I can no longer eat pasta, but when I could, this was IT. I prefer it with green olives rather than black, but as long as they're not sweet olives...




You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

If grannies private recipe dumplings aren't exactly pasta family, I'm sure her scratch built egg noodles were....add the chicken pomade & there was heaven
Granny last made those about 1960....

How can I pick just one. Lasagna, Fettucini alfredo, mac and cheese not from a box.... and I'm sure spaetzle is classified as pasta, too....

Spaghetti Carbonara

Which is funny because I didn't really care much for it as a kid, but can't get enough of it now.

I hate when restaurants put Alfredo sauce on spaghetti, throw some chopped bacon in and call it "Carbonara". That is NOT Spaghetti Carbonara!

Tie between Macaroni and Cheese (my homemade recipe) and the Spaghetti Carbonara that I ate all over Italy (tried many versions back in the states but nothing so far has come close...don't understand why that is)

That's right with the anchovies. You made Martin and me eat them on our pizza!

I might even mash in some anchovies, maybe throw in a handful of sun-dried tomatoes (both optional), but the oil and garlic are the essential ingredients.

+1 on Jim and Gustofer's recipes. Those are a couple of my go-to favorites.

A pretty offbeat variant that I really like was one of my earliest introductions to the concept of spaghetti and meatballs back when we lived on base housing back in the 60s/early 70s...little in common with its Italian counterpart, but a tasty variant to me nonetheless.

American Spaghetti and Meatballs
"Military Wives' Cookbook" (1969)

Ingredients
-----------

Meatballs
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 tbsp chopped onion
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 tsp black pepper

Sauce
- 27oz tomatoes or 2 cups tomato sauce
- 1/2 to 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (if you like a bit more kick, add the larger amount)
- 2-3 tbsp white vinegar
- 2-3 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp chil powder

Mix the meatball ingredients together, then roll them in flour. Brown in hot fat until well-browned all over.

For sauce, mix the ingredients together and cook over low heat for about 20 minutes.

Serve over spaghetti pasta, adding meatballs, then sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese to taste.




If you like religion, laws or sausage, then you shouldn't watch them being made.

lasagna is at the top of my list, followed by stuffed shells and linguine with clam sauce.

Let me add, we had one of the best dishes with pasta at a local restaurant. They called it zuppa di pesce, but it wasn't much like soup, but rather sea food served over pasta. So good, it buckled my knees. Smile

I like lots of sauces, from simple (excellent EVOO and fresh ground Parmesan) and vodka-tomato, and a favorite, lobster in tarragon cream.

What I don’t see mentioned here, which is to me, the most crucial aspect to pasta, is the pasta.

We got a Phillips pasta maker two years ago. It mixes and then extrudes fresh pasta in minutes.

Just add good semolina flour and water, and “voila”

Seriously - once you make your own fresh pasta, you really can’t go back to dried store bought.

Lasagna.

My wife loves Zuppe de Pesce.

Easiest for me is fettuccine noodles, Alfredo sauce, ground Italian sausage from the grocery store, and a bit of diced green onion or chives on top. Whenever I make it, my dad and I usually have pizza pepper and/or a few varieties of hot sauce for some additional “heat”!

Nothing fancy at all, but it hits the spot.
