    I think they add parsley because they feel the recipe should be different somehow from a normal Carbonara (not only swapping out Guanciale for Mushrooms). Garlic and onion because they pretty much go hand in hand and substitute for some of the seasoning in the Guanciale.

      ​@@shadidsidri5476 No. Guanciale has absolutely no garlicky flavour... Have you even had guanciale? It's mostly cured lard. When you render it, it brings out primarily the flavour of fried lard, with a bit of umami and heat from the pepper. Garlic brings primarily a kind of acidic sweetness and pungency, similar to onions but with slightly more acidity and a different aroma. The reason for adding garlic to zucchini is not to *imitate* guanciale, but simply because garlic is a good aromatic for flavouring olive oil when frying zucchini. You would otherwise use onion, which also would work. If you don't actually know how to cook don't spew BS.

    I remember when I made Carbonara for the very first time. First couple batches were not that great, but I got better. I tried garlic for the first successful batch and it tasted off. I considered that the Umami (flavour enhancer trait) of the Garlic and of the Pecorino conflicted and that's why it was never used in the authentic recipe. I think a lot of these chefs think garlic is fine because they just never bothered trying the dish without it.

      I made Molly's carbonara last night; I didn't use garlic. Why is garlic thought of so highly by modern chefs - it's in everything? I just got in from talking to my grocery delivery driver. He told me his grandmother never used garlic as it wasn't available in wartime Northern Ireland. I agreed with all he said, my grannie was the same and her food was delicious. I think people who use garlic powder are the worst of all. I remember Peter Kay's astonishment that garlic bread would even exist! Why would anyone think the delicate flavour of lemon sole needs garlic. M&S does. My ex-wife loved garlic and her wooden chopping board was saturated with the stuff. It made cucumber sandwiches a nasty experience. Another thing, who would ever use dried chives?

    As a former culinary arts student from Norway, who has no background or much experience with italian cuisine, the reason I would say to put parlsey at the end from my training would simply be to add colour to the dish .
    Many would say to add addition flavour, but honestly it wouldn't give that much flavour besides it would likely clash with the flavours already in the dish.
    Also to note that while I studied in culinary arts in a norwegian high school as this education is a high school degree here without specializing in anything particular such as hotel management or something similar. So my education were based on the french kitchen as that's what I think most culinary arts educations would be based off on, but at the same time norwegian cuisine would be mixed into that❤

    I like watching Molly, she's sincere in her dishes and you can tell she loves what she's doing. Lately I've noticed a lot of people overusing garlic. I love garlic but it's so overwhelming and I chop mine using an Alligator Garlic chopper which makes a tiny dice because people tell me they don't like chomping into a chunk of garlic, and yes, that's true because I don't either. Sometimes depending on the dish I'll just use a garlic-infused extra virgin olive oil .

  • @MrBritishComedy
    @MrBritishComedy Рік тому +1

    10 to 15 minutes for mushrooms are not enough. 20 minutes minimum. The thing about mushrooms is that they contain a lot of water that they release very slowly and the water inside the mushrooms dilute their flavor. Likewise, adding salt to draw out the water actually helps you get the water to evaporate a bit faster. Therefore, you get the mushrooms to brown faster. The thing is that the browning doesn't happen before the water evaporates either way

    I don't mind parsley here. It works fine with mashrooms. One cooking tip for Molly - do not try your food with the wooden spoon. One thing it may change the flavor but the most important is that you try it then mix again in pot with contaminated spoon. For trying always use clean utensil.

I just upped the amount of fresh black pepper by like a quarter of the original amount. I made some for a friend and I was unable to find guanciale (unable to order online) and the quality of the pancetta around me was never the best.
