Here's a thing I learned from my italian grandfather. During the last minute of frying the garlic, you can add a pinch of sugar, just a pinch. Just sprinkle it onto the garlic slices. The garlic will caramelize a bit. It's to die for.

@fink7968 2 года назад

This is very very light on the garlic for 4 servings, the video uses 5 cloves for 100g, which for a non child is a portion. For a pound of spaghetti you're gonna need 20 or so. Edit: noticed the ingredient list is from the NYT article which makes sense, but still absolutely would go heavier on the garlic here.

Your tip to add more pasta water to make it creamy. You learn something every day. Love your show.

If you can't find fried shallots (or fried onions, which I think would be a good substitute) where you usually shop, go to an east/south-east asian shop if you have one nearby - they'll def have some

There's an Asian market near where I live, which is remarkable on its own, because I live in a lily-white suburb of Cincinnati (which never had much of an Asian population anyway). But they didn't have any fried shallots, so I just ordered from Amazon.

I think I'm going to try the rest of it in onigiri or spread it on some yaki onigiri.
