Dear Viewers: Apologies for the brief 'side view' angle of the pan that many of you are displeased about. As we've explained in several comments, we had a technical malfunction and lost the preferred angle during that part of the video. We have over 100 mouthwatering videos on this channel and I think this is the only one with this egregious error ;) so we invite you to subscribe to our channel. We are sure you won't be disappointed :) Thanks for watching and... Buon appetito!

As an Italian I can confirm that this pasta is not underrated as it is one of the "four great Roman pasta's" along with Carbonara, Cacio e pepe and Amatriciana but I can also confirm that your technique and choice/use of ingredients are absolutely perfect.

@survivaloptions4999 Ай бұрын

I think he means underrated by non-Italians. Most non-Italians pasta knowledge ends right after spaghetti and alfredo. Maybe carbonara. Lol

Made this with pancetta and parm because that was what was available. It was amazing! One key is to boil the pasta in as little water as possible because that makes the water very starchy which is required for the sauce to be very velvety and thick.

@PiattoRecipes 23 күн бұрын

"Pasta corta" translates to "short pasta" in English. It refers to various types of pasta that are short in length, typically less than a few inches. These types of pasta are often tubular or shaped, making them ideal for holding sauces and being used in various dishes. Examples of "pasta corta" include penne, rigatoni, fusilli, and farfalle. These pasta shapes are commonly used in recipes where the pasta needs to hold onto sauces or be mixed well with other ingredients.

@PiattoRecipes that's hilarious. That's the EXACT recipe video that I have derived my carbonara recipe from. Thing is, I just started making carbonara and have only had bacon when I made it. I'm going to go out on a limb and just figure they, like everyone else, worked with what they had.

Even when making lazy cacio e pepe where i just grind cheese on a plate and I add pasta and water over it, the cheese still melts half of the time ;(. either the ph of the cheese is off by a lot, or the pasta everything is still too hot.

@PiattoRecipes Жыл бұрын

It has to be the temp of the water (too hot) or the grate of the cheese. You want the finest powder consistency on the cheese. Watch our cacio and Pepe video for an even more detailed explanation of how water temp affects the cheese. Keep trying!
