  • It is a very quick recipe, made out of only three ingredients and still the Cacio e Pepe can drive insane even the most experienced professional. In this special episode Luciano Monosilio tries to clarify and solve the "botch" made by Andrew Rea of ​​@Babish Culinary Universe (below the link). It starts with the original recipe, the most difficult one, to then discover the "fullproof" method developed by Monosilio to manage the large numbers of his restaurant. In the end the Roman chef shows a superb gourmet dish, a signature recipe of Riccardo Camanini, a cacio e pepe coming from a long gastronomic research, with a spectacular impact on both palate and eyes.

      There's no such thing as "authority" in Italian cooking. It is - or at least used to be - about using whatever ingredients were local to you to adapt a dish. This channel goes around being a bunch of snobs accusing literally everyone of doing their dishes incorrectly. Even when people live in parts of the world where they can't get guanciale, or pecorino, for example. It is the opposite of the spirit of Italian cooking; it has instead become what the French used to do to every other style of cooking where they look down their noses at everybody.

    I just wanted you at IS to know that many of us outside Italy have been appreciating your videos for years. I have enjoyed both your instructional videos - showing both the respected, original recipe along with multiple chefs’ interpretations of the sane dish - AND the opinion videos in which chefs watch ridiculous versions from around the world and critique them accordingly. Never did I consider them mean spirited or something you needed to “move away from.” It was refreshing to see people passionate about respecting the traditions of their cuisine. It’s important for non-Italian audiences to know where others around the world were appropriating Italian culture and changing recipes with no accountability. Frankly some videos were absurd! It was nice that you included Andrew’s response in your new format but at least his original attempt was sincere despite not working. As for Cacio e Pepe, it’s deceptively difficult! I’ve watched a several videos made by professional chefs from Italy, in Italian, and even there I found disagreement. Some start the emulsification by adding pasta cooking water to a pan containing only the roasted pepper and blending for several minutes THEN adding pasta, THEN adding cheese, often repeating steps as necessary. While I can admit I won’t be seeking out a dried pig’s bladder, it made me wonder if the result is edging toward the flavors of Alla Gricia and I WILL try both other versions you presented. So thank you for your dedication to sharing original and traditional Italian recipes with the world; I look forward to many more!

    This format is really incredible! It addresses the problem with these cooking video straight to the point and with masterful details that will guide cooks through the exact art of accomplishing the dish. Anyways, I am curious about one thing. On the foolproof method, how long does that cheese mixture last? Can it be stored in the fridge so that it can be used for future preparations of cacio e pepe? Or is it still better to scale down the amount of ingredients on the video and just prepare the necessary amount for a serving or two each time the cook will prepare it? Would love to have an insight on that.

    A good trick I got from the NotAnotherCookingShow channel when you make Carbonara but also works for Cacio e Pepe is to make your emulsion (mantecatura) in a double boiler or "bain-marie". That way you can gently heat the dish up and control the temperature and if you just don't let it sit without stirring it won't become stringy and your dish will be warm.

      I'm betting that he got that technique from Luciano. That's where I first saw it and a lot of people that I see using the technique credit him at least for popularizing the technique

    Recently subscribed to your excellent channel. Please allow two questions regarding the mousse in the foolproof method:
    1. How long and at what temperature can you keep it? Can I prepare it to be used the next day if I refrigerate it?
    2. Is it possible to make this mousse with egg and fat from Guanciale for a Carbonara? Will the starch mix also keep egg from coagulating?
    Thank you for your time!

      @@coops1234 Sure, - the traditional carbonara, not certain on the name of the 2nd, (think it is Aglio, dei fratelli cerea??) scribbled it down without a name), but the one with pasta/basil cream/chunks bread/anchovies/caramelised cherry tomatoes, and 3rd, the pizza dough from the man in Naples. I use it for pizza, as well as garlic bread.

    For reference, the water going into the grated cheese is ideally between 145-160°F (62-70°F) to get a nice melt without going stringy.
    I prefer the lower end of this scale and it makes a nice paste.

  • @tawpgk
    @tawpgk 2 года назад

    Chef, have you used sodium citrate rather than cornstarch to prevent the stringiness of the cheese? I have used it so well with macaroni and cheeses of the cheddar type.

  • @Feriand307
    @Feriand307 2 года назад +8

    Davvero un bel video, complimenti!
    Per curiosità ho guardato anche i sottotitoli in inglese e mi sento di dare un paio di feedback: il primo riguarda le temperature dell'acqua, che andrebbero specificate in "degree Clesius" (a 4:26 per esempio) perché per gli americani potrebbe confondersi con i gradi Fahrenheit; il secondo è sul nome della seconda cacio e pepe, perché è vero che "infallibile" si può tradurre con "flawless" ma quest'ultimo termine ha più il significato di "senza difetti" invece che "impossibile da sbagliare" come mi pare di aver capito intenda Luciano. Non saprei dare un suggerimento esatto al 100% ma i primi che mi vengono in mente sono "foolproof" e "sure hit".
    Grazie per il vostro video, continuate così ☺

    • @nikiTricoteuse
      @nikiTricoteuse 2 года назад +1

      Io sono madrelingua inglese e sono d'accordo che "foolproof " sarebbe la traduzione jiusta per infallible, poi per i gradi penso che solo gli americani continuano a usare fahrenheit per cucinare. Forse sarebbe meglio specificare quale però.

  • @pacho6821

  • @cybermanne
    @cybermanne Год назад

    Very interesting. Was there any particular reason to add the Grana Padana to the foolproof recipe or was it just a little twist? I'm thinking that maybe it had something to do with hiding the corn starch flavour in some way.

    You forgot one thing : pecorino has to be freshly grated. Pre-grated industrial pecorino contains potato or veal protein, and it makes the cheese stringy no matter what the temperature is 😉
    Just saying this for home cooks who would buy this kind of cheese.

  • @amerberg
    @amerberg 2 года назад +8

    io a casa la faccio come la prima versione, da sempre, unica differenza quando tosto il pepe nella padella poi ci metto un po' di acqua calda assieme mentre tosta, poi butto gli spaghetti dentro la padella con pepe ed acqua a circa 2 minuti prima dell'indicazione di cottura della pasta e faccio la crema di pecorino ed acqua (non troppo bollente ) in una boule a parte, poi mescolando tutto in padella a fornello spento, grande chef!

    Oggi, 30/4/2024 per la prima volta mi è riuscita la Cacio e Pepe grazie al tuo trucco del gel di amido! Grazie mille!
    Il metodo tradizionale significa rischiare di fondere il formaggio invece di scioglierlo e comunque servire la pasta fredda. L'unico modo infallibile è il gel di amido e il formaggio grattugiato finissimo.
