I tried making pasta aglio e olio. It wasn't great, granted I didn't have any pasta

[Basomic]

I almost skipped watching this video thinking "I don't have a pasta maker, I can't make pasta, " yet here I am, literally eating my last bite of pasta aglio e oilio that I made by hand. Easily one of the best things I've made. Thank you, Babish! I love this series, and as a new cook, I am learning a TON from it

I can see myself missing the dough completely and elbow jabbing the table instead.

As someone who is a huge fan of pasta, I had no idea that it was this easy to make by hand. I'll have to try this some day.

hey, i'm 21 and alone with my brother wile my parents are on vacation. I'm having a hard time lately (i've spend 3 months in psychiatric hospital due to sucidal thoughts) anyway i spend most of my days on youtube watching cooking videos (a coping mecanisme like any other) and today i decided to try your "pasta al olio" because it felt easy to make and i have a eating desorder. It was indeed easy to make and i sat in front of my computer to eat wile watching some more cooking videos, but i didn't watched an other video, because those pasta where good, i just sat at my desk saying to myself "wow those really are good" (in french) then i just started thinking about me cooking this dish for my gf (how is going through a really hard time to, i met her in the hospital) or for my childrens (if i live long enough to have childrens) and I litteraly started crying eating those pasta. Today was a really bad day for me, but you succeded to give me a tiny bit of will to live to cook those pasta to the people that i love.
I'm not sure that, as a cooking youtuber, you get told this a lot but your video made me cry xD

Thank you

ps: sorry for bad english

"You can probably make this with things you have in your fridge."

Brah. I have coffee cream, milk, white bread, butter and leftover chicken fingers. Time to get fancy! 🎩💲

My wife didn't believe I could make a car out of lasagna.
You should've seen the look on her face as I drove pasta.

[ZachHighlights]

[AlejandroGarcia-tbqq]

Made pasta Aglio e olio with olive oil, garlic, pasta, parsley. It tasted so good! Then I added lemon...


AND IT BECAME THE BEST PASTA I'VE EVER EATEN.

Macaroni and cheese, steak, pasta. All my favorite foods. I'm just going to go ahead and assume the next Basics episode is about potatoes.

[Lilrockerdude]

4 years later and this episode is going to be rewatched a few times more. Just got my pasta maker in today and I'm am super excited to make some homemade all from scratch something lol. Thank you Andrew for this series you really have inspired all of us to get daring in the kitchen and bring wonder food to the plate and our tummies

[MegaBookWormGirl]

The one and only time I tried to make fresh pasta, shortly before I dropped out of culinary school, I did it so wrong that chef didn't know how I managed to do it that wrong. I made pasta aglio e olio from scratch for my family today and I'm so freaking proud of myself. Cooking is good for the soul
