Gordon, I’m from an Italian Family and my grandmother was an amazing cook. She taught to season the water with salt, but that oil on the pasta would cause the sauce to slide from the noodles. We would drain the pasta and toss in a slight bit of sauce to prevent sticking, but so the noodles would not soak up the sauce and over cook as it sits, and people can add the amount of sauce they prefer. Or you can toss in all the sauce right away depending on the type of sauce, how much sauce you made, are you planning to reserve sauce for another meal.

This was bad advice on his part. A common American misconception masquerading as a pearl of old-world Italian wisdom. But the thing is, an Italian would never put olive oil in his spaghetti noodles.

[@91Mystikal]

Ok, I'm an italian too, so I'll write another comment on why this isn't right; you can skip my comment if you don't care. I'm reading a lot of italian that gets angry about the "oil in the water". I need to make a clarification first: Putting the oil in the boiling water it's not wrong, it's just useless. Pasta is mostly composed of starch. Starch, normally, doesn't absorbs water at room temperature but, at 50-70° C, amylose and amilopectina (the two polymers in starch) start separating itself, allowing water to enter, becoming a jelly (and that's basically why cooked pasta is soft and woobly). Basically we can cook pasta with water at 70° C, but we still do it at 100° for two reason: 1) It's easy to know when the water is ready (it start boiling) 2) Boiling water (or 100° C) kills most of bacteria BUT: Adding oil to water doesn't do nothing to the pasta (less of all preventing pasta from sticking together). Why? 3 reason: 1) Mostly because OIL AND WATER DOESN'T FUCKING MIX TOGETHER. You can see at 0:19 that basically all the oil is on the surface. It's like one of the most elementary thing we learn in our life. 2) Starch doesn't react to oil the same way with water. Oil can't "penetrate" in starch so it will not add any "slipperiness" to pasta 3) Oil start reacting with stuff at a much higher temperature (+150° C) So, adding oil in water doesn't ruin pasta, but it's just a waste of oil Different stuff is salt: salt mix easily with water and, when used for cooking pasta, it will be absorbed by the starch, giving it taste. There is not so much difference if added before or after water start boiling: to increase the boiling point of 1L of water of 1° C, you need to add about 58g of salt, while we use around 5-10g/L when cooking pasta, so it's not that great deal Different thing is adding salt directly on pasta AFTER draining it. While doing it, it will not go inside the pasta, but it will just stay on the surface, and you will just feel an insipid pasta with salt on it, two different taste. All this it's just chemistry, and chemistry have no nationality P.S. If your pasta sticks together while cooking it, you just need MORE WATER. That's it

Every one gangsta till Gordon cook's pasta

[@edoardoruggeri1]

Since so many people seem to get butthurt at the Italians trying to explain why Ramsay is using a - let's call it - unconventional method to cook pasta, let me just ask you this: would you correct a Japanese on how to make miso soup? Or a Frenchman on how to make croissants? Or an Englishman on how to make Shepher's Pie? Or a Russian on how to make Pelmeni? These are people from countries where those foods come from and that have been cooking them (or have seen others cooking them) since they were kids. Whether you like it or not, the cuisine of any country is somewhat "codified". And the reason why they are codified is because since these dishes exist from centuries, they have evolved (and are still evolving), perfectioning them. There is a reason for everything that is done in any of the world's cuisines. So you can't blame people of those nationalities expressing perplexity when they see something like this. Ramsay may have however many Michelin's stars as you want, but no one is immune to mistakes. I personally see that while Ramsay is a hugely talented chef from whose videos I learned a ton, whenever I see him preparing Italian dishes I am somewhat disappointed. My guess is that he never received a formal education in Italian cooking, as I see him making the same "mistakes" as I saw other people doing when spending 4 years in the UK. I'm not a master of cooking, but there are some basic reasons why, for instance, the method he uses here is fundamentally wrong: - oil in pasta: the oil sticks to the pasta and prevents the sauce from sticking to it and you will take from the dish a bunch of unseasoned pasta. The only time this MAY be acceptable is when you do dishes such as oil, garlic and chilli, where there is no real "sauce". - salt and pepper after draining: there is a reason if salt is added during the boil. It's because this allows the pasta to be well-seasoned evenly throughout its entirety, as salty water penetrates in the pasta. If you add it after, salt will not dissolve evenly throughout the pasta and you will have salty and non - salty bits. Regarding the pepper, I see no reason to add it now. Just add it in your sauce.

[@WingedHeartify]

+Врач ред It depends, though. I'm chinese but I wouldn't say I make the best dumplings or la mian or claypot rice. I'm also australian but I'd fuck up fish and chips. Just because someone is of a certain race or nationality specialising in such foods, it doesn't mean they're necessarily experts at it. You wouldn't correct a Japanese chef on how to make japanese food, but you may correct a Japanese person on it if they're not doing it right. Granted, Ramsay isn't cooking this right but the reason why people are getting annoyed is because a number of the Italians commenting are overly agitated or rude and not simply 'trying to explain'. But yeah, I agree with you on the things he's doing wrong. I cook pasta all the time, I only stir it once and it never sticks!! Wew

[@edoardoruggeri1]

Grace That's for sure correct, many Italians surely are terrible cooks. The reason why so many of us are getting upset on here is because even after tons of Italians explaining the method used in Italy and the reason behind every critique we do, foreigners still feel the need to tell us that we're wrong. And on something as simple and easy as boiling pasta. Lamian, by comparison, is much harder to prepare and get right. You need to be a rather decent cook to prepare a good one. The secret behind not letting pasta stick together is actually a very simple one: boil it in enough water. I boil 200g of pasta in ~2-2.5 liters of water and I don't even need to stir it once!

[@alakazamle]

+Врач ред Yep, the french used that exact same logic when california started making wine. Guess who has the best blind taste test results now. The Scots, also fine undefeatable makers of whiskys in terms of taste right? Nope, they were beaten out by the japanese recently in terms of the worlds top ranked whiskys. Your argument even fails at a basic level. Just because someone has been making something for a long time in the same way, doesn t mean they are the best at it or that their methods can't be improved upon. Guess only chinese and Japanese are good at martial arts too now lolllllll?

[@edoardoruggeri1]

Bad doggie In another comment I explained why I say the methods he uses are not appropriate for proper pasta cooking. For instance, cooking pasta with oil in the water makes it very slimy, and the sauce will not stick to the pasta, and you will end up with unseasoned pasta and a puddle of sauce at the bottom of your dish (it's something you can try by yourself at home, I'm not making this up). That is just one, I cbb to rewrite them all, they're somewhere in another thread.

[@alakazamle]

Wrong so very wrong. Sauce will NOT puddle if the amount of oil is not disproportionnate AND if the sauce is and pasta are allowed to mix in the pan or pot for a few minutes under low heat before serving. You should know yourself being an @italian food expert@ that sauce isn t laddled onto pasta in italian cuisine, it is mixed with the pasata in the pan (or pot) before so the sauce adheres and mixes with the pasta well. You can t even outargue an amateur in a youtube section and again critiquing a world renowned chef without him being able to reply back. Easy to sound @knowledgeable@ without somone to argue back lollll.

[@manleypointer6911]

Meh. Don't need pretensions of being a world class cook to criticize a world class cook. You kinda make it sound like there's no real room for disagreement, like it's either a) you have to be at Ramsay's level to say somethin', and if you are then you don't need to be here or b) you're not at his level so you can't say nothin'. I consider myself competent about making pasta (not master chef level), but I came here expecting a different take and that's what I got. Still gotta disagree with it for some pretty definite reasons, no disrespect to the chef.

[@Pistacchio80]

0:12 No, you do not need olive oil. If there’s enough water (common decent rule: approx. 1litre of water per 100g of pasta. There can be less water, but the pasta needs room to move in pot), some stirs every few minutes will be enough. Good quality pasta does not stick together this way. 1:05 No, you do not add salt after you drained the pasta! The salt has already been absorbed by the pasta while it was in the water. If the pasta is not salty enough, then you previously did a mistake by not putting enough salt in the boiling water. If you’ve ever swum in the sea you probably accidentally tasted that water. More or less you have to aim at that saltiness for your boiling water. Always taste the water before cooking the pasta. You might mistake a bit at the beginning, but then you’ll adjust accordingly and find the right quantities (it helps using a spoon, for example, to measure how much salt you are putting in the pot).

Olive oil in the boiling water is absolutely unnecessary.

[@mikec4308]

depends on the pasta buddy. angel hair may be one of the few types of pasta that don't require it but certainly helps it not stick since its so thin. pasta rice like orzo actually needs olive oil in the water or it will stick together in clumps even if you stir the whole time. any other pasta i would agree that it is absolutely unnecessary

[@boofstain1508]

[@pippox123]

As you add oil to prevent pasta from sticking you also prevent pasta from grab whatever sauce: oil makes pasta slippery and sauce goes away. If you know how to cook pasta, (pour it in boiling water and stir sometimes) you don't need oil in water. Also in most countries you can find poor quality pasta and that's why adding oil to water helps not to have it sticked, but this is just a remedy to handle up with what you can find.

@@HackerActivist It all depends on what you use the pasta for. If your sauce is oil based, then there is nothing wrong with adding olive oil to the pasta after cooking I mean most people would prefer to have a fat (olive oil) in their pasta than plain boiled pasta. Typically if you are doing tomato or cream sauce, you will add the pasta directly to the sauce and finish cooking the pasta in the sauce. The video demonstrates how to cook pasta, not make spaghetti and meatballs or penne alla vodka.
