Ciao my friend! I’m sure you’re going to love Pasta alla Luciana, please give this recipe a try and let me know 😋

[@emilaslan8452]

I like to make this pasta dish myself. Intriguingly, I haven't known it's an established Neapolitan recipe, I figured out the recipe myself independently, as a variation of the puttanesca recipe. For this reason, I like to use some anchovies in the recipe to make sure the sauce is deep and with this special umami taste.

[@tericroteau200]

As always,, Magnifica . Best chef on KZbin. Love you my friend.

Ciao Vincenzo, Thanks for sharing all your knowledge with us. I have a question about the baby octopus. I am land locked in Atlanta, GA and can only get frozen octopus. Will I need to adjust the cooking times with the defrosted compared to fresh octopus as freezing tenderizes octopus?

[@MineshShah]

Dear Vicenezo! I love your channel and have used your guidance in making authentic Italian food at my home in London. I even cure my own Guanciale to make carbonara! But I have a few specific questions... 1- I noticed you used pitted olives in this recipe, (as you did in a recent recipe for a sausage pasta). I have always assumed it's better to buy whole olives and pit them yourself, as the flavour is far superior... Even though it takes a bit of effort and time. Can you please expand on why a pitted olive is perfectly fine for this dish? Secondly, I loved your video on different pasta brands. I have always bought De Cecco as it is widely available, and other artisan pasta (specifically unusual shapes) when I can find them on sale at a discount store. I would love a video on which olive oil to use... I normally use normal olive oil when cooking and a more artisan one for dressing salads etc... Yet I notice you always use extra virgin olive oil in your recipes... Can you explain why you prefer this as opposed to normal olive oil when cooking? Much love!

[@vincenzosplate]

Ciao! I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoy my channel and find my recipes helpful. I'll make sure to address your questions in future videos. Grazie mille for your support! 🍝👨‍🍳🥰

[@TurdBoi666]

well he just released a video about olive oil

[@MineshShah]

@@TurdBoi666 yes I saw! Great video... But in that video he didn't really address my query, which was about using normal olive oil as opposed to extra virgin olive oil when cooking (Many Nonnas seem to use regular olive oil when cooking as I understand the flavour of Extra Virgin is often lost when using it to cook with) I'm hoping he'll drop a video on this issue soon...

I live in a landlocked area of the USA. I wish I could find such fresh seafood as this to cook with. Unless I special order ingredients ($$$$), it is not possible to make something like this. We get farmed catfish and salmon, tuna, shrimp from multiple places, frozen crab from alaska, and basic bivalves like clams and mussels at our grocery stores. If we saw an octopus, it would be frozen and probably wouldn’t sell, because most people have no clue how to cook one. I think either very hot and fast, or very low and slow.

I’m trying to figure out how to find a good source for the octopus. Usually with baby cephalopods, they are aquacultured. As in farmed. If anyone in the states has a preferred source please let me know! I need this dish in my life lol. Also, question for you Vincenzo. Is there any prep required? Or is everything so small in the babies we don’t need to remove any hard parts?

For sourcing octopus in the States, you can check local seafood markets or specialty stores. As for preparation, you may need to remove the beak and innards, but it depends on the size. Happy cooking! 🐙🍽️

Couldn't get baby octopus and had to improvise. Still I enjoyed the taste.
