    In my college years I used to make ramen with butter and cheese all the time and I loved it. This video brings me back. I love when ppl cook things like this. It pisses off all the self anointed food snobs who are all of a sudden experts on what’s authentic because they watched it on youtube.

      He said it wasn't authentic, but Italian food has been Americanized and watered down for the masses, just like any cuisine.

      had a dude tell me I was stupid for mixing tofu with chicken chunks in a tofu chicken stir fry.
      Said tofu in authentic gourmet food is meant to sub out meat not be used with meat.

    Pasta is something derived from noodles. Italians can't really get mad, nor should they. Without noodles, there wouldn't be any pasta anyway.

      History
      Historians have noted several lexical milestones relevant to pasta, none of which changes these basic characteristics. For example, the works of the 2nd century AD Greek physician Galen mention itrion, homogeneous compounds made of flour and water. The Jerusalem Talmud records that itrium, a kind of boiled dough,was common in Palestine from the 3rd to 5th centuries AD. A dictionary compiled by the 9th century Arab physician and lexicographer Isho bar Ali defines itriyya, the Arabic cognate, as string-like shapes made of semolina and dried before cooking. The geographical text of Muhammad al-Idrisi, compiled for the Norman King of Sicily Roger II in 1154 mentions itriyya manufactured and exported from Norman Sicily:
      One form of itriyya with a long history is laganum (plural lagana), which in Latin refers to a thin sheet of dough, and gives rise to Italian lasagna.
      In North Africa, a food similar to pasta, known as couscous, has been eaten for centuries. However, it lacks the distinguishing malleable nature of pasta, couscous being more akin to droplets of dough. At first, dry pasta was a luxury item in Italy because of high labor costs; durum wheat semolina had to be kneaded for a long time.
      There is a legend of Marco Polo importing pasta from China[19] which originated with the Macaroni Journal, published by an association of food industries with the goal of promoting pasta in the United States. Rustichello da Pisa writes in his Travels that Marco Polo described a food similar to "lagana". Jeffrey Steingarten asserts that Arabs introduced pasta in the Emirate of Sicily in the ninth century, mentioning also that traces of pasta have been found in ancient Greece and that Jane Grigson believed the Marco Polo story to have originated in the 1920s or 30s in an advertisement for a Canadian spaghetti company.
      in Greek mythology, it is believed that the god Hephaestus invented a device that made strings of dough. This was the earliest reference to a pasta maker.
      In the 14th and 15th centuries, dried pasta became popular for its easy storage. This allowed people to store pasta on ships when exploring the New World. A century later, pasta was present around the globe during the voyages of discovery.
      Pasta manufacturing machines were made since the 1600s across the coast of Sanremo.

      vilko skorlich Great copy paste skill. Except everyone can do it. And while wikipedia is an almost accurate source of information, the editing freedom is another issue. Here's some internet info:
      "While we do think of pasta as a culturally Italian food, it is likely the descendent of ancient Asian noodles. A common belief about pasta is that it was brought to Italy from China by Marco Polo during the 13th century."
      Don't cry knowing that your culture is adopted. Plus, there's no shame in adopting other cultures and giving it your own twist.

    You would say that this is not authentic italian.But,if you go to a good italian restaurant they only cook the pasta halfway through in the water and then they put it inside the sauce with a bunch of starchy pasta water and stir it and evaporate out the excess water.That way you get an amazing emulsion and the pasta is soaked through with flavor.

    • @en2oh
      @en2oh Рік тому +2

      traditionally, it's pecorino. but many use a 2/3 1/3 pecorino/parmesan mix. If you really want a thickened sauce, consider 10g corn starch/150mls water, heat to thicken - add some oil and then, 150g pecorino/50g parmesan.... add the ramen water, ramen and... hmmm tasty! (and you can store the cheese sauce and make this again later in the week)
