How to Make PASTA alla GRICIA Like a Roman

[@vincenzosplate]

Is Spaghetti alla Gricia Better then Carbonara?

[@thewhaleking]

i don't know

[@rkytr.2765]

In my opinion yes because it’s a bit lighter in taste than carbonara. It’s not as heavy as carbonara and the taste is very similar so I like to do alla Gricia instead of carbonara. By the way, very good recipe. But I like to add a splash of white wine to the guanciale… that gives the pasta a little kick of acidity. Try it.

[@pipo4158]

No

[@pipo4158]

Isnt tjis Version wizh peccorino in the Pan morr a cacio e pepe? Gracia has only cheese on top o?

[@thewhaleking]

many words you're typing have mistakes

[@birdman9265]

I don't know what is better: the pasta, or Vincenzo's passion for the pasta.

[@vincenzosplate]

Thank you so much! You can really taste the passion in the food 😍 Have you tried any of my other recipes?

[@DoulosHupsistos]

Every time I see how these creamy pasta recipés, getting so creamy without using actual Cream - I am baffled. Italian cooking is fine art, but anyone who is willing, can learn it. I will try this recipé in the near future. Thank you - again, for a beutiful authentic italian pasta recipé. 👍😋

[@vincenzosplate]

Thank you for watching and appreciating the authenticity of my recipes! Italian cuisine is indeed a fine art that anyone can learn with passion and dedication. Can't wait for you to try this recipe! 🍝🇮🇹

[@kaybrown4010]

Putting the skillet on top of the pot of hot pasta water is a game changer. The cheese melts more slowly and stays creamy! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@jmell458]

Yes! It's also good for people who are new to making carbonara to help cook the egg without scrambling!

[@bayanon7532]

Yes, wasn't that genius !

[@LorienDrechsler]

Well, I just made your recipe. I couldn't find guanciale, but I found the next closest thing. They call it Pig Jowl Bacon. I also made a special trip to the store to get some pecorino romano cheese. For 150 grams of pecorino romano, I paid about $10 USD, so this is an expensive dish. But it was well worth it! The guanciale was crispy, the sauce had the tang of the cheese but still saucy! And the pepper came through like a champ! Once you understand how this dish comes together, it's a pretty easy recipe. One that I'll be making again! Thanks for the recipe Vincenzo. This is a winner!!! 😋

[@vincenzosplate]

Glad you enjoyed the recipe! Pig Jowl Bacon is a great substitute for guanciale. The dish can be a bit expensive, but it's worth it! I'm happy to hear that you found it easy to make and that it turned out well. Can't wait for you to try more of my recipes! 🇮🇹👨‍🍳🍝

[@jameswingad3212]

I love this pasta more than any other and this version is right up there with the one from my favourite place on Borgo Pio! I love mezze maniche but if I fancy long pasta for me nothing beats tonnarelli. Also I love taking the skin and either roasting it alone or saving some when I make guanciale arrosto and blitzing it in a blender and dusting the pasta with this like a pangratato to give crunch. Then served with Isole e Olena its magical. The diacetyl makes the cheese seem creamy, the acidity cuts through the fat and is high enough not to be bothered by the cheese while the syrah in the blend really intesifies the pepper.

[@vincenzosplate]

Your pasta journey sounds delightful! 😍 Mixing textures and flavors like pangratato with roasted guanciale and a carefully paired wine elevates the experience. Cheers to your culinary artistry and the magic you create on your plate! 🍷🍝👨‍🍳

[@60frederick]

While you were tossing I could hear the creamy sauce…. And now I am hungry again. Thank you very much, Vincenzo, for sharing your wonderful video with us.

[@Welshwarrior85]

Vincenzo's pasta alla Gricia recipe is absolutely fantastic! The dish looks incredibly creamy, and I can almost taste the rich flavours just by looking at it. The Guanciale, with its perfectly crispy texture, adds a wonderful touch to the overall presentation. Vincenzo's attention to detail is truly remarkable. With such culinary prowess, I can't help but hope that Vincenzo will release a cook book one day. It would be a treasure trove of his incredible recipes, allowing fans like myself to recreate his mouthwatering dishes in our own kitchens. I have no doubt that his book would be a huge success, inspiring aspiring chefs and food enthusiasts all around the world.

add some Szechuan peppercorns to your pepper mix and it will take your cacio e pepe (or this) to another level

I recently attempted to recreate it, and while the overall taste was delightful, I encountered an issue with the cheese ball. Regrettably, it clumped together and became excessively stringy.

I'm so glad I found this dish. Carbonara is not my favorite but I like guanciale so much and now this is my favorite dish with it. Made it with fresh tagliatelle and used maybe too much pecorino (if there is such thing). How to fight strings when geting the cheese ball into the pan!? More pasta water at start or less? I got most of the strings melted with longr mixing/tossing.

[@vincenzosplate]

I'm glad you enjoyed the dish! Guanciale can really elevate the flavor. To avoid cheese clumping, use a bit less cheese initially and gradually add more while mixing. Also, adding a bit more pasta water gradually while tossing can help create a smoother sauce. Finding that balance takes practice, so keep experimenting! 🍝👨‍🍳🧀🇮🇹

Awesome video. I really want to try. Could i get some advice though? It doesn't matter what cheese I've used so far I'm just having trouble making the cream.

When I'm mixing the cheese and pasta water, i always have the heat off and i transfer the pasta straight from the pot to the frying pan with my other ingredients.

Hi there! To avoid the cheese from clumping together, try grating it finely. Don't forget to keep the heat low when melting the cheese and add the pasta water gradually while whisking. Hope this helps! 🍝🧀

No one here knows what an authentic recipe is like. Your video on Alfredo is a perfect example. Everyone puts cream, parsley, peas, and whatever else they want. Keep up the great work 👏 Besides pasta, what other types of Italian food do you eat? Grilled fish? Kebabs? Beans, grains, or lentils? I'd like to know! Also, I just watched a video on the history of Carbonara...would you do a reaction video to that? kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4a3aGOkp6uIhdE

Thank you for your comment! I agree with you about the lack of authentic Italian food in the US. Other than pasta, I love to eat grilled fish and vegetables, as well as beans and lentils. As for the Carbonara and Gricia, the difference between them is indeed the eggs, but the taste is quite different. I'll check out the video you recommended and let you know. 😊

Hey there, thank you for the comment! Glad you like the video 😉👍

[@fcfdroid]

Italian food is really an art! If you don't control the temperature it changes 😍

[@vincenzosplate]

Absolutely! Temperature control is key in Italian cooking 🍲👌 Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me!

[@fcfdroid]

@@vincenzosplate And thank you Senpai for sharing this recipe 🤌😌

[@billyjoedenny]

I have watching your videos for a while. I have learned so much , Including the proper amount a person needs to eat . lol Personally I could eat way more than I should.

[@markdohrmann5983]

I can't wait to give this a try! I've made your Cacio e Pepe recipe a few times and want to give it another 2 or 3 before I move on to another dish because practice makes perfect and it gets better every time! I don't know how easily guanciale will be to find around me, but if it can't be found, would pancetta be an acceptable substitute? I hate not being able to make the real thing, but I'd at least like to get the next closest thing if possible!

[@vincenzosplate]

Buongiorno! So happy to hear you enjoy my Cacio e Pepe recipe and are practicing to make it perfect! Yes, pancetta is a good substitute for guanciale if you can't find it. Keep cooking Italian food with passion and I'm sure you'll master all the traditional recipes! 😊🍝

[@obozomustgo5449]

Vinny, that pasta is a home run! Love it!!

[@vincenzosplate]

Thanks for the kind words! Always happy to hear when someone enjoys my recipes 🤗👨‍🍳🍝

[@drscience420]

I love your videos Vincenzo! I have learned so much from you! But I failed at this recipe! I made this with linguine and I thought I had the procedure down, but I got strings! When I mixed my yummy pecorino ball with my pasta I got strings! Not all of my pecorino melted as beautiful as yours. Please what did I do wrong! I wanna make this again and make it as delicious as yours :) Thank you! You're awesome

[@vincenzosplate]

Thank you for your kind words! 🙏🇮🇹 I'm here to help. To prevent the cheese from becoming stringy, make sure your pasta is hot enough when you add the pecorino mixture. Mix it quickly off the heat to emulsify the sauce. If it's too hot, the cheese can become stringy. Give it another shot, and I'm sure you'll nail it! Buon appetito and happy cooking! 👨‍🍳🍝👍

[@drscience420]

@@vincenzosplate Thank you so much Vincenzo! I think my pot was way too hot. I have an induction stove and it can be sometimes hard to control the heat. I was using the trick you did with having my pasta pan ontop of the pot of pasta water, but it was boiling. So next time I will use less heat and letcha know how it turns out! Thank you sososooso much!

Creamy yet made with no cream, amazingly delicious, rome new york

[@vincenzosplate]

I'm thrilled you enjoyed the creamy dish without using cream! 🍲 It's amazing how delicious and satisfying it can be. Rome and New York have their unique culinary delights. Stay tuned for more traditional Italian recipes on Vincenzo's Plate! 🇮🇹🍝

[@o0bananaman0o]

I make this semi regularly, I find it easier than cacia e pepe because the fat helps emulsify the cheese before it goes stringy. served on a bed of baby spinach. yum

[@vincenzosplate]

Thanks for sharing your variation! I love hearing how people make my recipes their own. 😊👍

[@AnneBeamish]

Pasta Alla Gricia is going to be my new favourite.

[@vincenzosplate]

So happy to hear that Pasta Alla Gricia will be your new favorite! Hope you enjoy making it as much as I do 🍝🇮🇹

[@ptrblz]

Looking good 🙂 I think this must be the pasta I once ate on a vacation in Italy in the hotel and I loved it, I ate it every day, finally I know the recipe so I can try it at home 🙂

[@vincenzosplate]

That's wonderful to hear! Recreate those vacation memories in your kitchen. Enjoy making and savoring the authentic taste of Italy at home. 🇮🇹🍝😊

[@ptrblz]

@@vincenzosplate I surely will, thank you for sharing the recipe 🙂

[@dallasgerlitz2271]

I’ve watched your videos for years, and your love of food is infectious and you always make the dishes so tantalizing and appetizing. I’ve made your carbonara and it was amazing. Would love to try this one…so much pepper haha. The outtake at the end of the video was hilarious. My whole family watches your videos! Hello from 🇨🇦. Ciao!

[@vincenzosplate]

I could never express how much this is appreciated 🙏🏻❤️ thank you so much! I’m really glad you tried and loved my carbonara recipe 😍 Please try making this recipe too

[@dallasgerlitz2271]

@@vincenzosplate You are very welcome. You have a great personality and we love your down to earth approach. Will let you know when we try this one! God bless and keep making simple, wonderful and tasty creations!

[@Nikerym]

Fantastic pasta Vincenzo! Looks great, top class! I first heard about it when I was in Rome. I loved it at first bite, so much in fact that I devoured two full plates in 15 minutes 😂 Of course I had to learn how to make it , and it's not that hard at all! I somehow nailed it at first attempt... Now, years later, I'm cooking it for my husband, who says that's the best thing he's ever eaten -- but I always make double the quantity than in this video 😅

[@vincenzosplate]

It's always amazing to hear when someone enjoys a recipe and even better when they are able to share it with others. It's definitely a dish that can be enjoyed in large quantities!
