Binging with Babish: Pasta All'Amatriciana from Eat Pray Love

[@HermioneOnABike]

I'm Italian and the way you said "spagheet" in the first version is actually how we say it in my regional dialect, so funny to hear you say it 🤣

I have to say I loved this video more than most I have watched, and that is saying something as I use these videos religiously to make dishes at home. The one pan quick version is something I haven't seen done in a while here and it makes life for a single dad who cooks so much easier to do and make on a weekday for a hungry and discerning daughter who has come to adore our meals together. Never stop making these dishes. They bring at least this small family together every night.

[@georgepickle2871]

Crazy coincidence for me. A few years ago I did a pasta making class in Rome and this was the exact dish we made. we made the pasta al chitarra style while the instructors showed us how to make the sauce. Worth it and to my lament I discovered that US customs would not let me bring guanchale back home.

[@RustyDust101]

Hehe, bringing food like that into the USA requires this new-fangled concept. It's called lying. When the customs guy ask if you got something to declare, especially food, just say no with a confident face. I know, astonishing, isn't it? 🤣🤣

[@marcpeterson1092]

So you were in Rome and you did not learn to spell guanciale correctly?

[@ModdingNewbie]

So (assuming you wanted to make this ethically) where would one go to get guanciale (or some similar ingredient) here in the USA? (Edit to add: Should we just use bacon?)

[@marasmithson6218]

A well marbled bacon with not a lot of smoke-aromas isn't the same obv. but works.

[@marasmithson6218]

Italian stores/Delis also often have guanciale if you have one near or are in a city

I can relax now. 😊 Your videos are inspiring me to stop being lazy and cooking the same old same old recipes. I know how to do a lot of things but forgotten them over the years.

[@PieroCioffi]

The second recipe is way closer to the one my auntie - who lived in Rome all her life - taught me ten years ago, along with many cuss words and screams. Only difference being the cheese (a 70-30 mix of pecorino and parmigiano) going into the sauce after the return of the guanciale, just before pouring the pasta in. Oh and she liked to deglaze with red wine instead of white.

[@AmazingAlpaca]

Careful Babish - if Carbonara triggers Italians, Amatriciana being like super traditional triggers them 30x. Still, I think that your first recipe is perfect, so you've got nothing to worry about. Also, Amatriciana is arguably the BEST of the Roman pastas, fight me. It's just *mwah*. Btw the pronounciation is Uh-mah-tree-cha-nah, 'ci' and 'ce' in italian are ALWAYS "chi" and "che". 'gi'/'ge' is 'jee'/'jeh', while 'chi', 'che', 'ghi', 'ghe' are "ki/ke/hard gi/hard ge' respectively. Always, no exceptions. That's why 'parmigiano' is 'puhr-mee-ja-noh', no French 'j'.

[@BrandenVD]

People who get triggered over food probably wipe back to front.

[@thebhoy2000]

Missing white wine in the sauce

[@AmazingAlpaca]

@@thebhoy2000 yup, that's definitely missing. Every once and then I also forget white wine while preparing Amatriciana and it definitely lacks without it, it just gives it that tang it needs.

[@henriquepacheco7473]

On the pronunciation angle, that's a hard "eh". Amatriciana is far more a Roman dish than an Italian dish, and the accent spoken in Lazio and Rome turns the "ci" from what phonetically could be written as "chi" in English to what could instead be written as "shi". Now, on the strict "official" italian pronunciation, you'd be right, but language hardly is that immaleable, and I doubt most italians would take issue with that deviation.

[@ytadmin]

@0:43 - is that pecorino romano digitally added later?

[@theletterbree]

lol I was YELLING that there's no way one whole chili just barely boiled into the sauce was not going to be spicy enough and yep.

Been tackling things in my Cooksmithing book that normally give me anxiety this year, mostly thanks to this channel. I had the most cursed luck with pasta, but finally managed to make a perfectly al dente pasta this week that I was really proud of (even if it was, in the end, a bit military kitchen; Can't help my roots). So, I super appreciated the 'quick version' being added at the end, and if I had any pasta left (or a counter space I felt comfortable making pasta on - I blame cats), I'd almost make something close to this to surprise the husband. Thanks, Andy, and everyone else at the BCU. I'm far more comfortable cooking, and better able to make use of my limited supplies and budget. Now the only spooky thing left is the husband's heirloom Chamorro cookbook...

All’amatriciana is traditionnaly served with Bucatini but Spaghetti are fine too. Don’t think that you need to make fresh Pasta for that sauce and canned tomatoes are always a better option because they are (often) more tasty than the fresh ones. What you need are : Guanciale, peperoncino, canned tomatoes, Bucatini, white wine and Pecorino romano. Salt and Pepper to taste. And you need two pots 😅

Making your own pasta is great but for some applications dried pasta is better, roman style sauces like amattriciana are better served with dried pasta because it releases much more starch into the water and makes the sauce more sickly.
