Guy: its still the original recipe

Mark: HOhoHOhoHOho

[jazcatarina]

Simple high-quality ingredients are always the best. Reminds me of my nana.

[Pipisello]

In Italy we eat this when we are sick, to eat something less seasoned or when you are teen trying to cook for the first time

[MoriVal]

Some butter, cheese and Pasta water
"That will be 70€ please"

[botk]

Bro just busted at the sight of that pasta

[pastrocchioazul]

Awesome, only 3 ingredients (truffle is optional), pasta, butter and Parmigiano Reggiano. I would add some freshly ground black pepper too. Anyone can do it at home, so just give it a try! Remember to buy a good quality butter and a real Parmigiano Reggiano (most important ingredient) aged for at least 24 months. It will blow your mind

I'm from Rome (rise and born) this is the pasta we eat when there's nothing left in the fridge or when we want to have a "light" lunch. We call this recipe . Pasta burro e parmigiano.

[itheyab]

Waiter: Parmesan cheese right now

Mark: Oh 😮

[jasoncaldwell]

I used to make this for my older sister when I was a kid (sans truffles because we were poor). I'd add crushed garlic and a bit of crushed red pepper too..

[michaels.]

Eating Pasta like he is at a street food stall in Bangkok. Marc is the Best!

[infini.tesimo]

The amount of butter and cheese that went into that would set me back months on progress. I'll take 5 plates please.

Edit: Wow thanks for all the likes! Just to clarify, I'm joking. I'll actually take 10 plates.

[saintsbigghy]

Guys please, im italian this dish is what make my mother (without truffle) when i was sick, it's call "pasta al burro" or "pasta in bianco" is tipical dish for little guy or when the stomach hurt but you got to eat something

[Locutus_]

Americans: Why would anyone pay for chicken-noodle soup in a fancy restaurant?
Italians: Why would anyone pay for pasta al burro in a fancy restaurant?

Bro was edging the whole fkn time I love mark 😂😂

When chef Alfredo di Lelio first invented Alfredo sauce, the suace he had been trying to make was something else but he accidentally used too much butter and but he thought it looked really good and tasted it and he loved it so much that he named the dish after himself and served it in his restaurant. It’s kind of a famous story among chefs and the moral of it is that if you make a mistake on a recipe, and it looks appealing, you should try it because it maybe the next Alfredo sauce.

Bro sounded like Homer when he daydreams about donuts 💀

[simonebaruzzi]

just to make it clear, Alfredo made it famous all around the world, but pasta with butter and grated seasoned cheese is the normal way of flavoring pasta from medieval times up to 20th century .

[laarm]

Slice some ham into it and you’ve almost got yourself a traditional British carbonara.

[Jordeyleigh]

That “mmmm” was purely involuntary. His body loved it before he even processed it 😂

[kramroy]

As a fellow Mark i can tell you this is a very common Mark interaction. Everything from the "ohHooHohO" to the "nice move" to the deep appreciation for another culture is completely Mark. Great job!
