Lemon Pasta | Gennaro Contaldo

A very special moment and tribute, to a very special man. x
Gennaro in Italy
Another video in a series of Gennaro’s recipes from Italy, some of which you, the audience, have specifically asked for, and others are Gennaro doing what the Italians do best - sourcing good ingredients and making simple, bold dishes with little effort and time involved.
Rather than cut these videos right down, we have left them a little longer and kept them relaxed. We think watching Gennaro in Italy is a glorious thing, and Gennaro does such a great job at being both inspiring and entertaining. So sit back and enjoy these as they roll out - we would love to know what you think.

This has to be the most genuine and emotional cooking video I’ve ever seen. Such a beautiful tribute to his friend. He’d have been proud!

[@julesmpc1314]

Yes. Remembering our loved friends is always important. We cry not of sadness but for "saudade". There is no bad feeling, no sadness, no regrets for those whom have done all they could to their friends in life; while alive. Tears in such moments are a proof of love and humanity, it helps us grieve and give value to our lives and the great things we have done toguether. Buon appetito!

I wanna make this dish, I’ve replicated a lot of Gennaro’s recipes and they’ve all been outstanding, but whenever I try to watch this video, I end up just crying my eyes out and can’t concentrate on what he’s cooking

[@AshleySmith19912]

First time I watched this, I clicked on it because I love his recipes and they all look so good, but by the end I was an absolute wreck. As soon as he sits down and says “memories” and starts to think about how much he misses his dear friend, I’m done for. I actually feel my heart breaking and there’s no stopping the waterworks. If I ever have the pleasure of meeting Gennaro, I’m giving him a hug (however I will ask if it’s ok with him first). I wanted to reach through the screen and give him one at the end.

Thiss felt like a scene from a movie towards the end when a guy misses his old friend. I mean if you see a scene like this in a movie, it'll hit you so hard, but movies are made that way to be more dramatic, but this isn't a movie. I really didn't expect this watching a cooking video, even when it started the way it did. It still seems a bit surreal to me, to be so touched by a short video of someone cooking a simple pasta dish.
