ANCHOVY PASTA | Spaghetti with Broccolini, Anchovies, and Breadcrumbs

[@cliffcox7643]

so glad to see you using a winco pan, store bought cheese, and off the shelf pasta... So many shows use ultra high end stuff that people feel they can't make a good meal unless they have all the top stuff.. This is stuff that's accessible to everyone.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Thanks Cliff, I try to make usable process and recipes. Some people still comment how “impossible” these recipes are haha

[@jessicah3450]

They sell Winco pans at restaurant supply stores

[@brucetominello325]

B man, did it Friday night. Didn’t tell anyone what was in it beforehand. They raved about the flavors and the Panko topping. When I told them they were really surprised about the anchovies! BTW we started off with your New York style pizza done on my wood fired smoker…awesome! Served an endive salad with fresh orange segments, sliced scallions and a white balsamic vinaigrette. Home made cannoli for desert! Thanks again For all the recipes and inspiration!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Oh wow, lucky crowd. Cannoli rips. Thanks for trying

[@Not3xactly]

I need more friends like you. Sounds like an amazing spread.

[@brucetominello325]

@@Not3xactly Thanks, when you’re retired you have time to spend in the kitchen, I just finished my annual cookie baking orgy…over 80 dozen and three fruitcakes that people actually eat instead of using them as door stops.

@@brucetominello325 sounds amazing. I'm not a fan of those super dense fruitcakes but I love a good Panettone. Happy holidays

Brian, sometimes I stumble across a youtube channel that I fall in love with. This happened with you yesterday. for 20 years, i used to teach cooking to all kinds of students. Your channel is "the bomb". I love every minute of it. Thanks, and please continue doing what you do. :-)

[@BrianLagerstrom]

So great to hear that. Thank you!

This is such a good late night meal. Thanks again for another great dish.

[@teressacooks7928]

Nothing better than a night with great tasting simple food shared with a bunch of your besties☺

[@byeorukim9951]

Yum! Added pitted olives while leaving out bread crumbs.

[@dsnyguy1]

I just love anchovies! MMMMMM!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Chovies for the win

[@nospoon1111]

I love this recipe, it's a weekly staple. Sometimes I like wild caught anchovies instead of the flat.

[@barbarareyes3005]

i do this just broccolini, extras sliced garlic and anchovy over pasta delish with pepper flakes (sautee anchovy and garlic till anchovy melts)

[@goldfiles]

I appreciate the equipment recommendations in the description. Slowly replacing ageing equipment here, so it's nice to see what the pros recommend. Also, I'm totally making this dish Saturday night...I can almost smell it now.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

goldfiles good luck! Tag us on insta with a photo if you remember.

[@HawkGirl69]

I’m trying out cuisinart to replace some stuff. So far I love it.

[@dsnyguy1]

I still love anchovies!

[@cher128bx]

Hi Bryan, Just finished making and eating the Anchovy Pasta Recipe. OMG! Delicious!!! Thank you so much!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Glad u liked. It’s a staple at my house.

[@elizabethcomfort2763]

We made this Friday - Delish! the house continued to smell good into the next morning. It was so good the two of us ate all of it, so unfortunately we didn't have leftovers. Can't wait to make it again, and again, and again! Thank you for your helpful videos!

[@skippp26]

Just wanted to take a moment to thank you for such an enjoyable afternoon/evening/night... earlier today I watched THIS video cause I was craving an Anchovy pasta... it is now TWO HOURS past when I'd normally go to sleep, and I'm about to flip a coin to see if I keep on watching your videos! I FELL DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE, and I'm not sorry! You're informative, charming, witty and engaging, personable, and you TAKE THE TIME TO EXPLAIN THINGS... I have a list of recipes that I'm going to try over the next month, and I CAN'T WAIT! Personally, I'm new to the KZbin video world, and watching your videos has given me some ideas for how I'm going to proceed going forward, so thank you for that as well... Seriously man, GREAT JOB -- So glad I discovered you!! Signed, One Happy New Subscriber!!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Wooo! Thanks for that subbb skippp

[@MHarenArt]

I've seen this dish, similar, many times, but your take on is next level. Just the right extra technique to make it over the top! As delicious as it must have been on its own, those crunchy nutty bread crumbs are essential!

[@Bread._]

Dude your food photography is so dope.

[@richardandlaravickers4140]

Always insightful and simple. Or sort of simple!

[@eiguch]

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Thanks Dino!

[@Sabbathissaturday]

Omg! I have the same ingredients ready to make something marvelous. Except fresh chili, fresh squash. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@kyliecakes9279]

Definitely going to try this. I might use zucchini and squash as my “noodles” but I love anchovies!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Let me know how it is with zukes

[@astro2191]

This reminds me of a Food Lab recipe for garlicy broccoli pasta with anchovies - it basically calls for max garlic-ization by using all of smashed, sliced, and minced garlic in the process; along with some anchovies to build out the flavor of the sauce. It's probably my favorite recipe in that book and I've made it more times than I can count (though sometimes I swap out the broccoli and whatever pasta shape Kenji calls for for whatever veg and pasta I have on hand.) I find that even with the craziness of using garlic 3 ways, its a stupid simple recipe. This uses all the same ingredients (essentially), but in different amounts and preparations and I love it.

[@moncreebrown948]

Nice video and that looks absolutely amazing. I love anchovies. I always tell people how good they are but I still can't sway them. Actually had an anchovy supreme pizza yesterday and it was delicious.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Anchovy supreme pizza and I’m sold bro

[@ACanette]

I liked this more intimate style of filming. it was a good stylistic addition!

[@caroloni4911]

Looks amazing. Yum!

[@JesseSherman117]

You did it. You made me finally willing to give anchovies a try. I messed around and made a pasta aglio olio and added some soy sauce and oyster sauce, and I think the fishy/salty mixes amazingly well with the spicy/garlicy oil.. I think the anchovies would bring a similar vibe, and this seems like the perfect dish to serve to friends, and when they say how tasty it is, you get to say "guess what bro, you love anchovies!"

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Yeah, this is honestly one of my favorite dishes. Not really fishy, just delicious. Let me know how it goes!

[@TheGoodChap]

Aligio e olio with anchovies is pretty authentic, a ton of people use it in aglio olio but I've never heard of someone using oyster sauce, probably not bad

[@dntwachmewachtv]

Bry, my sauce is never emulsified like this but imma try it again!!!! thanks for the recipe

[@maryanne1367]

I don’t like anchovies, but you’ve convinced me! I gotta eat that thing

[@brucetominello325]

I’m going to try this this weekend. If it goes well I’m going to spring it on my “I hate anchovy friends”! As always thank you!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Good luck, some advice, don’t forget a solid rinse on anchovies, don’t be shy with cheese and breadcrumbs.

[@vissitorsteve]

So glad to find your channel

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Thanks for being here!

[@sakeenasmith3164]

Been eating tinned fish my whole life. The way you open the can easiest is to first pull it UP by the ring and then take it to the back to get it open all the way. Loved your recipe, wil surely be giving it a go. Thanks for your awesome content. Great video. Toss toss toss ❤

[@DirtyHairy84]

The Italians make something similar called bagna cauda which I think translates to hot bath. It makes a great veggie dip or pasta sauce. Great dish Chef!!!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

I’ll have to look into that. Thanks!

[@TheJuzy]

Gonna use this dish to win my friends over on anchovies.

My wife is going to love at least one Brian after I make this for her. Question is do I tell her it's your recipe...

[@BrianLagerstrom]

haha just tell her it's Brian's.

[@ahctlucabbus]

This was a great inspiration for me to do my own take. Henche 'like' and new sub. What I did not however like was all the paper towels and wiping of the pan. I instead added cooked pasta and spinach (out of broccoli) to the pan in one go after frying up the chili flakes, garlic and achovy olive oil (+butter). Appreciate the technique to make a nice meal with what I had at hand last night :)

I hate the smell of anchovies but love the taste and flavor they give food when cooked down like this.

[@miniaturedaily399]

It looks delicious.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Much thanks!

[@Berkana]

I think what happened when you tried to open the anchovy tin was that you were pulling the lid back when you should be pulling up. Once it kinks, pulling back doesn't work because the lid can't roll back with a kink in it. At that point, you can only pull up.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Heard that. You’d think I’d know that by now. I’m an anchovy enthusiast. Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching!

[@ajnavo8612]

This Dish was born during the Great Depression as pasta and Anchovies(in a can) were super cheap….kinda like steak pizzaiola or Broccoli Rabe…my Nona and Papi made this for me for many years and this is the closest I have found online to its true recipe…I always substitute Panko when I can so I may try that next time I make my recipe. I would love to make a video with you and a more authentic method. Your so close but cheese should be an after thought(it was kind of expensive during the depression) and everything should be cooked together not separately(that’s the Italian way)

[@salocin911]

Love your stuff ... please update the link to the 14 inch pan Thanks!

[@steliosmaris]

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Thanks Stellos.

[@r.schmalzried7315]

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Thanks for trying

[@MiaNguyenmianguyen]

Amazing work! I know what I'm going to do with my jar of anchovies I just picked up.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Have fun! Reminder to rinse those things! this can get salty if you don't. But this is my favorite pasta. Keep it saucy.

[@MiaNguyenmianguyen]

@@BrianLagerstrom Yes! Mega salty. I just had a few with soldiers and eggs. I spread some on my toast :)

[@colinfuidge8660]

Made it tonight and it was very lovely. The panko breadcrumbs came out especially well. Will definitely make it again. And my missus has to open small tins for me due to many mishaps...

[@nw4827]

In my experience no one likes anchovies if you tell them they're eating anchovies but if you serve them something with anchovies in it they love it

[@jmg6012]

Looks good. Needs some fresh lemon squeezed at the end tho.

[@NDURcycling]

Short question. How do you clean your big wood board?

Italians make a similar dish called Aglio e Olio and I add anchovies, another is Orecchiette with broccoli rabe.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Legendary dish. I love Aglio. This is basically that.

[@adamlittleboxes4849]

bummer, the link to the pan is outdated. dish looks awesome!

[@dk.fresh66]

Awesome recipe ... going to try it on the wife who will not like if she knows, ya know!!!! I assume you only made a single serving here for obvious reasons and therefore a four or six serving all in the same pan works? Also ... how long do you think the garlic/anchovy mix will last refrigerated? Love your channel ... my wife and I watch regularly. Thank you!!!

[@boorayin2773]

This looked amazing, so I gave it a try even though my wife isn't an anchovy fan as I was hoping to woo her to the dark side. It was indeed delicious, but there's no getting around knowing that there are anchovies in here and she found it too salty. Good news is that I got two portions! Thanks for the recipe. :)

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Yeah the choivies need to be rinsed well otherwise it gets salty. Thanks for trying.

[@friendlybello]

Upset by how small he made that bowl. Get a big bowl for that pasta deliciousness!

[@embilbieblimblehead6827]

I'd add a hefty squeeze of lemon juice and a tiny bit of cinnamon mmm

[@shushi251]

I made this pasta and ended up salty oil one. I prefer without the fried panko and butter. Simple pepperono is the best!!!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Sorry to hear that. The anchovies really need to be rinsed. There is some finesse in getting everything emulsified as well.

[@amiehemenway2171]

Question: when you 'toss toss toss' towards the end, are you making a single serving? Or are you putting all the ingredients in for the 4 servings? It looked as if you only made a large, single serving...or were you reserving your wife's portion with the gluten free noodles? I'm going to try this :) All that garlic scares me, however. *yikes*. Love to hear you talk a bit about garlic, cooking garlic vs not/shallots/onion varieties. Enjoy your coffee! Thanks!

[@BrianLagerstrom]

The end was 1 serving. The recipe makes about 4. 1lb pasta all day

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Unless you like things very powerfull and Chovy centric. You could do 2 very large portions with 12 oz pasta

[@BrianLagerstrom]

And thank you so much for the coffee 🙏🏻

Damn dude. I have never thought of just hammering the sauce with anchovies. I've seen one or two used in the background. I will definitely have to save this recipe. My kiddos aren't huge cooked broccoli fans. Any suggestion for a different veggie in it? I mean I'll still make it and serve it with broccoli at least once because we make them try new stuff, but I think they'll like the sauce with other veggies.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

Actually doesn’t need a veggie, it’s amazing with just the anchovies

[@RCW-Designs]

@@BrianLagerstrom I might try it without a veggie, but we're trying to make sure our kids are eating plenty of veggies and especially those with fiber. Have a kid with some GI issues, so perfect excuse to include more veggies lol. My 13 yr old son is wanting to start filming cooking videos for teenagers to learn to cook. So he's been trying a lot of new food too.

[@monicahamm3353]

I recently used two tins of anchovies in a very large niçoise salad I made for the after-funeral party at church...... the issue with anchovies and those stupid tins is that that anchovy oil gets on random stuff in your kitchen, and you have to double-triple clean everything everywhere and your house still reeks for days!

Ellie Lissner I haven’t worked with anchovy paste much personally, but go for it. Could get a little salty becuase you can’t rinse them off. But I’d be stoked to see how a lazy version of this turns out. It’s a humble dish and I feel like making it with shortcuts are kind of in the spirit of it haha.
