Gordon once yelled out in a restaurant, "They've COOKED my lettuce!!". Face it, Ramsey will say anything to make a buck. He may once have been a good chef (and was well trained), but is now a grifting celebrity.
Nothing wrong with making a buck. I am not into the whole celebrity thing but Gordon Ramsey has done countless charity and mentored men in recovery from addiction and helps to train them to cook so they stay out of prison.
I think he cares for his restaurants, and his shows like Masterchef and Kitchen nightmares and whatnot. I mean it's not coincidence these are well respected and liked. But I would guess these recipe videos are produced by some separate crew and Gordon just pops up there to do the shoot and that's it. I do think he's good chef, and I think we have seen it multiple times, but I also think these recipe videos are largely a gift like you said.
So many British chefs that I watch seem to want to throw so many ingredients together in a dish that the flavors would all become muddied together. I'll never understand it. One of the things that really impressed itself into me when I first started cooking in earnest 15 years ago or so, was something I think Anthony Bourdain said in an episode of No Reservations: "Good food isn't just about expensive ingredients or classically-trained French chefs. Real good food is very often simple ingredients cooked simply, but done well." RIP Anthony. You are always missed.
OMG... he's made a "butter-lettuce" pasta. There has to be *at least* a stick of butter in that concoction-! Wow. This recipe is vying with Fettuccine Alfredo for most fat calories. (But Gordon did get a chance to show-off the Hexclad cookware - which he constantly shills for). So I guess it wasn't a total loss for him. Thanks, Vincenzo.
Other reaction video, question was asked "what is the enemy of flavour?" (Water). But Frenchie responded (immediate quip) "Jamie Oliver" Now if I'm asked what is the enemy of flavour, my response Gordon Ramsay. We need a new series DisaterChef the antithesis of MasterChef. Candidates Kay, Jack, Saltmeh, Jamie Oliver, Gordon Ramsey. Can you suggest other candidates (aka victims)?
He is a chef. He is a tv personality as well. I've worked with chefs who learned under some very well known chefs - well known in culinary circles, before youtube etc - when your food was more important than your amount of clicks on a video(youtube wasn't around at the time)
Honestly, Ramsay has so many legit great cooking/tutorial videos I'm convinced this is some suit dropping a fat stack of cash in front of him to get him to use their own personal recipes lmao.
I am happy there are ppl like you to defend real Italian cuisine. The likes of Gordon and Jamie are corrupting cooking with their cream and lemon grass in anything just to get likes. I made your ragout with chuck (paleontology in French) and it was delicious! Keep the authentic recipes coming, I learn something new every time ❤❤
I saw a Chinese cooking channel making an amazing Capellini + Chives noodle dish. Tried it, amazing. Honestly we might have to re-categorize the Angel Hair Pasta to Asian Mian because that seems to be its best use- just like Vincenzo, I can’t get it to work for Italian. But even that dish- it’s just chopped chives & Chives Oil, Dark Soy Sauce, chilis. That’s it- SIMPLE and magical.
@@lucymiau5700 search petite pois a la Francoise 👌 Also natural ingredients like lettuce and chives haven't been "made" to be eaten in any way, we eat them how we like to eat them and it doesn't make us sick, that's all. You can say meat is intended to be cooked, but it doesn't mean you have to cook meat to eat it.
I'm French (2 ways in France : north/butter - south/olive oil) but in fact, there is too much butter in his recipe :D And I think he wants to make french peas (peas, lard and lettuce cook together) pasta. So, like Vincenzo said, let the pasta to Italians :)
italy is the same, butter in the northern, olive oil in the middle/southern but with pork lard all over the board. Vinny is Abruzzo but thinks Roman cooking applies to all of Italy.
Chives are native to the temperate climates of Europe and Asia. They have been used in myriads of cuisines across the millennia, Roman authors regularly mentioned them for instance. I will concede they are associated more with yoghurty/salad type dishes in Italian cuisine but Vince has way overshot with his statement there.
@SalterThe I think the chives are just replacing the onion in the dish. Also, maybe enhancing the garlic, too. Well, my parents are Italians, and different regions use different ingredients. Our neighbours do dishes differently to us and so on. They are from Southern Italy.
I love learning about traditional foods outside the US and while I have some knowledge about Italian vuisine, ai will never learn as much about it as you do. But these videos get me closer, even if they depict terrible renderings of dishes. Your commentary is super informative. So thank you.
Yes, in fact they put them everywhere, even in Carbonara ! It is also probable that if you order a cappuccino somewhere in England, you will also find some peas inside. ;)
This dish looks like he wanted to make vegetable soup with leftover ingredients, but remembered he also had pasta so it became a 'pasta dish' I can't justify that amount of butter though
I did try it. I only used a half pound of butter in mine... but honestly...I was surprised how good this actually was. Nothing about it seemed right to me....but... it was absolutely delicious.
Lardon is lard.... you dont cut a piece of meat in little piece and call it lard if there is not lard ......lardon has to be cut with the fat in 3 parts of the animal, belly, back and ''chest''. So yes its a ''little piece of'' but it has to be lard
Brilliant review Vincenzo 🤣🤣 you made me laugh a lot. My dad is Italian, I showed him this and I can’t say here what he said, but he did say 4.5 was very generous 🤣
Over here (UK) all bacon is cured - usually in salt and a little sugar, but sometimes other flavourings if it's a specialist version - and then can be smoked or not. There's also back bacon (with a big medallion of meat and less fat) and streaky bacon (the straight, fattier bit). I know it's a bit different in the States - they don't seem to have back bacon there as a rule - and may also be in Australia. Also, with regard to chives, they've been cultivated and used in European cuisine for centuries - not just an eastern ingredient.
Yes but not in a pasta dish, for gods sake. You can put it in your salad or sprinkle it on your eggs benedict sandwich if you like. But chives and lettuce don''t fit in a pasta dish. Basta co si!
@@frankieboy5859 You due realize what he called lettuce was bok choy at type of cabbage right, which is actually pretty common in alot of asian noodle dishes.
To be fair in his defense he didn't say he was making an Italian pasta dish (like on the carbonara video), he said he was making a pasta dish created by him, so it doesn't make that much sense criticising him by italian traditional standards when that's not what he is trying, hence the chives and lettuce (although tbh I also don't see why use lettuce). Just because he's making pasta doesn't mean it's supposed to be Italian couisine. But yeah, Gordon really fumbles making pasta in general I agree with everything else
I don't agree bc there are certain ingredients which don't go together with pasta very well and if you folllw some basic italian rules it guides you to not use these ingridients. That doesn't mean you have to exactly follow all the italian rules or that you can't create your own pasta dish, but the basic rules help you to make a good pasta dish. What Gordon did here is simply horrible
There is a reason Gordon has 21M subscribers and Vincenzo has only 5% of that. If nobody makes new recipes everyone would be eating the same thing. Imagine Vincenzo commenting on Carbonara the day it was created... I can just hear him saying "this is not Italian" We all know he reviews Ramsey to try and get a few extra followers... Just my 2 cents. 👌
@@garywalsh7289 Nah, many times Vincenzo gives valid criticism because when these famous Chefs are doing straight up baisc mistakes when cooking some types of recipe or calling it traditional Italian recipe when there's nothing traditional about it not even how they cook it. Plenty examples of this. However this time it doesn't make sense to judge by those standards, that's my comment.
I TOTALLY agree with Vincenzo, Italian recipes (Greek recipes too) were made at home, less complicated, (Olive oil instead of butter). There is way too much butter in this dish. Good job Vincenzo for commenting on this video.
Vincenzo, Ramsay never called this an Italian dish. Just because a dish contains pasta does not make it italian. As always, his choice of ingredients is suspect, but he in no way claimed that this was an italian dish. I like to make an elbow pasta salad with tuna. It is in no way an Italian dish, but according to you it's Italian because it has pasta.
Mmm... but that really is Italian. Though elbow pasta hasn't been popular for decades and farfalle are prefered. Tuna, fresh cherry tomatoes and sliced olives, and sometimes basil pesto. Greeks would also add feta cubes. An amazing recipe.
I love it! Vincenzo keep doing what you're doing! You're one of the reasons I try to educate myself on the right way to eat food. Not just Italian but ALL cultures!
Gordon: Let me cook something healthy. I'll start with bacon. Too red. I need yellow. Butter, Butter, Butter and more butter. A little pasta and grapeseed oil. Dammit. I need green. Someone mow the lawn and bring me whatever is in the bucket. Green is healthy. No matter what you add next to it. Puts more butter in. Too healthy is bad for you.
Yeah, gordon wasn’t trying to be authentic here at all. He wanted to show a uk infused style pasta dish for an audience of his programme that are predominantly… english..
crazy that one of the most recognizable scenes in kitchen nightmares is gordon shitting on a chef for serving a "grilled lettuce" ceasar salad, acting like the idea of cooking lettuce is this crazy unthinkable thing, then he cooks lettuce into pasta. why????
cauz he holds double standards. yells and disrespects others, but when he does mistakes like this, all a sudden the same rules don't apply to him. this is why i prefer watching vincen because don't have to deal with toxicity and get to enjoy a wholesome cooking show. i enjoyed the sphagetti olio video, it got me interested in trying to cook. something not overly complicated and just takes practise 😌
Chives (Allium schoenoprasum) are a classic herb from northern europe and france, the Asian one you're thinking of are garlic chives (Allium tuberosum)
Don't be sorry Vincenzo. I can only guess, but my theory is...the reason he's using so many ingredients and a TON of butter, is to cover the taste of the peas! What amazes me is that he's a Michelin Star chef and he doesn't understand the ingredients. Less is more. Simplicity is magic!
Did he ever say he was cooking an Italian dish? Also, I think most people would be shocked to see how much butter is used in professional kitchens. You say to enjoy the local ingredients; I don't like peas at all, especially in pasta. But, peas are very popular in his country. Someone enjoying pasta outside of Italian cuisine is not destroying Italian food culture. It shouldn't be insulting to you, unless he calls it Italian.
After folllowing Vincenzo for over 1 year, I, as an aisian homecook, be aware of Italian cuisine is all about simple, Love, passion and Respect to ingredients Do not over complicate unnessarily food like what Gordon was doing it this video
Hi Vincenzo, always love your videos and I'm sure I don't want to put this "creation" in my mouth but I have a question. Why are you so offended by this? As far as I remember Gordon didn't claim to make an Italian dish. What if one wants to make a dish based on Italian dried pasta but uses only non-Italian ingredients in a tasteful manner? Would you still be offended? Will it again be the destruction of Italian cousine? Should one not call this pasta hence it has Italian dried pasta as a base? Should one call it noodles instead of pasta?
He’s learned this is what gets his videos the most views wether it’s a valid criticism or not. Maybe running out of his own recipes to share instead? Also likely doesn’t ever come up with “new” recipes since he is so strict on remaining “traditional”
If you asked Vincenzo probably he'd agree that Gordon has the right to put lettuce with pasta if he wanted to, for example. Its just that in his opinion the ingredients don't go together; they don't complement each other. And for many chefs there are certain universal rules that you follow when cooking, for example you don't microwave your lettuce either. I don't think this is necessarily about what is true Italian cuisine or not as much as it is just an understanding of what things go together. But separately, I think he is lamenting the loss of Italian cuisine a bit. But I understand him from a different perspective. I don't think he's saying its wrong to experiment. But he's saying there is a core of what makes Italian cuisine so tasty that is being lost by constant introduction of new ingredients; that less is more as he said in the video. But yeah, other than that...if you can find a "good" way to experiment where the ingredients complement each other somewhat, then I assume Vincenzo would be okay with it. But I do agree he gives off vibes that cooking should only be done a "certain" way sometimes but I think there are reasonable interpretations for it rather than a kind of elitism Because in general I agree that cooking should be completely open, however you want to cook it, it should be up to you as long as its safe.
I would like to see a reaction to traditional Hungarian pasta dishes. Unfortunately it is unlikely you will find videos with english sub, but if you are up for the challenge: Mákos tészta (Pasta with poppy seed usually topped with powder sugar) Grízes tészta (Pasta with semolina topped with fruit jam, usually apricot) Krumplis tészta (Pasta mixed with potato made like a stew with paprika, best with fermented cucumber. I can eat this anytime) Túrós tészta (Pasta mixed with túró, which is a milk product similar to cottage cheese, topped with tejfől (something like cream fresh) fried bacon and optionally raw red onion - also, a very good option to mix with fish stew) Káposztás tészta (Pasta mixed with caramelised cabbage, one of my favourites) And for a desert: Vargabéles (cannot explain:)
Lmao when I saw the lettuce, I knew Vincenzo was going to lose his shit :s You can 100% tell Ramsay's daughter's influence with the amount of "literally" he uses lol.
@@lucymiau5700 I dunno, when I moved to California in 2000, they were saying it a lot back then and it was extremely confusing for me because I didn't understand it as an "adjective". Kinda like when my NYC friend came to visit and started using the word "deadass" lol which I STILL don't really understand the context it is used in because it seems like a wide variety of uses. Makes me feel old.
The funny thing is it wasn't even lettuce he used in the recipe it was Bok Choy which is a type if cabbage. What ramsey made was a sad excuse of a pork chow fun
Love the vids and your passion and knowledge for Italian cooking, Chef! I understand your frustration with Ramsey, but your reactions did make me laugh ha. I have zero professional training, but even I am aware of the simple and obvious mistakes from Ramsey. Olive oil when boiling .. water?! Lettuce?! More and more butter?! Bleh. Are you sure Ramsay didn't film his video on April Fools Day?
Basil goes in at the end, yes. I'd say that the chives (if you really have to use it) goes in at the end too. Chives basically boiled in butter has a horrible mouth feel. It needs to be fresh and crisp. And the peas? Well, it's a British thing. Peas in and on everything. If it doesn't have peas it's not food. 😄 This is probably a tasty dish, but I don't think it's a dish I'd make myself.
Unless I missed it, he never called this an Italian dish. He called it a pasta dish. I live in Louisiana, and we have many pasta dishes that are in no way Italian. Italians introduced pasta to the world, so Italiana are just going to have to accept that pasta is now used for more than Italian food.
I am impressed. Ingredients: Butter, Butter, some green thingies, more butter, some bacon (because there is not enough fat in it already), garnish with more butter more green thingies and don´t forget to add butter. I am quite sure this might be as healthy as fast food. Though I think even McD or BK would be much healthier at this moment. Sometimes I am not sure, if Gordon is trolling the world, or if he really means it, with this kind of cooking. Here I would place the question: If someone would cook this pasta dish for him.. What would his comments be like?
@@RandomKissFan0815 Here's my problem - when someone so fundamentally screws up a dish, it casts shade on everything else they make. Most chefs in "better" restaurants overdo both salt and butter (and sometimes sugar), and many/most people think it's a great dish. Think Olive Garden. There isn't that much butter in real Alfredo (and there's no creme fraiche either like Ramsey uses). Ramsey just went ridiculous with the butter here, and what's with the Romaine? If he wanted leafy greens, he should have gone with something like escarole or even broccoli rabe that would stand up to a hot dish.
@@ohger1why do you not let him create and show his own dishes? Let me watch you 24/7, and see if I like your dishes, if not I'll talk bad about you. Or am I misunderstanding something? if you don't like it don't cook it. Although this doesn't mean that I don't agree with you about if I'd like the dish or not (too much fat for me I think)
As a Chinese, I can confirm that we do use chives in dumplings (sometimes) but we don't put chives in noodles because we're not accustomed to the practice.
@@dohss I'm not Taiwanese, and I don't really know what they put in their dishes, so I can't comment on that. In my family, we don't put chives in noodles. That's just me.
Speaking of peas, I always grew up with bolognese having peas and bay leaves. Recently I discovered that Sicilian ragu has peas and bayleaves. You should do some videos trying out regional ragu. I made a genovese ragu recently and that was something else.
Dunno where you grew up, but ragù is an has never made with peas. It is not called bolognese in italy. It is Tagliatelle al ragù. Nothing more, nothing less and it takes at least 4hrs to cook a proper ragù. You could add bayleaves, though, but not too much.
@@frankieboy5859 yes I'm well aware what ragu bolognese is, but if you look up regional ragu there's a lot of varients across Italy. The term bolognese has become somewhat synonymous with ragu in English language due to its popularity. This is not correct, but I was referring to what was referred to as "Bolognese" was growing up.
This Pig food can be a kind of dish for "stuffing yourself", but it definitely does not deserve to be called pasta. Vincenzo, we love you and greetings from Croatia ❤🫡
People think if you put a vegetable in a dish it makes it healthy. They'll say they want to eat healthy so they make some broccoli and cover it with velveta. Lol
Also I just realized he said in the beginning the capellini would take 4 minutes, then at the 5 minute mark he says the pasta was 3 minutes away... that pasta was long dead and mushy ☹️
This is what I'm getting hung up on. This reactor is acting like if you use pasta you have to keep to traditional Italian ideals. I get that the dish is pretty stupid but just because it uses pasta does not mean it's an Italian dish. Pasta has escaped Italian cuisine and is now a global ingredient used in all sorts of contexts.
In all due fairness, pasta originated in Italy. Gordon (a non-Italian) cooking pasta is actually cultural appropriation but the critic is nice enough not to point that out. He is just commenting what constitutes a great pasta dish according to him (Italian).
@@Wildskatz you people have made the term "cultural appropriation" meaningless. In all due fairness, it doesn't matter that pasta originated in Italy, different cultures all around the world use it now in their cuisines. Should we all stop making bread because it didn't originate in our cultures? This reasoning is just ridiculous.
This is why the times I've gone to other countries one of my favorite things is to just eat local foods. I've had to learn to cook food from other cultures myself because it's extremely difficult to find authentic places close to me...more fun too
I can't believe he forgot to put butter in it!!! 🤪 This reminds me of Andy Parsons' (UK stand up comedian) line form Mock the week show: Welcome to "It's late and there's not much left in the fridge". Today we're going to be making onion double cream banana pasta ketchup.
Gordon knows probably full well what you mean. But these videos are usually for the uk/us watchers wanting to put something on the table that contains carbs, meat and vegetables for, especially the childeren, to enjoy. As soon as he took out the peas. That’s exactly what his intentions are. So yes, you’re trying to help, but Gordon does his own UK-way of a pasta dish here. Nothing related to italian cuisine. Just something that english people eat more often, ingredients they know, that they trust to eat so they know it will taste good to them. But it’s not in italian dish at all.
@@ukwerna how so? If you’re not a cook and want to learn a dish that works for you and your family. There’s a lot to learn from Gordon’s video. What do you want to do? Claim dough and nobody can use it the way they want? Get out of here with your ridiculous opinion then and watch only authentic italian cooking channels.
Gordon cooked a Salad plus 40g of pasta. He should call it "Salade of bacon and peas / plus spaghetti + 1kg of butter"
Lol my thoughts exactly. Before I read your comment, I commented he made a warm pasta salad with butter dressing! 😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂
@@jenbrooks5872 🤣🤣🤣
and a splash of olive oil (pours whole bottle)
Looks like a salad but it has a lot of butter so it cannot be a salad.. it's a weird food
Plus a soup with lettuce I think it's called frikasse...sorry for my French...
Gordon once yelled out in a restaurant, "They've COOKED my lettuce!!". Face it, Ramsey will say anything to make a buck. He may once have been a good chef (and was well trained), but is now a grifting celebrity.

Chives are commonly used in northern Europe mate, not just for chinese food. We've had chives for far longer than we've had chinese restaurants.
True. Sour cream with chopped chives is a must to the herings for a traditional Swedish Midsummer lunch.
Chives are native to the temperate climates of Europe and Asia. They have been used in myriads of cuisines across the millennia, Roman authors regularly mentioned them for instance. I will concede they are associated more with yoghurty/salad type dishes in Italian cuisine but Vince has way overshot with his statement there.
Also that argument with Chives make no sense, when tomato sauce like Bolognese exists :D
@filipbavrlic5692 I don't think Vince's italian background used chives. Every region in Italy is slightly different in their foods they use, etc

I can't justify that amount of butter though
Gordon: "Pecorino Romano"
The Parmigiano Reggiano, who's been clearly stamped as such: "Am I a joke to you?"
If uncle Roger is watching this his leg is already down from the chair.
Specially with the lettuce
I did try it. I only used a half pound of butter in mine... but honestly...I was surprised how good this actually was. Nothing about it seemed right to me....but... it was absolutely delicious.
Chef James Makinson did a carbonara recipe recently. You should review it.
Looks pretty good
Thanks for beinging it to my attention! I'll check this video out 😊
@vincenzosplate He does specifically mention you, in the hopes that you see it. I would like to see a video of you two together.
Ahhhh my favorite videos. Vincenzo's critics of Gordon Ramsay. Best videos on the web 😁
Grazie mille! 😊 Always a pleasure to set the culinary record straight. Stick around for more pasta truth bombs! 🍝💣😆
just a quick pointer 4:10 he's not saying it's "lard", he said "lardons", "Lardons" just refers to how it's cut. (but yeah the bacon thing is true )
🤣
Lardon is lard.... you dont cut a piece of meat in little piece and call it lard if there is not lard ......lardon has to be cut with the fat in 3 parts of the animal, belly, back and ''chest''. So yes its a ''little piece of'' but it has to be lard
Brilliant review Vincenzo 🤣🤣 you made me laugh a lot. My dad is Italian, I showed him this and I can’t say here what he said, but he did say 4.5 was very generous 🤣
The first hot butter salad served with over-cooked pasta ever😂😂😂😂
Over here (UK) all bacon is cured - usually in salt and a little sugar, but sometimes other flavourings if it's a specialist version - and then can be smoked or not. There's also back bacon (with a big medallion of meat and less fat) and streaky bacon (the straight, fattier bit). I know it's a bit different in the States - they don't seem to have back bacon there as a rule - and may also be in Australia. Also, with regard to chives, they've been cultivated and used in European cuisine for centuries - not just an eastern ingredient.
Yes but not in a pasta dish, for gods sake. You can put it in your salad or sprinkle it on your eggs benedict sandwich if you like. But chives and lettuce don''t fit in a pasta dish. Basta co si!
@@frankieboy5859 You due realize what he called lettuce was bok choy at type of cabbage right, which is actually pretty common in alot of asian noodle dishes.
To be fair in his defense he didn't say he was making an Italian pasta dish (like on the carbonara video), he said he was making a pasta dish created by him, so it doesn't make that much sense criticising him by italian traditional standards when that's not what he is trying, hence the chives and lettuce (although tbh I also don't see why use lettuce). Just because he's making pasta doesn't mean it's supposed to be Italian couisine. But yeah, Gordon really fumbles making pasta in general I agree with everything else
I wanted to say the same.
I don't agree bc there are certain ingredients which don't go together with pasta very well and if you folllw some basic italian rules it guides you to not use these ingridients. That doesn't mean you have to exactly follow all the italian rules or that you can't create your own pasta dish, but the basic rules help you to make a good pasta dish. What Gordon did here is simply horrible
you kind of agree with him though, he was just talking about the "Italian tradition bashing"and not the dish itself@@flo_h_96
There is a reason Gordon has 21M subscribers and Vincenzo has only 5% of that.
If nobody makes new recipes everyone would be eating the same thing.
Imagine Vincenzo commenting on Carbonara the day it was created... I can just hear him saying "this is not Italian"
We all know he reviews Ramsey to try and get a few extra followers...
Just my 2 cents. 👌
@@garywalsh7289 Nah, many times Vincenzo gives valid criticism because when these famous Chefs are doing straight up baisc mistakes when cooking some types of recipe or calling it traditional Italian recipe when there's nothing traditional about it not even how they cook it. Plenty examples of this. However this time it doesn't make sense to judge by those standards, that's my comment.
I TOTALLY agree with Vincenzo, Italian recipes (Greek recipes too) were made at home, less complicated, (Olive oil instead of butter). There is way too much butter in this dish. Good job Vincenzo for commenting on this video.
Vincenzo, Ramsay never called this an Italian dish. Just because a dish contains pasta does not make it italian. As always, his choice of ingredients is suspect, but he in no way claimed that this was an italian dish. I like to make an elbow pasta salad with tuna. It is in no way an Italian dish, but according to you it's Italian because it has pasta.
Mmm... but that really is Italian. Though elbow pasta hasn't been popular for decades and farfalle are prefered. Tuna, fresh cherry tomatoes and sliced olives, and sometimes basil pesto. Greeks would also add feta cubes. An amazing recipe.
So... 'not italian', but he goes for guanciale and allegedly pecorino (later to be revealed to be parmigiano reggiano)? Yeah, sure buddy.
I love it! Vincenzo keep doing what you're doing! You're one of the reasons I try to educate myself on the right way to eat food. Not just Italian but ALL cultures!
If Vincenzo doesn't like Gordon's lettuce pasta he would probably hate my Sauerkraut Cannoli.
!!!!!!!!
Would eat
Gordon: Let me cook something healthy. I'll start with bacon. Too red. I need yellow. Butter, Butter, Butter and more butter. A little pasta and grapeseed oil. Dammit. I need green. Someone mow the lawn and bring me whatever is in the bucket. Green is healthy. No matter what you add next to it.
Puts more butter in.
Too healthy is bad for you.
I reckon he’s either being completely mental or just trolling Italians 😂
Vincenzo is the man!! 🙌🏼. Gordon can’t hold Vincenzo’s jockstrap in cooking! Vincenzo is very authentic. 👍🏼❤️🇮🇹💪🏼
Ramsey is a profane phony - no cheffin’ there
I bet he couldn’t care less what you think though.
Yeah, gordon wasn’t trying to be authentic here at all. He wanted to show a uk infused style pasta dish for an audience of his programme that are predominantly… english..
crazy that one of the most recognizable scenes in kitchen nightmares is gordon shitting on a chef for serving a "grilled lettuce" ceasar salad, acting like the idea of cooking lettuce is this crazy unthinkable thing, then he cooks lettuce into pasta. why????
I guess coherence is a word that he doesn't know 😅
Yeah, i thought of the exact thing!!
Its ridiculous!!
@@vincenzosplateyou mean like he thinks "al dente" means "overcooked mush" XD
cauz he holds double standards. yells and disrespects others, but when he does mistakes like this, all a sudden the same rules don't apply to him. this is why i prefer watching vincen because don't have to deal with toxicity and get to enjoy a wholesome cooking show.
i enjoyed the sphagetti olio video, it got me interested in trying to cook. something not overly complicated and just takes practise 😌
@@seimen4348this is how they typically eat peas in England after all
Chives (Allium schoenoprasum) are a classic herb from northern europe and france, the Asian one you're thinking of are garlic chives (Allium tuberosum)
I like butter with my butter.
OIL + BUTTER + PORK FAT ...
Mo buttah the mo bettah 😂😂😂
We Butter the bread with Butter...🤣🤣
Im learning so much about cooking pasta from this channel.
Don't be sorry Vincenzo. I can only guess, but my theory is...the reason he's using so many ingredients and a TON of butter, is to cover the taste of the peas! What amazes me is that he's a Michelin Star chef and he doesn't understand the ingredients. Less is more. Simplicity is magic!
It looks surreal with cooked lettuce, and all that butter. As if it was CGI deep fake.
Vincenzo as entertaining as always. 😊 thank you
Did he ever say he was cooking an Italian dish?
Also, I think most people would be shocked to see how much butter is used in professional kitchens. You say to enjoy the local ingredients; I don't like peas at all, especially in pasta. But, peas are very popular in his country.
Someone enjoying pasta outside of Italian cuisine is not destroying Italian food culture. It shouldn't be insulting to you, unless he calls it Italian.
No, he didn't. I saw the recipe as a culinary fusion; however, the salad in the pasta seemed inappropriate.
Exactly.
Vincenzo is an absolutist, of course he’ll be wound up!
He does mention in the video why he acts like that.
A typical Ramsay diehard. Way to ruin cooking
Ma che grape seed porca mizeria Gordon 😂😂 this video was funny.. you can see vincenzos heart break in slow motion with each ingredient
I love it when you say: "Ma che fai?!" 😂
After folllowing Vincenzo for over 1 year, I, as an aisian homecook, be aware of Italian cuisine is all about simple, Love, passion and Respect to ingredients
Do not over complicate unnessarily food like what Gordon was doing it this video
Hi Vincenzo, always love your videos and I'm sure I don't want to put this "creation" in my mouth but I have a question.
Why are you so offended by this? As far as I remember Gordon didn't claim to make an Italian dish. What if one wants to make a dish based on Italian dried pasta but uses only non-Italian ingredients in a tasteful manner? Would you still be offended? Will it again be the destruction of Italian cousine? Should one not call this pasta hence it has Italian dried pasta as a base? Should one call it noodles instead of pasta?
He’s learned this is what gets his videos the most views wether it’s a valid criticism or not. Maybe running out of his own recipes to share instead? Also likely doesn’t ever come up with “new” recipes since he is so strict on remaining “traditional”
If you asked Vincenzo probably he'd agree that Gordon has the right to put lettuce with pasta if he wanted to, for example. Its just that in his opinion the ingredients don't go together; they don't complement each other. And for many chefs there are certain universal rules that you follow when cooking, for example you don't microwave your lettuce either. I don't think this is necessarily about what is true Italian cuisine or not as much as it is just an understanding of what things go together.
But separately, I think he is lamenting the loss of Italian cuisine a bit. But I understand him from a different perspective. I don't think he's saying its wrong to experiment. But he's saying there is a core of what makes Italian cuisine so tasty that is being lost by constant introduction of new ingredients; that less is more as he said in the video. But yeah, other than that...if you can find a "good" way to experiment where the ingredients complement each other somewhat, then I assume Vincenzo would be okay with it. But I do agree he gives off vibes that cooking should only be done a "certain" way sometimes but I think there are reasonable interpretations for it rather than a kind of elitism
Because in general I agree that cooking should be completely open, however you want to cook it, it should be up to you as long as its safe.
I would like to see a reaction to traditional Hungarian pasta dishes. Unfortunately it is unlikely you will find videos with english sub, but if you are up for the challenge:
Mákos tészta (Pasta with poppy seed usually topped with powder sugar)
Grízes tészta (Pasta with semolina topped with fruit jam, usually apricot)
Krumplis tészta (Pasta mixed with potato made like a stew with paprika, best with fermented cucumber. I can eat this anytime)
Túrós tészta (Pasta mixed with túró, which is a milk product similar to cottage cheese, topped with tejfől (something like cream fresh) fried bacon and optionally raw red onion - also, a very good option to mix with fish stew)
Káposztás tészta (Pasta mixed with caramelised cabbage, one of my favourites)
And for a desert: Vargabéles (cannot explain:)
I think the pasta screamed "let us alone!" but all Gordon heared was lettuce
nice
I completely agree with your philosophy of Italian cooking.
Lmao when I saw the lettuce, I knew Vincenzo was going to lose his shit :s
You can 100% tell Ramsay's daughter's influence with the amount of "literally" he uses lol.
Haha I thought I was the only one who thought that! He never used to in his old videos but he literally says 'literally' in every sentence! 🤣😂
@@TriadWarrior9411 lol love the reply!! :D
Literally is the new In-word of the TikTok Generation.
@@lucymiau5700 I dunno, when I moved to California in 2000, they were saying it a lot back then and it was extremely confusing for me because I didn't understand it as an "adjective". Kinda like when my NYC friend came to visit and started using the word "deadass" lol which I STILL don't really understand the context it is used in because it seems like a wide variety of uses. Makes me feel old.
The funny thing is it wasn't even lettuce he used in the recipe it was Bok Choy which is a type if cabbage. What ramsey made was a sad excuse of a pork chow fun
"The Lettuce Does Not Belong To Pasta" === To quote Holden Caulfield of 'The Catcher in the Rye' , *Truer word was never spoken, boy!" LOOOOOOOL
Might as well call it ''Butteretti''
Lol
You just make me laugh, your comments, attitude, hair … but you’re right !
Lettuce in Pasta !! 🤣🤣
He lost me at lettuce...
I am glad I am not the only one 😂😂
civicinfluencers8117 lost me at Gordon Ramsey because the man is an idiot! Then when I heard lettuce... I just cried!!
Lettuce? In pasta? 🥴 That’s a hard pass from me! 🍅🍝
Love the vids and your passion and knowledge for Italian cooking, Chef! I understand your frustration with Ramsey, but your reactions did make me laugh ha. I have zero professional training, but even I am aware of the simple and obvious mistakes from Ramsey. Olive oil when boiling .. water?! Lettuce?! More and more butter?! Bleh. Are you sure Ramsay didn't film his video on April Fools Day?
been living in ITA for over 10 years now and i swear id lose friends over the lettuce in past thing 🤣🤣cosa fa questo raga
Basil goes in at the end, yes. I'd say that the chives (if you really have to use it) goes in at the end too. Chives basically boiled in butter has a horrible mouth feel. It needs to be fresh and crisp. And the peas? Well, it's a British thing. Peas in and on everything. If it doesn't have peas it's not food. 😄 This is probably a tasty dish, but I don't think it's a dish I'd make myself.
You should check out his recent "english breakfast pizza" video. That will really make your head explode.
Oh no.
Seriously?
I love your Italian style. Your right on point!
Unless I missed it, he never called this an Italian dish. He called it a pasta dish. I live in Louisiana, and we have many pasta dishes that are in no way Italian. Italians introduced pasta to the world, so Italiana are just going to have to accept that pasta is now used for more than Italian food.
I am impressed. Ingredients: Butter, Butter, some green thingies, more butter, some bacon (because there is not enough fat in it already), garnish with more butter more green thingies and don´t forget to add butter.
I am quite sure this might be as healthy as fast food. Though I think even McD or BK would be much healthier at this moment.
Sometimes I am not sure, if Gordon is trolling the world, or if he really means it, with this kind of cooking.
Here I would place the question: If someone would cook this pasta dish for him.. What would his comments be like?
I wouldn't let Ramsey heat a can of soup for me.. what a hack.
you cannot be serious.
He is actually a good chef but he tends to overcomplicate simple things like Jamie oversimplifies complicated things
@@RandomKissFan0815 Here's my problem - when someone so fundamentally screws up a dish, it casts shade on everything else they make. Most chefs in "better" restaurants overdo both salt and butter (and sometimes sugar), and many/most people think it's a great dish. Think Olive Garden. There isn't that much butter in real Alfredo (and there's no creme fraiche either like Ramsey uses). Ramsey just went ridiculous with the butter here, and what's with the Romaine? If he wanted leafy greens, he should have gone with something like escarole or even broccoli rabe that would stand up to a hot dish.
@@ohger1why do you not let him create and show his own dishes? Let me watch you 24/7, and see if I like your dishes, if not I'll talk bad about you.
Or am I misunderstanding something?
if you don't like it don't cook it. Although this doesn't mean that I don't agree with you about if I'd like the dish or not (too much fat for me I think)
@@heni63 Yes, you're misunderstanding everything. Try again.
I love your Italian culture of dishes!
I thought weird at first but I made this plate and it surprised me. Very good
Chives go well with a pasta, if you make it the principal ingredient; or often saw it working well as a garnish to stuffed pasta, e.g. Mezzelune.
As a Chinese, I can confirm that we do use chives in dumplings (sometimes) but we don't put chives in noodles because we're not accustomed to the practice.
Interesting
Taiwanese do put chives in some noodles
@@dohss I'm not Taiwanese, and I don't really know what they put in their dishes, so I can't comment on that. In my family, we don't put chives in noodles. That's just me.
@@chefethanguo9701 i'll put chives on a peanut butter sandwich if i want to. i won't put it in a video, however.
@@free_live_free-511 You do whatever you want, my friend, but it certainly does look bad on video! :)
Gordon doesn't know when to put down his tools: it used to be less is more but not anymore. You are my Italian chef expert Vincenzo!
Speaking of peas, I always grew up with bolognese having peas and bay leaves. Recently I discovered that Sicilian ragu has peas and bayleaves. You should do some videos trying out regional ragu. I made a genovese ragu recently and that was something else.
Dunno where you grew up, but ragù is an has never made with peas.
It is not called bolognese in italy.
It is Tagliatelle al ragù.
Nothing more, nothing less and it takes at least 4hrs to cook a proper ragù.
You could add bayleaves, though, but not too much.
@@frankieboy5859 yes I'm well aware what ragu bolognese is, but if you look up regional ragu there's a lot of varients across Italy. The term bolognese has become somewhat synonymous with ragu in English language due to its popularity. This is not correct, but I was referring to what was referred to as "Bolognese" was growing up.
This Pig food can be a kind of dish for "stuffing yourself", but it definitely does not deserve to be called pasta. Vincenzo, we love you and greetings from Croatia ❤🫡
I think he got the 'healthy' idea from the Office episode, where Michael bulks up with Fetucinne Alfredo, before a fun run 🤣
Gotta carbo load. Lol
People think if you put a vegetable in a dish it makes it healthy. They'll say they want to eat healthy so they make some broccoli and cover it with velveta. Lol
Vincenzo, iceberg lettuce with vinegar and scrambled egg in pasta is actually glorious
Also I just realized he said in the beginning the capellini would take 4 minutes, then at the 5 minute mark he says the pasta was 3 minutes away... that pasta was long dead and mushy ☹️
I don't think it was. The pasta looked perfectly al dente.
GR is so full of himself LOL Love your critique
Thanks! 😂 GR’s ego is bigger than his recipes! 🍝🙌
Gordon did call it a “pasta dish” not an authentic Italian dish.
This is what I'm getting hung up on. This reactor is acting like if you use pasta you have to keep to traditional Italian ideals. I get that the dish is pretty stupid but just because it uses pasta does not mean it's an Italian dish. Pasta has escaped Italian cuisine and is now a global ingredient used in all sorts of contexts.
With all that asian ingredients he should use Ramen noodles...🤣
Was thinking the same. Nowhere did he say he was making an authentic Italian recipe. I guess he needs the pasta for the carbs.
In all due fairness, pasta originated in Italy. Gordon (a non-Italian) cooking pasta is actually cultural appropriation but the critic is nice enough not to point that out. He is just commenting what constitutes a great pasta dish according to him (Italian).
@@Wildskatz you people have made the term "cultural appropriation" meaningless. In all due fairness, it doesn't matter that pasta originated in Italy, different cultures all around the world use it now in their cuisines. Should we all stop making bread because it didn't originate in our cultures? This reasoning is just ridiculous.
This is why the times I've gone to other countries one of my favorite things is to just eat local foods. I've had to learn to cook food from other cultures myself because it's extremely difficult to find authentic places close to me...more fun too
my tinfoil hat said: gordan taught the brits to cook terribly because he doesn't want any brits to cook better than him
😂😂😂😂
That... honestly makes a lot of sense.
Gordon isn't the cooking teacher of Britain.
I can't believe he forgot to put butter in it!!! 🤪
This reminds me of Andy Parsons' (UK stand up comedian) line form Mock the week show:
Welcome to "It's late and there's not much left in the fridge". Today we're going to be making onion double cream banana pasta ketchup.
One level below is also next level cooking LUL
Thanks for your reaction and the nice information on how to do it right on the way.
Any time! I'm glad you enjoyed this video and I hope you learned something from it as well.
Simplicity: "Ramsay, am I a joke to you?"
Ramsay: " Yes, you are. That's why I drowned you in butter."
Gordon knows probably full well what you mean. But these videos are usually for the uk/us watchers wanting to put something on the table that contains carbs, meat and vegetables for, especially the childeren, to enjoy.
As soon as he took out the peas. That’s exactly what his intentions are. So yes, you’re trying to help, but Gordon does his own UK-way of a pasta dish here. Nothing related to italian cuisine. Just something that english people eat more often, ingredients they know, that they trust to eat so they know it will taste good to them.
But it’s not in italian dish at all.
sorry, but even if you dont call this pasta, there is ZERO to learn from this video (the Gordon one)
@@ukwerna how so? If you’re not a cook and want to learn a dish that works for you and your family. There’s a lot to learn from Gordon’s video.
What do you want to do? Claim dough and nobody can use it the way they want?
Get out of here with your ridiculous opinion then and watch only authentic italian cooking channels.

This is an abomination that does not even look like 炒面. 炒面 don't have butter.
It's what I was thinking. For this kind of a dish, I'd go with some sort of Chinese noodles instead of Italian pasta.
"It's 90% butter now!" 🤣 That killed me.
