My Favorite Italian Pasta

“That’ll be $25 sir, adding chicken is an additional $5”

People be talking about how he massacred aglio e olio but he made agalagalagalo so chill out guys!

As an Italian, I wholeheartedly welcome all cultures to create their own spin on traditional dishes. At the end of the day, food brings us together and it is beautiful to see others love these dishes, even if they aren't EXACT to that tradition. Please stop gatekeeping food to those with criticism.

Pasta agalagalagalo has got to be my favourite pasta ever.

~Puts butter in aglio olio~ Elitist Italian: faints

Pasta agalagalglo 💀

Quick tip... when cooking pasta to get an optimal "cream" it is necessary to release enough starch from the pasta, everybody thinks that this magical starch comes from the pasta water but it actually comes from the pasta itself. Pasta react the same as risotto rice more you stir it more starch it releases. To get a better idea out of it you should boil the pasta for about 2 minutes in the water then transfer it to the pan with the desired sauce and cooking it for another 5 minutes while stiring it constantly with the tweezers adding one ladle of pasta water at the time. To get the optimal creaminess then just before plating ad some EVO oil to it jump that pasta like an Italian mad man and the oil mixing to the water will create one EMULSION that you will no need no butter no more my friend !!! Hope this will be helpful.

As Italian I love how every single step is wrong.

I'm saying that next time I order this. "Hello, can I get a Pasta Agalagalagalo?"

3 Italian nonnas died seeing him put butter on an aglio olio

That white water he poured into the sauce is actually some of the pasta water from the boil. That water has a lot of starch in it which helps bind all the flavors together and keeps the sauce from separating due to the fats and the lemon juice.

I made it. I can confirm it is amazing.

Italian dishes are the most simple dishes I ever seen. It's like the PB&J of cooking. An still you find people arguing over the recipes.

"Non si scrive l'Italia invano, vichingo". Cit.

Pasta with garlic and oil is considered peasant food which when looking at the most delicious peasant dishes throughout the world are always the best and most delicious. Pasta with “agio is garlic “ and “olio is oil.” As a Catholic and a Sicilian we would eat this almost every Friday during lent. Yum. Next time save a cup full of the starchy and salty pasta water it will give you and extra creaminess. I know you didn’t as for my opinion but here it is……always, always, always salt your pasta. Always. ❤

I'm Italian, grew up on Nonna's cooking, and these people who are so mad about the butter..... Smh. Whoever said people are mad if you don't make it like their nonna makes it is absolutely right. I'm totally used to how my family cooks and feel weird about other people's versions but geez louise these people are controlling and hateful. No appreciation for the simplicity of tasty food and no respect for the taste of others. It's like for example for me "traditional" lasagna does not have egg or carrot, though some would say it IS traditional! Yet for me that's sooooo weirddddd. But if someone puts it, sure I feel like ugh this isn't lasagna, but frankly if you set aside your emotions for a second you realize that it's pretty arbitrary and crazy to be so difficult and close minded. Just be respectful, man. It isn't that hard.

This pasta is now officially referred to as "agalaga lagalo"

from what I understand this is "spaghetti aglio, olio e peperoncino". a fairly famous recipe in Italy. you make it a little different but even here in Italy there are many variations. sorry for my English e buon appetito a tutti 😜

As an italian, I can confirm pasta agalagalaglo is the true, ancient name of aglio e olio

My favorite part about Italians is how they judge everyone’s cooking while chugging olive oil and spittin it into the food they’re cooking
