Hey Chef John! I started watching your videos around 11-12 years ago when I was in middle school. I taught myself how to cook by following your recipes. I just graduated from culinary school a few days ago and I’ve had the opportunity to work in some amazing restaurants in Chicago recently. I just wanted to say thank you for kickstarting that passion. PS: To this day, my wife and I use “Give it the ‘ol tappa-tappa” and “Round the outside round the outside round the outside” as part of our regular vocabulary.

Oh

I NEVER boil any pasta in large amount of water. For decades I have boiled pasta in small amounts of water. Over the time I have learnt to estimate correctly how much water I need, and boiling it on high heat, it is easy to add more water if needed and it does not stop the boiling. With that method all the starch remain in the pot that makes the sauce stick to pasta better. When the pasta is nearly ready, I add to it any sauce I want, tomato, Alfredo etc. and add meatballs, chicken, whatever. Using only small amount of water my food is ready by the time the water in large pot is just starting to boil. I would not fire my grill just for small amount of pasta, but if I am grilling some meat and veggies I can add some pasta on the side to char lightly. Then I can keep the charred pasta in a plastic bag ready when I want to use it. I can also grill the same time some onions, asparagus, tomatoes etc and keep them in a jar and add for my grilled pasta day.

I think the traditional way of boiling pasta in a large amount of water makes more sense with fresh pasta. With dried pasta, I would even say the less water you use, the better. And for dishes that rely on the starch a lot, I might add a fusion idea - korean rice cakes release a lot of starch. I sometimes make a weird fusion dish I like to call "tteokbokki carbonara", it is absolutely delicious.

@karenroot450

Good idea with the smaller amount of water. I’ve always done the same! I love your idea of grilling extra veggies for later use. Putting in a jar is a lot better than on a plate. I’m going to do this as my friends r now giving me lots of zucchini- one of my favorite things to grill, and along with onions! Definitely going to put a chat on them. Besides today it’s 113* and too hot to cook In the kitchen. So tonight huge salad with tons of veggies and grilled hamburger patties on top with cubes of cheddar cheese! It’s so good and very filling!

@@misterperson3469 I have an electric kettle, but I do not use it to heat up the water to pasta. I use induction cook top for making food fast. Neither do I ever cook alone pasta and wait it to get ready. I load or empty dishwasher the same time, chop veggies for salad, prep anything for next day, measure incredients and start bread maker, etc. Hence I do not stand next to the boiling pot, but glance in intervals while I do my other kitchen tasks. Most working mothers behave that way, they are multitaskers that create faster ways to get same or even better results. 🙂

When making fideuà (a valencian dish) you toast your noodles by either pan frying them or in the oven, and then you use them as you would with paella and cook them in a very large pan with broth and meat/fish/vegetables. Maybe grilling is a little over the top but getting some maillard reaction going to your dry pasta is definitelly a great idea.

Surely going the mussel/clam route would be amazing with this.

This is not a spaghetti dish. It's an impasta!

Or Fideos here in the US Southwest. We toast the pasta in a pan like a rice pilaf and serve it as a side, but same concept. The pasta is generally broken up or bought in a package just for that purpose. A 50/50 mix of pasta/rice toasted in a little oil in a skillet, without rinsing, can go a lot of directions flavor wise. I usually go the Mexican side dish rice profile myself because that is what I grew up eating. A lot of people go the Sopa route which is much more wet and pasta only.

I have tricked my family into thinking I’m a good chef. All because I found your channel years ago. Made this and it was hit. Thank you for teaching me how to make good food.

This method very much reminds me of how we prepare Fideo in my Mexican kitchen. Simple ingredients, big flavors.

Fascinating. Because in some recipes, there’s pan toasted broken vermicelli. And I guess with this, you are added smoke flavor and bringing out the toasted flavor.

@zonacrs

Fideos.

I was smoking some pork today and while I had the smoker running, I threw in some tomatoes and onions and peppers and made a smoked salsa. It wouldn’t be too much of a jump to purée a little bit further and use it as part of the sauce and add, some grilled/smoked chicken or something to it. I guess I know what I’m gonna be eating later this week.

I CANT WAIT to tell my husband what we're having for dinner! lol Seriously though, I'm definitely going to try this. Thanks Chef John!

When I make payasam/kheer, I always roast my vermicelli in ghee and then cook it in milk. Toasted wheat always tastes great! Looks delicious here too with your method.

Definitely worth a try!

Both dishes look phenomenal, Chef John!

I bet adding a scoop of quick grilled shrimp to this would be deli'lumpscious too..

In Australia lamb chops and spaghetti are popular.... at least in our family it is. Preparing and cooking spaghetti this way would be an interesting and tasty experiment.

I can see how some of this recipe took inspiration for spaghetti a la assassina where instead of frying your spaghetti beforehand youre smoking it which In all honesty is a brilliant idea. I do wonder though how the flavor would evolve were you to make this into a chicken parm. I can only imagine how the Smokey flavors of the pasta might boost the flavor from the chicken. Certainly lots of ways to play around with this technique! Thank you chef John!

I think i would make it more like a carbonara since the tomato based sauces don't agree with me. That said the next time Ive got the charcoal fired up, I'm definitely toasting me some noodles while Im at it! Thanks for the adventures Chef John as its always so much dang fun!

This looks and sounds amazing!!!! Tyfs God bless you

So is he wrong for doing that ?

I've seen this before and you might want to add this one step.. Shocking the pasta in ice water for 15 seconds, then remove pasta to a rake to air dry for 10 minutes. The pasta would be more pliable and the smoky goodness from the grill would stick to the pasta better. I think the one grilled pasta I saw was with the big rigatoni.. I'm NOT Italian so I'm sure I misspelled it! 😂😂

So very interesting. I will try this for sure.

I bet it tastes marvelous!

The addition of grilled eggplant makes sense.

your creativity knows no bounds

thank you john

Looking forward to trying it.❤😊

they say that there is no genius without a touch of madness

I love the reminder to place the spaghetti in the opposite direction as the grates. 😂

My family has a recipe for Fideo that's essentially the same but with the broken up pieces or weaves of pasta you sometimes see. The idea of grilling is fantastic and my wife is now bugging me for a grill so she can make it. Your imagination is wonderful Chef.

You don't even need a grill for this. If you have a proper hotel pan/rotisserie pan with a grill, you can fill the bottom of the pan with coal and light them up, wait for them to ash and pop your spaghetti on top of the grill.

I just watched a competitive cooking show in Italy. One of the team mates royally messed up the pasta dough. He then added spaghetti to the grill and i thought, i wonder what thay tastes like? The universe works in mysterious ways.

Oooh, this looks really interesting! I don't have a grill, but I think I'll try this in an oven -- see if the pasta picks up any browning in there while I roast some vegetables on a separate tray.

I had to watch this when I was a student, so now, YOU must watch it!!! 😂

Here's a tip for grilling spaghetti John. Use a Stainless Steel BBQ Grill Clamp For Fish And Vegetables to hold the spaghetti! You only need to flip the clamp instead of fumbling with tongs

I wonder how well this would work in spaghetti all'assassina

Made this last night! Delicious. I only set a little bit of the spaghetti on fire. Italian incense. Recommend pairing it with Chef John's Greek chicken marinade from his Greek Chicken and Whipped Feta recipe (also goes great with Assassini.)

Aha, spaghetti all'assassina taken to a new level. spaghetti all'ninja maybe?

Excellent. I've made Spaghetti alla Assassina a couple times, but it always ends up too oily, keeping the pasta from sticking while giving it some color. Will be trying this soon!
