    The number of Italians who have no idea Massimo's entire career involves flouting traditional Italian cooking is way too high. Osteria Francescana was the redheaded stepchild of Italian cuisine for years and on the verge of bankruptcy before people actually tried it.
    He's number one because he does his own thing at an incredibly high standard. And also because the mad lad made a dish out of a dropped tart.

    Well, I guess he never specified that he would be making a classic pesto Genovese, so there's no reason to fault his recipe without even trying it. I recall reading a piece about pesto in which this old school Italian chef in Genoa said, "pesto is the way you make pesto". Basically, he didn't care about purism. Before the automobile and produce deliveries, pesto was made with what you had, and that wasn't always basil, pine nuts, and parmigiano-reggiano.

      @dittagecoeco2738 5 ปีที่แล้ว +19

      Hello i am writing from Genova. I am sure that the old chef meant that every family here has a different way to make pesto. But the difference stands in details (for example how much garlic, as Massimo points out), not in freedom of choice of the ingredients. Pesto without specification Is not a recipe but kind of a method. Recipes are like Pesto Genovese, Pesto Siciliano (totally different ingredients). Or your special kind of recipe for a new pesto, if you have enough competence about relationship between ingredients in classic pestos recipes.

    • @dittagecoeco2738
      @dittagecoeco2738 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I have got to add a thing, because the wise Genovese chef had deepness in via saying. 'the way you make pesto' to me means a lot in the sense of the fun and the love and the stimulation (cannot translate profumo inebriante Sorry) not to mention the memories that one enjoys in making It. Those feelings go a long way in making pesto, especially when you do 'old way' striking a wooden stick on ingredients on a marble Mortar Cup. Etc .

    For not Italian people: Forget about the salty Italians here, they're just ignorants and misunderstanding completely the point of the recipe. Also, there is no "traditional" pesto, in Italy we have all kinds of pesto and the only things that they have in common are some steps of the preparation and the texture. You could literally do pesto with almost every vegetable you can imagine. This is a good pesto and a very good way of using ingredients that would've gotten wasted. (Sorry if I made some grammar mistake)
    Per gli italiani: Mi spiegate quando ha detto che avrebbe fatto un pesto alla genovese? Se usi il basilico non stai necessariamente facendo un pesto alla genovese, così come se usi lo zafferano non stai necessariamente facendo un risotto alla milanese. Ha fatto un pesto a modo suo, dando a questi ragazzi degli spunti sulla preparazione e sul non sprecare ciò che si ha in casa.
    Bottura è un genio della cucina e ci sta aiutando a tenere viva la cucina italiana nel mondo. Non so se alcuni di voi sono cuochi professionisti o addirittura chef, spero di no, spero che i commenti astiosi provengano solo da gente che si approccia amatorialmente alla cucina.

    What people complaining in the comments don’t get, is that when a Italian chef is doing a variation on the traditional recipe, it’s like a orchestra maestro doing a variation on the rhythm of a symphony: you just have to trust him, and not make any judgment, unless you try the taste of the new recipe yourself. After all there is a reason if he is in the video and we are in the comments.
