Tips

  • Do not use very fine spaghetti, better to use spaghetti n.5 / n.7.
  • Ensure the pan temperature is correct; oil should warm gently and garlic should only become fragrant, not boil or burn.
  • Always use cooking water to emulsify the oil and starch, creating a creamy sauce.
  • Emulsify the pasta at medium temperature to create the cream.
  • Put a lid on the pan when browning garlic to keep the scent inside.
