My favorite is what I call “Hair Pie.” It is made up of capelli d’angeli (angel hair pasta), caramelized onions, and parmigiana. It takes time to caramelize the onions, but it is worth it. That onion flavored sauce on the bottom of the skillet adds something special to the pasta! Caramelized onions go with anything- even mixed into purè di patate…. You always have an onion, you might as well use it! Are caramelized onions used in Italian cooking? I have never eaten them there, but that does not mean they do not prepare them - maybe they are part of the northern borders cuisines…

Rice and beans. Its ALWAYS in stock and iui ts basicly a complete meal for me having adequate protein and can be made side by side OR made together in one pot (with the correct ingredients of course) and its always delicious and sayisfying for everyone and is actually perfect if you have unexpected company. You can tell someone who half assed pasta because let's face it, a chimp can throw a box of pasta in hot water and itll come out great regardless but rice takes a bit of knowledge and if you sit down to a plate of steamy perfect rice ita always satisfying I mean who doesn't love rice right?

My Italian neighbor (native born) always coated her warm pasta in butter before adding any other sauces. She said olive oil was not as good a coating. I told my mother the trick and all of a sudden her spaghetti was almost as good as our Italian neitghbors. Frying zucchini blossoms stuffed with cheese (ricotta I think) in butter and parm was another thing I learned from a lady who perhaps knew four words of English, a sweet old grandmother whom we adored. She had a tiny property so we always kept her supplied with beans, tomatoes, corn, and squash blossoms.

I used to wash dishes at a busy Italian restaurant. They would cook massive batches of pasta.. drain.. then coat the pasta in oil. The reason for this, was just to keep the pasta from sticking together. They would put the lightly oiled pasta into large containers, and pop them into the large fridges. When an order came up.. they would pull the pasta out, and put it in a metal strainer... and dip the strainer into a large pot of boiling water. Basically, they were just re-heating it for a few moments, before putting the sauce on top, and then serving it. I will say, that one of the dishes that they used to make me, was a hot-pepper + garlic + butter ..chicken dish. It was fantastic. (I Cant recall the exact order of operations) They coated some cut up chicken chunks into flour. Poured a heavy mix of butter.. and some oil into a frying pan. Put a metric ton of minced garlic into the pan (the garlic might have been mixed into the oil. Cant recall). There was also chicken bullion (in a paste form), along with a heavy dose of red pepper flakes, black pepper, and white pepper. Cooked the chicken in that pan. Near the end, they poured some white wine in there.. and flamed it up. Once the chicken was done.. they added the pasta into the pan, and then served it. I wasnt used to that level of Heat before.. but it tasted so good, that I didnt mind the tears rolling down my cheeks.

Browned butter is heavenly. My post WW2 US immigrant German/Polish mom used to make boiled potato dumplings similar to gnocchi but bigger, or cinnamon & shredded apple filled dumplings, same dough, served w sizzling hot browned butter poured over. I was too young to understand how she never measured & that cooking is an art until many years later having gone through my own exploration of food & cooking. She also made raised yeast steamed dumplings that I think used a bit of sugar which I now recognize as quite similar to Asian Bao except they weren't filled. Those were served with gravy. I wish I had been old enough to capture the ingredients & their relative proportions. To this day I almost always brown my butter before frying my eggs (I occasionally try different chef recommendations) - so much more flavor from the Maillard reaction goodness imparted by those browned bits of milk protein in the butter. My daughters continue in that tradition. As a high school aged teen temporarily in Germany in 1969 visiting relatives, I experienced the heavenly deliciousness of daily freshly produced unsalted butter & baked breads straight from the bakery which I never was exposed to in US. My palate was expanded but I'm still searching for anything approaching that available in US. Butter has been vilified by bad science for far too long. Mangia!

As an Italian I don’t really have a “I don’t have anything” dish, but yeah, butter, parmigiano and pepper pasta is always a “I don’t want to use anything” dish together with aglio, olio e peperoncino 😂 p.s. Now that I think of it I have a “I only have one thing in the fridge” dish, it’s tuna pasta, I always have a can of tuna! To make a super simple tuna pasta you can boil any pasta, and in a pan cook tomato sauce (or if you don’t have tomato sauce you can make it “white”), then add the pasta in the pan, add the drained tuna at the end!

The big difference between the cheap and expensive conserved tunas being that you should add some olive oil to the sauce with the cheap canned tuna to get the olive oil taste. I don't care that the cheap stuff is already in small pieces as I'm going to break it up anyways. I'm all for using better ingredients when you can tell the difference in the end product, but this is a dish that I honestly don't notice much of a difference.

I never asked questions and never understood until later she was talking about WW2. To this day, I still make it and have passed it on to my son. It brings me warm memories bc it was comfort food at the time. I would have loved to hear her story. God Bless her and her family❤

It should not be kept in the fridge, or frozen. The color and flavor change (it becomes yellowish, mushy, and loses much of its aroma). Refrigeration shortens its shelf life considerably. Once harvested, it is traditionally dried in long braids. What you find in supermarkets is usually just the heads, severed from their stalks, but they'll keep fine in your pantry for a few months or up to a year, as long as they were harvested and dried correctly, and as long as they're not kept airtight.

Hi Eva & Harper, I’ve been meaning to ask you guys this for ages: have you ever tried the “Kerry Gold” brand of butter instead? It’s noticeably yellow butter, made from grass-fed cows in Ireland following the “European style” (i.e. higher fat-content than our whiter, plastic-tasting American counterpart), so it’s a great and easy way to upgrade most recipes into tasting far more delicious :) Hopefully you can get your hands on a nice stick or three during your shopping runs some day (I’ve found their silver unsalted boxes on the shelves of Costco, Safeway, even Walmart here in California). Good luck on your search, and thanks for all the recipes! Ali

My favorite is butter and sage, I make about 100 ravioli at a time and freeze them so I can have them when I get home from work, I have a sage plant growing in the house so I always have fresh sage, it’s by far my favorite. My ravioli is pork, veal, spinach, pecorino, nutmeg, white pepper, sea salt. I make egg fresh pasta and make ravioli. Such flavors are amazing with the butter sage sauce. Thanks for the video guys, love it. 🇮🇹😎🇮🇹

Butter sauces are amazing! And the most magical thing about them is that they're never heavy, even with all the fat in them.

My parents were born 1906 and 1908. They raised 14 children. This dish was served in our home at least once per month. Some weeks saw this daily. It was quick and easy, and when mom was away, most kids could prepare this. We liked to add lots of black pepper!

My go to pasta sauce (if its not the Cherry Tomato with olive oil) is Passata (always have it on hand) salt, peeled halved onion, garlic (optional) and pretty much a half cup butter. Let it be for a while, then toss your long pasta (Bucatini) or gnocchi in and yum yum!

I just made the Anchovies recipe with Linguene. I did add a little dried calabrian pepper. I had a problem. I made 2 portions. One for now and one for my lunch tomorrow at work. My problem, it was so good, I now have to figure something else for lunch tomorrow

I grew up eating pasta e burro with fresh parm on top. I’m first generation Italian, what wonderful dishes my mom (& dad too) used to make. Thank you for taking me back to those days. Grazie.

I grow saffron here in South Carolina. It’s really easy and you do not have to get up before the sun comes up to harvest the saffron!!

In the summer I have a garden, so I love to do cherry tomatoes, fresh basil, garlic and spaghetti squash in a butter/ olive oil sauce.

I LOVE Aj's!! I'm from Tampa, FL, an area with a heavy Italian and Cuban influence. I now live in Phoenix and Aj's is about the only place I have found ingredients I need for cooking Cuban dishes. Most ingredients I use for Italian cooking can be found elsewhere, save some very specific items...like certain pastas and better cheeses.

Many reasons to like your channel, but a top one---for me---is that you offer several recipes, and esp. simple recipes , in one video. That is a huge plus!

We made pasta with butter and parmesan cheese all the time when I was growing up. Still make it. If you don't use the expensive parmesan and pasta, it's pretty economical. Of course, when I was a kid, my mom would sometimes put hot dogs with it too. So, yummy. 😊

Hello neighbors, well I think we live in the same state!! I live outside of Sedona! My staple is pasta and butter. I have ate it since I was a kid. I have fed myself lots of dinners of noodles and butter, but you have blown me away! I had to go get stuff to make some stuff pesto from one of the first videos I saw of yours!! I have to try the anchovie and butter dish soon! I just love watching your videos!! Thank you. I am a pasta girl!!
