said, I remember clear as day how amazing those noodles were and I honestly don't think I've ever had anything as good since
Just made and ate the pasta aglio e olio, with ALL of the ingredients and it was absolutely incredible. I added some mushrooms for some added flavor and protein and I glazed the pan with sake. WOW 🤩
I’m only 15 so this is my first time making pasta but I made the fettuccine because I didn’t have a pasta machine and it was great! I used your aglio e olio recipe and my whole family loved it. Thanks!!
My mom's side of the family traces back to Italy a long time ago so my mom likes to boast about her spaghetti-making skills, and hearing you break down all of her methods (i.e. using tap water on the noodles and the wall-throwing) is hilarious lmaooo
It's 1:30 am local time I've been on quarentine for a month now and the insomnia is hitting me hard so I'm looking at a two year old pasta making video and Vibing to Xxv. Thank you Andrew for this moment.
yasssssss....He cooks with so much sensuality. And it's not as though that's the intent. These videos are such a thirst quencher. I want a spouse just like this one day. JUST.LIKE.THIS!
Reasons I watch this: 1: The voice 2: THe music 3: The colors 4: The food (Note: I dont cook, I am 14, just want to learn the basics because I love cooking)
I’m sleep deprived and just spent the rest of my Amazon balance on a pasta maker. When it comes tomorrow I’ll give an update on how I did It took multiple hours and I was tired as hell by the end but they were great It’s Friday night, 1/17/2020. I made more pasta dough and ya Boi is making hand cut fettuccine. Updates will be made
IDoStuff 3.7 fucktons or work but it was awesome. It gave me an instant ramen noodle vibe, which I wasn’t a fan of but I made fresh tomato sauce and it made me nut four times at once when I took a bite.
I tried making homemade pasta for my bf on our first Valentine's day together and I did it by hand. Didn't come out very well lol. I cant wait to try this!!
"Throw it at the wall, if it sticks its done" been in my family since my 2 times great grandma told her daugher, then she told my grandma and mine told my mom and my mom told me
You saved my life dude. My GCSE Food Practical assessment was today and I COMPLETELY forgot how to make pasta. I watched this before I left for school and I made an awesome dish of tagliatelle arrabbiata, very impressed
I disagree with the aglio e olio thing of needing lemon and Parsley where I'm from in italy in the village when they make this dish they only use olive oil, garlic, and either chili oil or chili flakes or both and it still taste amazing. But the added lemon amd Parsley does look like a interesting touch to the dish that I may try in the future
This is Babish garlic and oil, not at all traditional alio e olio. But then again, I've seen an Italian chef making an emulsion of blanched garlic, oil, and some pasta cooking water and then making his aglio e olio with that. Haven't tried it yet, but intend to.
Parsley and at least a trace of red pepper are fundamental to the dish. The heat from the red pepper does what he is using the lemon juice to do here. I'd never heard of lemon in aglia olio until a week ago. I mean I'm sure it's very tasty but it is new to me.
HELPFUL TIP if you use store bought pasta you may need to add a little bit of cornstarch to your water before adding it to the oil for aglio e olio. kenji notes (in i believe the cacio e pepe video) that depending on the type of die used to extrude the pasta, you may not have the outer layer of starch on your pasta. as i’m watching this video i’m literally eating aglio e olio i made. used cornstarch to supplement for starch. absolutely amazing dish.

Alex Sher yah I thought I heard that anecdote incorrectly too. Haha! Have I been driving my 4 wheeled car wrong all this time?
Five wheels is much better: 4 on the road, and one for steering.
Kenneth McFarlane 6 if you've got a spare in the back!
ISEGaming I actually have six... Two spares on the roof
Goddamn it as soon as I watched this video I went and started making pasta to only find out half way through I didn’t have a rolling pin. Ran straight to Wilkos and got one, and then ate the best pasta of my life.
“I hope it was leg day at the gym”
Bold of you to assume I go to the gym
A great trick when making Pasta Aglio E olio (garlic pasta) is to use a truffle slicer for your garlic. It gets the garlic super thin. I have only ever used my truffle slicer once on truffles, but I use it to slice garlic all the time.
"none of this throwing it against the wall nonsense"
lol who does that?
*later that night when I'm making pasta*
hey mom can you check to see if the pasta is nearly done?
"sure" *throws it against the wall*
wait what are you doing?
"this is how you check. If it sticks to the wall it's done."
you can just... eat a piece...
Sparkle Pawz your mom is a... monster😂
Can you imagine people with kitchens where there are just random dribbles of pasta water on every wall?
Ew undercooked pasta
@@thepinkestpigglet7529 actually if it sticks to the wall it's overcooked
I am an italian and I am impressed on how well you interpretated our main recipe.
I love how you're really getting into it. The jokes, alongside with easy to understand and inspiring techniques are what make this show worth waiting for every week. Giving us exactly enough information to get started, but leaving the rest in our hands; this is exactly why I became a patreon! Thank you, babish!
i'm not really a pasta guy, i've never really loved pasta before. But I Made the Pasta Aglio e olio at 3 A.M. and woke my dad up but i enjoyed pasta for the first time
never in my life have i enjoyed a cooking video on youtube more than this one. I'm actually excited to try this out.
Always wanted to make pasta from scratch, but I assumed it was a complicated process. Gave it a go tonight and it came out really well. I need to get it a bit thinner next time, but really happy for my first go. Thanks so much for the recipe!
3:39 is nobody gonna talk about how beautiful that cross section is??
I really like babish because english is my second language and I sometimes don't understand people without subtitles but he speaks very clear so I never need subtitles
I got a pasta maker for Christmas and me and my mom tried to make pasta for chicken noodle soup and we failed like four times then I made babish’s recipe now my dough is resting and it worked amazingly
Kinda cool to see this. Usually when you make something from scratch you save allot of money. Pizza is a great example. Scratch made pizza is 1/5 to 1/20th the cost of the alternatives. But this looks like one of those instances where it is not the case. Pasta is available for around a dollar a pound, dried. I am interested in the taste of freash pasta.
I love that you left your pasta making outtake in the final cut, It gives me a little bit more enthusiasm to try it on my own. And the pro on TH-cam is having trouble making his pasta, I guess when I try to make my pasta and fail, it won't be such a big deal!
Made this the day after I saw the video for me and my lil brother, it was really fun and rewarding, great work as always!
I'm here because he still hasn't uploaded a new episode and I need my Basics with Babish.
Usually 2-5 times per year my family (10-15 people or more depending on who shows up) all get together for family dinner. We make Italian food and once every year, we take all the tomatoes, basil, oregano, garlic, and whatever else we grow in the garden and make a 100% homemade sauce. We usually don’t make the pasta we just buy premade pasta. This year I think I’ll make the pasta to go along with my sauce all thanks to you
~Mid-dog flouring~ “oh, that was a joke?”
Goldfish's dead but at least I got some delicious pasta
@@PedroKing19 fry up the goldfish too while ur at it, already nice and floured
Seen the video a couple of times, and today I finally decided to try--Super simple and easy. Great start for a first time pasta maker. Didn't have cheese, so I decided to try the pasta aglio e olio, and it's some pretty good pasta. Thanks for the video!
I live on the road due to work, and have a hard time cooking, but I just did this. I used a smaller amount of a funky triple cream brie in the sauce, and then sauteed some mushrooms in the sauce that was left in the pan after I plated the pasta. So good!
Home cooked meals really bring an important quality to life in a hotel.
Hello, I just used some of the things I learned in this video to make my first real meal. It was AMAZING, I truly am starting to love cooking and can't wait to learn more! 😀
My first and so far only attempt at Pasta Aglio e Olio ended up failing because I had the oil too hot and the garlic all but burnt. Really underestimated how quickly it cooks. Plus if the oil is too hot and you drop a bunch of wet pasta and water in there, it's going to fucking go crazy and you'll not enjoy all of the popping oil on your body. Granted I was still getting used to how to balance my new "powerburner" stovetop. Also I didn't have a Scarlett Johansson, but I also didn't tell my fiance that was part of the recipe...
Babish doesn't roast the garlic enough for my taste. If you just toast the garlic enough until it's golden brown, but not burnt, and then take off the heat and add the red pepper flakes and add the paste like 2 min later, I find it comes out about perfect.
I don't add the lemon unlike Babish, and I still think it's the best.
And Babish, unlike the popular recipes, adds a lemon, but doesn't add the pepper flakes or the parmesan. Not that I add the Parmesan either, but the pepper flakes are fantastic.
My point being that you can make little variations and it should still turn out well.
Yes I forgot about adding the parmesan if I'm feeling frisky. I think the lemon is a must, but like you said, it's all to personal taste.
I had the exact same thing happen to me with the garlic! Guess it's better to take the oil off heat sooner. I keep overdoing or underdoing things in cooking, like mixing, and it always messes something up.
Watch food wishes Chef John makes better Pasta Aglio that is more italian even less ingredients and just better.
It's been years since I first saw this and I finally came back and made pasta! It was so much easier than I thought it'd be!
I got a pasta machine and wanted to make pasta so this was extremely helpful. It tasted great btw
Pasta Aglio olio e peperoncino....
Ingredients :
Garlic
Oil
Fresh chillies
Salt.
xD yhea and pasta bro. Normally spaghetti but free choice there :)
Dude I'm 15 and have been learning to cook I love your channel
I wish I had a Scarlett Johansson at the ready
I made the second pasta sauce and it's really good. Thank you.
Pasta Aglio E Olio is my favorite. Maybe I'm just a simple girl with simple needs, but I think it's a dish that is INCREDIBLY underappreciated and deserving of more attention. So thank you.
the only thing i have in my fridge is beer and hot sauce
Time to make Memphis Yuengling.
Yuengling not required.
You’re halfway there already!
I can work with that
More Pepe is always good

Hi Andrew. My name is Riccardo and I’m a guy from Rome, Italy. Since I always made fresh pasta with my grandmother, she told me that you need a medium-large sized egg for every 100 gr of flour. I wanted to let you know just in case you wanted to try it the “traditional” way. Love your videos and keep it up!
When I was little I was lucky enough to eat some spaghetti with freshly made pasta; by a family friends great grandmother, who was as Italian as it comes. I was probably about 4, so my memories are extremely vague. That being said, I remember clear as day how amazing those noodles were and I honestly don't think I've ever had anything as good since
*NO PASTA*
*JUST RED SAUCE*
RAW SAUCE
RAW SUS
Justin Young I'm convinced you're actually multiple people
no stop
Monika, STOP
Just made and ate the pasta aglio e olio, with ALL of the ingredients and it was absolutely incredible. I added some mushrooms for some added flavor and protein and I glazed the pan with sake. WOW 🤩
3:10 *Babish is using his Super Powers*
MY FAVOURITE TH-camR AND FAVOURITE FOOD COMBINED, HOLY SHIT IS THIS HEAVEN
Thanks, Babby. I tried it out and it worked out well even with just a rolling pin and elbow grease.
I EAT SPAGHETTI TO FORGETTI MY REGRETTI

Really enjoying the basics series!
Keep it up
I’m only 15 so this is my first time making pasta but I made the fettuccine because I didn’t have a pasta machine and it was great! I used your aglio e olio recipe and my whole family loved it. Thanks!!
My mom's side of the family traces back to Italy a long time ago so my mom likes to boast about her spaghetti-making skills, and hearing you break down all of her methods (i.e. using tap water on the noodles and the wall-throwing) is hilarious lmaooo
Pastics with babish
Get out
It's 1:30 am local time I've been on quarentine for a month now and the insomnia is hitting me hard so I'm looking at a two year old pasta making video and Vibing to Xxv. Thank you Andrew for this moment.
Nice bro send me some of the leftovers lol
Basics with Babish? More like Basics with DADish! 😍
yasssssss....He cooks with so much sensuality. And it's not as though that's the intent. These videos are such a thirst quencher. I want a spouse just like this one day. JUST.LIKE.THIS!
That was cringy
Reasons I watch this:
1: The voice
2: THe music
3: The colors
4: The food
(Note: I dont cook, I am 14, just want to learn the basics because I love cooking)
VerSTANdig How do you know you love cooking if you never done it?
I'm early, shit, what do I say?
...Fond.
Yes, nailed it.
HectorLigoni And the new comment meme was born
I’m sleep deprived and just spent the rest of my Amazon balance on a pasta maker. When it comes tomorrow I’ll give an update on how I did
It took multiple hours and I was tired as hell by the end but they were great
It’s Friday night, 1/17/2020. I made more pasta dough and ya Boi is making hand cut fettuccine. Updates will be made
WalnutTime how was it?
IDoStuff 3.7 fucktons or work but it was awesome. It gave me an instant ramen noodle vibe, which I wasn’t a fan of but I made fresh tomato sauce and it made me nut four times at once when I took a bite.
made fresh pasta tonight for the first time for my mom's 60th birthday, and it turned out great!!! thanks babish
Why wasn't there a cross section?
hah
"-until it cant be forked no more" 😂
I tried making homemade pasta for my bf on our first Valentine's day together and I did it by hand. Didn't come out very well lol. I cant wait to try this!!
Thanks for making this video! Learned something new today.
Infinite Athletics dude I see you everywhere
"Throw it at the wall, if it sticks its done" been in my family since my 2 times great grandma told her daugher, then she told my grandma and mine told my mom and my mom told me
I’m 17 and love cooking easy yet delicious meals and this was so good. I made it for my whole family and they loved it
3:28 I floured my goldfish, he died... PASTA WAS GREAT THOUGH😃
R.I.P
What was that black long thing at 9:05 and where can i get that? Sounds wrong :D
Look up garlic peeler. Should be available on amazon
It's a Silicone Garlic Peeler. (Amazon)
bed bath and beyond has a ton of different styles.
You racist fucker :3
Okey thanks :D
You saved my life dude. My GCSE Food Practical assessment was today and I COMPLETELY forgot how to make pasta. I watched this before I left for school and I made an awesome dish of tagliatelle arrabbiata, very impressed
I disagree with the aglio e olio thing of needing lemon and Parsley where I'm from in italy in the village when they make this dish they only use olive oil, garlic, and either chili oil or chili flakes or both and it still taste amazing. But the added lemon amd Parsley does look like a interesting touch to the dish that I may try in the future
This is Babish garlic and oil, not at all traditional alio e olio. But then again, I've seen an Italian chef making an emulsion of blanched garlic, oil, and some pasta cooking water and then making his aglio e olio with that. Haven't tried it yet, but intend to.
The parsley is a staple. The lemon is not. I add lemon zest to mine rather than juice. It's subtler.
Parsley and at least a trace of red pepper are fundamental to the dish. The heat from the red pepper does what he is using the lemon juice to do here. I'd never heard of lemon in aglia olio until a week ago. I mean I'm sure it's very tasty but it is new to me.
Thank you for deciding to keep making the show.
HELPFUL TIP if you use store bought pasta you may need to add a little bit of cornstarch to your water before adding it to the oil for aglio e olio. kenji notes (in i believe the cacio e pepe video) that depending on the type of die used to extrude the pasta, you may not have the outer layer of starch on your pasta. as i’m watching this video i’m literally eating aglio e olio i made. used cornstarch to supplement for starch. absolutely amazing dish.
You forgot red pepper flakes in the pasta aglio e olio
D'accordo, il primo non è ancora finito senza il peperoncino
