  • I saw one recipe that calls for Anchovies. If that's a normal ingredient then that's a deal breaker for me.
  • I have a garlic intolerence. Looks like a pretty bland recipe without it.

    I really like marinara since I'm a tomato gardener, and there are plenty of big flavors so zero or very little garlic doesn't matter.

    I love it. I tend to make it on the spicier side though. And with extra garlic.

    I prefer angel hair over spaghetti too.

    Ah now, a man after my own heart. That's the only way to fly!



    For those who are curious, here's one of many decent recipes on the net:

    It has been a staple in our household for decades, really since college. We still have it as a side dish at least twice a month, sometimes more. Ours is basic; virgin olive oil, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, good Italian spaghetti, salt, pepper, and a little bit of parmesan individually.

    Yes please. A little extra garlic and maybe even a few chopped walnuts in there too.

    Another good one Spaghetti Carbonara but it MUST be made with Guanciale and Pecorino Romano Cheese.
    A little harder to make but oh so good. Cool

    I wouldn't care for it (hate garlic and cheese) but apparently Kenzi Blye and Martin Deeks are fond of it (heard them rave about it in an NCIS: Los Angeles episode).

    Years ago there was a little place in Kennett Square, PA that made a version with black olives and anchovies. AWESOME. The place is long closed but the dish lives on at my house.



    Let me help you out. Which way did you come in?

    Grew up with plentiful, cheap food. Was a staple in our house. Lots of chicken wings, too! Still make it to this day.

    We'd probably both use top shelf EVOO (I prefer arbequina / ascolano). Smile BTW, I add some sugar to complement both the chili and the garlic even though most recipes don't call for it.

    And of course a good parma cheese. I usually use a copper kettle parma available in the local market.

    Hmmm, what's for dinner tonight..... Smile

    We usually have grilled Italian sausages and peppers with Spaghetti Aglio e Olio

    It's amazing the simplicity for these type of dishes.

    My pasta go-to is usually one of the Big-4 Roman dishes, as the ingredients are largely inter-connected but, once in a while, I'll go for some simple aglio e'olio.

    I love it! We used to make it for our kids all the time when they were younger.
