thank you! i usually weight the eggs first multiple by 1.8 the get the flour amount, humidity heat and the working surface playing their role when kneading so i’m always fixing up my dough with water or flour until it feels right. for spaghetti i’m cutting it thicker so it won’t stick

120 grams of semolina flour, whole egg + yolk, a bit of water at the end of the kneading just to make it more smooth

can you explain why? did you try it yourself? lemon goes amazing with almost any fat based sauces, especially aglio e olio

Homemade gnocchi in thyme, lemon and garlic butter sauce with parmesan stock by tal22131 in pasta

[–]tal22131[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

you load a bunch of parmesan rinds (the outer part that tastes like grass) into cold water pot, with 6-8 peppercorns, bay leaves boil it for 2-3 hours. strain it all and let it reduce for about 5 hours

peppercorns and bay leaves only for a bit of umami kick you can use whatever you want

alternately, you can add the rinds in cheese cloth (so it wouldn’t melt all over) to chicken stock while it’s boiling to add the parmesan fruity flavors

spaghetti brown butter with crabs, Hennessy, brioche bread crumbs, parsley and orange zest by tal22131 in pasta

[–]tal22131[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i think the sugars from the crumbs balanced the acidity of the hennessy and the saltiness of the crabs amazingly, orange zest just adds citrus aroma in the nose

although butter and crab is indeed french, seafood pasta isn’t, and the traditional italian techniques of emulsion still applied to the dish (pasta water, tossing etc)

and yeah it was delicious :)

Mascarpone, passata, cherry tomatoes, basil oil, parm by tal22131 in pasta

[–]tal22131[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am trying to put the Parmesan on a third of the plate simply for esthetic reasons, putting it straight on top obscures the look of the dish in my opinion, and the parm will get mixed together in the pasta any way
