      The copycat Alfredo is worth it! I haven’t tried Raphael’s version of the copycat yet, and when I made it my garlic didn’t fully dissolve in the sauce. So I did it slightly wrong, and it still tasted almost identical 😅I will be trying it again soon with the proper technique lol

  • @SheriLynNut
    @SheriLynNut Рік тому +154

    The only thing that makes me question it as authentic is, (as a former restaurant owner), the quantities are not written in typical restaurant amounts. But maybe they made it so the average person could make it?
    Whatever the case may be, I’m here for you trying them!

      I agree with you and specially comparing with the Panda Express recipes these are way more home cook friendly?? At the same time I can't argue with the way they taste. If I didn't think they were legit I would have just deleted it from the video 💙

    Hi Raphael, In one of these type of videos you should try Skyline Chili or Gold Star Chili. It's a favorite here in Kentucky and Ohio. It's a German style chili over spaghetti, topped with onions (if you like), lots of cheese and oyster crackers. You can buy the seasoning packets on line for both, to make it homemade or you can get Skyline frozen. I'd love to see you try this. I think you might love it.
