    Thank you for this recipe! I'm Celiac, and gluten-free spaghetti is especially sad amongst all pasta varieties (too much starch, not enough adhesive ingredients), but this recipe works brilliantly and helps keeps the spaghetti from breaking into billion sad, sad little bits and cooking into gloop -- why didn't I think of *braising* it myself? Fantastic. Made this with some banana peppers thrown in that needed using up, and it was absolutely sublime (licked the plate clean and had a good, smug, full-bellied nap; no regrets).

    It's mostly very self explanatory, believe it or not. Let the star of the dish be the star, by placing it on top. Sauce type stuff usually at the bottom, unless it's like a very light pan sauce/roasting liquid. Never combine liquids and stuff that should stay crispy. Keep colors in mind. A plate in only one color (let's say soup) needs spots of other colors like herbs, a bit of oil, croutons or similar. Don't do huge portions, a crowded plate looks bad. Keep in mind the experience of the person eating. Don't put something on the plate that can't be eaten, that's where decorations end... Very common things that you adhere to with anything else in life. Like dressing up or arranging furniture. But of course a video is always a nice addition

    Used to make this as a very dry side dish at Villa Giula in Park Slope Brooklyn NY USA. We used pre cooked pasta to save time for the customer. This version starting with dry pasta is outstanding and carries much more flavor forward. Adding a few anchovies to the oil/redpepper stage will elevate your dish. For the gluten-free crowd: Don't use this on GF noodles (not pasta by a long shot). The noodles (not pasta) cannot handle the number of flips as you concentrate and 'char' the sauce. By the time the noodles (not pasta) are cooked....they have been split and broken into a stage just above paste (also not pasta). If using real semolina pasta, be sure to add a healthy sprinkle of Parmesan and minced parsley just before serving. For making this into a main, toss with pan-fried chicken or shrimps and serve with a spring greens salad with cucumber, roasted red peppers, and artichoke hearts under a glaze of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. UPDATE: For the gluten free crowd....you CAN use this technique with Barilla GF Penne. The penne is thicker and already in small pieces so you can't break it during the flipping stage. The penne is nice cuz you get the outside char, but some sweet sauce still hides inside.

    I choose to believe the real story behind this is that the infamous assassin Alfredo was under suspicion for a recent killing and had to take to the hills in such a hurry that he could only throw some pasta and a frying pan into his knapsack. On the way to the safety of the mountains, he stole some tomatoes and peppers for sustenance. After a few days of crunching on dry pasta and slurping raw tomatoes, he risked making a low, discreet fire. Delirious with hunger and not wishing to squander the water in his waterskin, he mashed tomatoes in the pan and tossed in the pasta, counting on the water from the tomatoes to eventually cook the pasta somewhat. As the water evaporated, he added another tomato, then another, then a pepper by accident, and nodded off. His nose alerted him that the food was burning, so he stirred it and tasted it, and noticed that the pasta was softened a bit. After another tomato and a stir, he once again fell asleep. When he awoke, his fire was out and his food was a cold and chewy mass, but it was the last of his food and this was camp, so he ate it. To his suprise, the burned sugar from the tomatoes had wonderfully carmelized as the fire died out and miraculously achieved a deep golden black color. It was so borderline acceptable that he survived, albeit a bit shaken by the experience, despite his history of coolly dispatching humans for money. Considering himself to have pushed his luck one too many times, upon rejoining society, he repented and became a man of peace, explored the culinary arts, and shared life-giving food instead of dealing death. He eventually made a video explaining the recipe named after his former identity to unsuspecting suburbanites with a disappointingly innocuous cover story, so that they would never know that the fancy name belied an origin in a camp cooking accident, nor the truth of his violent past.

    @@danielblack5196 I did the pasta sauce and water, not the red pepper flakes. But I’m going to try that. Just heating up spaghetti in a frying pan is okay, but when you allow the pasta to absorb the sauce while it’s cooking it blows the other away.

Not to mention if you don't get it right you won't go to jail for it. lol. I've since tried several of your dishes and was never disapointed in the taste and flavor. So thank you from someone who doesn't like to cook for makeing cooking look like fun and egar to try new things.

Really good *some people asked me how to do it with Mac n cheese… so here ya go Toast the Mac in butter and keep basting it with water or stock of your choice. Once burnt and cooked ad a bit more water and butter and choice of cheeses and other ingredients . Season to taste. I like to use a mushroom broth, ad fried mushrooms, but of onion bit of garlic. Cheeses are aged cheddar, mozzarella and parm. Damn good with a seafood broth and some garlic shrimp too.

    Putting ketchup on a hotdog is a way of telegraphing that you have bad taste. It's awful to the average human. Even that garbage baby-food looking yellow French's mustard is a better condiment. If you want to enjoy a hotdog properly, you use a combination of, but not limited to the following: deli mustard, stone-ground mustard, horseradish mustard, chili, cheese, coleslaw, jalapenos, cream cheese, dill pickle relish, raw onion, caramelized onions, cheese, cheese sauce, etc. There are a lot of ways to make a hotdog taste good, but ketchup is not one of them
