I love how sophisticated Lidia is, and she doesn't even try. We get history lessons, language lessons, geography lessons, and she does it all with class. And she makes a mean pasta dish too. America loves Lidia.

[@ez8546]

I just made a poor man's version of this and it was OUTSTANDING! Thick cut bacon, diced tomatoes in the can and the shaker Parmesan cheese. It was out of this world. I definitely cooked the sauce slower and longer, added more salt because it needed it and added Italian seasoning. One caveat: it tastes better as a primo piatto. Just a side dish or first serving. It's like that second slice of chocolate cake that doesn't pack nearly the same punch as the first. Follow it with a chicken, beef or a fish main course and your dinner guests will be raving about it. Also be sure that bacon is really crisp before adding the tomatoes. It's a very impressive dish yet ridiculously simple.

Or follow it with porchetta. Those dishes in that order during a storm near the Trevi fountain was brilliant!

I learned how to cook real authentic Italian food from you and I have everyone of your cookbooks.. you are one of the best cooks I've ever seen! And as you always say "Tutti a tavola a mangiare"....

[@rosalbaneri1039]

this is no t a real authentic amatriciana!!! Amatriciana is without onion and garlic, you have to cook in low flame guanciale, after you have to take it off from the fire and leaving just the liquid fat. inside the liquid fat you have to put tomatoes and cook them in medium low flame for 20-25 minutes. After that, add the guanciale toasted and pecorino cheese. Put the pasta (rigatoni or large spaghetti or bucatini) inside, and mix. THAT IS AN AMATRICIANA no oil, no garlic no onion, no raw tomatoes

[@rosalbaneri1039]

at last you have to add black pepper

[@riccardoverde6629]

I come from Amatrice (my grandparents are from there) I respect Lidia's cooking, in Amatrice we cook Amatriciana in a very different way, it's something sacred (no joke) I don't say this pasta is not good (sure is good) I just say that, culturally, for us Italian is a very big deal, especially in a little Countryside like Amatrice, we have only that recipe (and another one "gnocchi ricci"). I Don't appreciate hate comments from other italians, of course, because I want to talk about this not argue. Ps. Sorry for my English, still improving.

[@katakurifan5213]

[@garpez]

Riccà siamo quasi conterranei, non capisco come si faccia a rovinare così un piatto semplice come l'amatriciana. Bah. Ci vanno 4 cose, praticamente si fa da sola, è più difficile farla male che farla bene. Però fin quando ci sarà gente che pasticcia come nel video, la bontà della vera amatriciana sarà ristretta in un raggio di pochi Km in tutto il mondo, quindi teniamoci il "brevetto" e sfamiamo i forestieri 🤣

[@marcovaldo8786]

@@garpez Se guardi gli altri video di questa poveretta, ti accorgerai che lei rovina tutti i piatti. Vatti a cercare, per avere un'idea, quello dell'aglio e olio: due semplici ingredienti (tre con il peperoncino) che con lei diventano sei, perché lei ci aggiunge il prezzemolo (che non ci sta male ma lei ce ne mette un diluvio) il basilico (che come è noto fa a pugni con il prezzemolo) e ovviamente il pecorino. Ma, al netto della sua ignoranza gastronomica, resta il fatto che se in America usi tre soli ingredienti, ti prendono per un analfabeta. Basta vedere a che livello di depravazione hanno ridotto le fettuccine all'Alfredo.

Cut the slices of jowl into rectangular pieces half a centimeter tall. Put it in a saucepan with olive oil and let it brown at the right place. Remove the bacon from the heat and set it aside. In the sauce, add the peeled tomatoes, removed from the seeds and cut into pieces. Adjust the salt and season with the pepper. Cook the sauce for ten minutes, turn off the heat and add the bacon kept aside. Cook the pasta al dente in salted water. Drain, season with the sauce, stirring well. Season with plenty of grated pecorino. This delicious dish, which many think originates from Amatrice, a small town in the upper Valle del Tronto, is, on the contrary, typically Roman. It was born about a century ago from the imagination of a cook of Amatrice living in Rome who invented a sauce made from guanciale and homemade tomato, which is produced only in the suburbs of Rome and which gives the preparation a particular flavor that characterizes it. This pasta, at the beginning, foresaw only spaghetti and its creator called it "Spaghetti alla Amatriciana" but later became "Spaghetti alla matriciana". It is not a question, therefore, of spaghetti "in the manner of Amatrice" but "in the manner of a chef of Amatrice". In Amatrice, spaghetti is prepared in a different way with guanciale and pecorino, without homemade tomato and they are called "Spaghetti alla gricia". Over time, pasta has also been added to the spaghetti.

I LOVE THIS DISH! I love that the sauce is only sauteed for a couple of minutes. If this were made in America, people (based on grandma's recipe for "Sunday Gravy"...would boil the hell out of the sauce...for a 4-5 hours...with a bunch of ground beef/veal/sausage...and a ton of oregano & basil. This stuff looks WAY better.

[@octpod3923]

[@jeanpalumbo3411]

Please don't put oregano in a tomato sauce because it'll taste like pizza. The only time you add oregano in a tomatoes sauce is when you make a pizzaiolo sauce with beef. I use chuck steak cut in cubes or strips. It's called beef steak alla pizzaiolo . Buon appetite!

[@LidiaBastianich]

Thanks for watching Robert. Felidia in New York serves this pasta dish with pici instead of bucatini.

[@robertholtz]

Thank you for responding, Lidia. The reason I asked (besides wanting to enjoy your beautiful dish) is because I have never found bucatini in restaurants other than in Italy and I'm a world traveler who loves to eat. I have never been served bucatini at any restaurant in the United States. Even to cook at home, bucatini is a hard find. It isn't a standard item for most grocery stores and even at specialty shops, it tends to be a special order item. Pici is an even more rare pasta. I've only had it once in my life but it was a meal I will remember forever. It was fresh made in front of me in Tuscany but they called it pinci. Perhaps I have to wait until Eataly comes to Los Angeles/Century City (which I understand is imminent) to buy some of this great pasta. I wish there were more places to experience bucatini. If you have any advice until Eataly opens, I would appreciate it. In any case, thank you for responding and please send my family's love to yours (especially to you and "grandma"). Oh yes, and next time I'm in NY, I'll be sure to dine at Felidia.
