    Chefs are like the punk rock children of grandmas traditional cooking. The older they get though, they realize how beautiful those simple dishes are. There is nothing wrong with giving a traditional dish a “flare.” Just as long as it’s given clarity. Can’t wait to give this a go btw. I’m starving for some pasta.

    Salting the water is always good with fresh pasta, sometimes with dried pasta I find that salting the water makes it way too salty since a lot of dried pasta already has salt in it, but when you make it fresh you don't want salt in the dough.
