One of NYC’s busiest restaurants is Don Angie, run by husband-and-wife duo Scott Tacinelli and Angie Rito. On top of serving an internet-famous lasagna for two, the restaurant serves whole roasted lobster, buffalo milk caramelle, a chrysanthemum salad, and more.

For those of you who haven't gotten it - they put out a book called Italian American. I'm a professional chef and it is an exceptional read! They put great modern spins on classic Italian dishes so its not like every other "red sauce" place you would see in Little Italy. Excellent work Chef!

You can literally do it yourself. They showed all the steps and the recipe isn't hard. The prep time is what's going to take you an entire day, since you have no experience, to do what they make in a few hours. 100% Possible though.

@ZainxIqbal 6 ай бұрын

@@RoyNatianSome dishes are meant to be made with dried pasta. If you watch Alex French Guy's pasta series on KZfaq, he explains how painfully difficult it is to make your own dry pasta. Using De Cecco for certain dishes is perfectly valid.

@RoyNatian 6 ай бұрын

@@ZainxIqbal that’s not relevant. They said all their pasts were hand made yet there’s pre-made pasta behind them.

@ZainxIqbal 6 ай бұрын

@@RoyNatian Not every dish is meant to be eaten with fresh pasta. When a restaurant says that their pasta is hand-made in-house, it's always in reference to their fresh pasta, such as we can see being done in this video. The reason for using De Cecco Dry Pasta is because fresh pasta can literally not be "al dente", as it has too much moisture and is too soft even before being cooked, and there's a lot of pasta dishes that are served "al dente", especially in traditional Italian cuisine. There's literally only ONE restaurant in the WORLD that makes their own dry pasta in-house: Luciano Cucina Italiana in Rome, Italy by Michelin-Star Chef Luciano Monosilio. It's really not economically feasible to make your own dry pasta whatsoever, let alone doing so in the USA. To give an example of how difficult or even ludicrous it is to expect a restaurant to make their own dry pasta is the equivalent of a restaurant being expected to grow and harvest their own rice on-premises. It's literally not within the skillset, man-power, or financial abilities of a restaurant to do so. Hope that makes sense.
