Il tempo scritto sulla confezione della pasta è il tempo giusto di cottura se la vuoi "al dente". Poi puntare uno o due minuti in meno, se sai che ci metti un po' a scolarla, in modo che una volta scolata il tempo totale raggiunge quello indicato.
Sicilians are Italians. Sicilians eat their pasta with a fork and a spoon. In other regions of Italy like Lazio, the region of Rome, Italians use only a fork.
That's very, very delicious looking! I remember myself just looking out to the others and seeing the completely roll their forks and eat pasta, so I did exactly that myself! Improvisation 😂. Loved this video Anna, that pasta did make my mouth water lol.
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel This is a dicey question 😂. But I think my top favorite has to be Biryani! It's a must try when you go to India. I really liked this short yet sweet video about how to eat the pasta the Italian way. Plus, we got cooking tips from you! (Especially very helpful for a bad cook like me)!
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel Now that you ask it, I feel like I really need to go out and explore. I know that there's a lot of Indian and Pakistani restaurants in Grønland in Oslo. I'll probably go there, like now cuz I'm hungry. (Won't take long it's like a 10 mins ride on my motorbike) I'll let you know something that's good.
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel I just had my dinner at Aroma! It's very good! You may also try a restaurant called "New Delhi" Which serves all the food from New Delhi and rest of India in Oslo under the name New Delhi. (That's one complicated sentence).
It must also be said that each seasoning corresponds to a type of pasta: linguine, or bavette, with fish, dry pasta with most traditional recipes (carbonara, cacio e pepe, amatriciana, etc.), while egg pasta is perfect with mushrooms or with meat sauce, while stuffed pasta can also be prepared in broth, but based on the same main ingredient as the filling, or with neutral sauces (for example with tomato sauce), and then there is a another world, that of gnocchi, which in each region they prepare with a different ingredient (the classic potatoes, but also polenta, pumpkin, semolina, spinach, etc.). And then there is the polenta, also of many types, but this is a separate matter ...
im ITA when I cook pasta I never look at the cooking time, I always taste it before, when it is almost cooked I throw it down ... you notice it when it is about to soften, you must not overdo it but otherwise it becomes "scotta" that is say that it exceeds the cooking level and becomes less good and too soft ... first we boil the water and then throw in the pasta, at which point you wait 10 minutes, but I repeat, I always taste first to be safe. i think when you become an expert you begin to understand when you have to throw it out of the pot ... after a thousand pasta haha, there are many little tricks to make it, sometimes we keep a little water from the pasta and add it to mix it with the sauce or in general not to make it too dry.
i went to italy in the mid 90's (with my boys choir) and, before i went, we were taught how to eat pasta with a spoon. looking back? i guess it was the fact that they didn't want x30 12year olds disrupting an entire country with thier slurping. 🤣🤣
So, I know for a fact that eating pasta with fork and spoon is something that is mostly for children and elderly, but also in certain regions it is the preferred way. Other than that, respecting traditions is a nice thing to do for sure. Just saying, as a Norwegian, I still only use a fork with long pasta, and tbh it is easier than adding a spoon or cutting with a knife.
Love Italian food so much❤❤❤ Question: how would you eat papardelle with just a fork? They are just wide. Are knives a big no no for eating side pasta like palaedelle
When I was a boy, let’s say 30 years ago, I witnessed firsthand how non-Italians where absolutely clueless about how to cook pasta (now it’s much better). While I was in a camping facility, I saw a German family trying to cook spaghetti on a camping stove simply putting them into a pot wit WITH NO WATER, turning on the stove, and waiting for a miracle to happen.
Oh god yes some shockers out there ,cooking it in a microwave and aaaarghhhhh USING A KNIFE WITH SPAGHETTI/Linguine etc and a spoon for that ridiculously naffswirl crap 😩😩😩
@@rebeccajames858 I may partially condone the use of a spoon. Some Italians do that too. However, in some other cases I witnessed mistreating pasta in ways that would have been considered heresy and witchcraft some centuries ago.
Thanks for the video, I just think that there was too much talking before the actual important information. But otherwise this is very helpful. Thanks for your spirit
My husband didn’t know how to eat spaghetti when I first met him. He took a knife and was ready to cut it until I screamed, showed him how it’s done and he copied me. He did well until some time last year when he cut his spaghetti just to tease me 😢

At 4:05 she says it is not traditional to eat spaghetti with a fork & spoon. It actually is the traditional way to eat it. Go back in time 100 years and that was the proper way to eat spaghetti. It was only since the end of WW2 that the tradition stopped.
@@sabrinachicco5930 Yes, prior to WW2 it was proper etiquette in Italy to eat spaghetti with a fork and a spoon. I do not know why Italy no longer uses the spoon, but I wish they still did. It’s disgusting how they eat spaghetti today just twirling it in the dish with the fork. Then they slurp the dangling spaghetto dangling from their mouth. For a country that prides itself on tradition, they did away with a lot of their traditions.
"Italy" is more than Rome and north. My father (born and raised in Abruzzo ,1895-1921), and my mother (born in USA but lived in Italy as a young girl for six years as a teen) both taught their children to use a fork and spoon -- when a spoon was there in primo piatto setting. This was likely the "tradition" in the mezzogiorno and galateo corretto there. If no spoon at primo piatto, then use the plate to twirl. Stop worrying about how it looks (to others) and just ENJOY! Ho mangiato in ristoranti e con la famiglia in Abruzzo e a volte ho usato un cucchiaio. Mai dato "infarto" a nessun italiano.
My family was from Abruzzo also, technically Abruzzi e Molise in those days, and the same generation as your father. You are right, 100 years ago the fork and spoon were the proper way to eat spaghetti. Since WW2, the tradition stopped or at least started to die out. But yea go back 100 years, and it was a must to eat spaghetti with a fork & spoon.
I tempi di cottura indicati sono solo un suggerimento e sempre va provato il grado di cottura. Togliere la pasta dalla cottura 2 minuti prima va bene se poi la pasta la si mette nella padella del condimento e la cottura continua intanto che la pasta si unisce al condimento preparato. Prima di versare la pasta nel condimento è sempre meglio aggiungere al condimento un pò di acqua presa dalla pentola di cottura della pasta stessa.
I feel like you could've showed yourself eating the forkful of pasta, cuz as an American who has always eaten pasta with a knife or spoon, I don't understand how you're not getting food all over your mouth when you slurp up the lose spaghetti hanging off the fork.
1) Overcooked pasta raises the glycemic index; while "al dente" lowers it; 2) Eating pasta with a fork and accompanying it with a spoon is not at all unusual and wrong in Italy; the things that make us shiver are the absurd toppings of the Anglo-Saxons and their criminal way of cooking it
in Italy only children who are still learning to eat pasta correctly use the spoon. seeing someone use a spoon while eating spaghetti is almost as annoying as seeing them cut spaghetti.
@@sonosoloio Beh….. però adesso non possiamo paragonare l’uso di forchetta e cucchiaio, mentre uno mangia gli spaghetti, con chi invece usa addirittura il coltello per tagliare gli spaghetti !

@@sonosoloio bruh, when I use just fork I can never swirl my pasta properly, I'm just left with these long strands that are impossible to swirl around and it's uncomfortable to put in your mouth. Spoon helps me a lot with that
No, it is not. Go back in time about 100 years and that was the proper way to eat spaghetti with a fork and spook. It was a tradition that went back centuries. It has only been since WW2 the tradition changed.
@@kaersten3623 I think because so many Americans and non Italians were there at the end of the war, and the younger generation wanted to show they weren’t their parents generation. Do you know the song Tu A Fa Americano. If you understand those lyrics I think that’s why. But it’s just a guess I really don’t know. So I’m Italian-American so I get I’m not a real Italian because I’m not the ones in Italy today. So I say, but the ones in Italy today are not like my grandparents were, and I’m much closer the their zeitgeist then the Italians of today.

Using the spoon is like the training wheels on a bike, no adult Italian use it because they have at least 20 years of regular practice! I think that the spoon is perfectly fine when starting and as you improve you use the side of the plate instead

@@deusexmacchina I don’t care if people eat spaghetti with their feet. My point is historically, for centuries, the proper way was to eat it in Italy was with a fork and spoon.

@@petermartinijr.1012 you can blend them to a paste and squirt them up your nostrils with a siringe for what I care.

Regarding the exact periods of the switch I'm very skeptical, I've find no written sources about it, the Galateo's website (in Italian) doesn't mention any switch, it just provides the current standard. Also none of my Italian grandparents (Italian as borne, lived and died in Italy, the oldest of which borne in 1915) ever mentioned using the spoon, not even in the past.

I just eat the food the way i like. I am not Italian so i dont realy care if i get strange eyes. Its the taste of Italy that maters. There is many countries in the world that dont eat salmon the same way we do in Norway, but i gues it taste amazing anyways. That is the amazing thing of different cultures. Dont try to copy others, just be your self! :D Have a wonderful Saturday night! :D
of course you can do whatever you want, just be awared you will look strange to the italian eyes. if you cut your spaghetti we will see you like a kid, if you put ketchup on it we will think you are rude towards the chef, but yes, it s your problem at the end of the day and we will know we have to deal with an arrogant foreigner.
I ate pasta in Rome , Florence and Milan with a knife and a spoon.I cut the pasta to small pieces then dig in with a spoon, who cares what and how the Italians do it… eat your way I eat my way.
hmm, there are all these rules, but frankly if you use a spoon too it is FAR easier and FAR less of a mess. No sauce splatter on your white shirt and silk tie, no bits falling off the fork and no cramp in your fingers and hand twirling like mad for ages, slurping the last hanging bits (too fast and the pasta gains in oscillation speed as you slurp and the pasta gets shorter which then rats tails your face too (with sauce in your eyes, up your nose on your cheeks etc!!!!) ...and you can finish it whilst it's still warm as a result!
Rubbish Anna....there are regions in Italy where spoon is being used, also traditionally...in the USA also, in a number of IT - Restaurants wouldn't look weird if one attempt to spoon a spaghetti...secondly, cooking the pasta minus 2 minutes is wrong, "al dente" means to check the pasta while cooking - it should be bring back from boiling exactly when a very, very thin layer of still uncooked pasta in the middle of the pasta form is seen....if there is to finish a pasta in the pan (for whatever the reason) it has to be taken away from the pot even earlier.... anyway, where is all this need to discuss unnecessary issues coming from ::))....ratings ?...it is not an espresso after all :)
Do u put salt in the water when cooking your pasta in Italy? We do, I am half Sicilian on my mother's side and German on my late father's side.

Rubbish Anna....there are regions in Italy where spoon is being used, also traditionally...in the USA also, in a number of IT - Restaurants wouldn't look weird if one attempt to spoon a spaghetti...secondly, cooking the pasta minus 2 minutes is wrong, "al dente" means to check the pasta while cooking - it should be bring back from boiling exactly when a very, very thin layer of still uncooked pasta in the middle of the pasta form is seen....if there is to finish a pasta in the pan (for whatever the reason) it has to be taken away from the pot even earlier.... anyway, where is all this need to discuss unnecessary issues coming from ::))....ratings ?...it is not an espresso after all :)
